Often times we’ll hear people comment on how great it is that you can wear jeans to work or establish your own work schedule.  But the AQS environment offers more than just a casual dress code and flexible schedule.  We established a workplace that builds rapport, promotes teamwork, and keeps you healthy and balanced in today’s hectic lifestyles.   

Each year AQS sponsors an employee-focused program called Life’s a Zoo Week.   We hold five days of events focused on ways to make the employee’s life easier, healthier, and more fun – while saving time doing it!   Life’s a Zoo Week is also comprised of charitable fundraisers, games, competitions, raffles, prizes, employee lunches, and informative sessions from local vendors to promote a healthy work/life balance. 

Charitable Fundraisers - During the eventful week of sessions and fun activities, AQS employees also have the opportunity to donate charitable items for local causes and organizations.  AQS helps out by collecting donations for organizations like Goodwill, Hartland Food Pantry, Humane Society, and the Waukesha Women's Center.  Participating in our bake sale is always a fun way to donate... either through donating baked goods or buying a tasty treat.  Proceeds always go to charity!

Information Sessions - Various topics from local vendors are available to our employees throughout the week to learn more about Health & Wellness, Home Maintenance, Financial & Legal Planning, Family Fun Activities, and Merchant/Service referrals.  To promote a nice balance in their work/home lives, our employees learn about such topics as: caring for aging parents, nutrition and fitness, daycare services, how to prepare a living will... and the list goes on!

Games, Activities, and Contests - Our employees have a fun, competitive spirit and participate in daily activities for prizes and awards such as Brewers tickets, AQS gear, gift certificates and more.  Life's a Zoo Week allows us to kick back!

Life's a Zoo Week is a program aimed to have a positive impact on the employee's life at work AND at home.

We don’t stop there!  Our Wellness Group is committed to keeping you healthy!  Join AQS and receive recipes, learn about exercise programs, quit smoking or join one of the AQS sport teams.  We’ll provide you with the programs you need to support an active, healthy lifestyle.  Make sure to leave time for fun, because at AQS we love our food contests, silent auctions, and outdoor games.  Compete in the bowling pin toss, play in the annual softball game, or mix up a batch of your best recipe to enter in our Chili Cook-off!  Regardless of the event, we like to have our fun!
