Area Development
Global Group and emphasisHR plan to relocate operations to new location to support the companies' continued growth in the Chicago suburb of Deerfield, Illinois.

Located in the Lake County village of Deerfield, 27 miles north of Chicago, company officials reported “by moving to this new location, both companies believe they have managed to create a forward-thinking employee experience that will be embraced by many workers today.”

“This ideal location provides emphasisHR and Global Group the ability to attract even more of the best and brightest employees in the Chicagoland area due to a very commuter-friendly location. Metra can deliver City dwellers directly to this new location in 30 minutes or less,” according to company officials.

“Many companies have chosen to break from tradition and move to an open floor plan in a collaborative office space. Always aspiring to be at the cutting edge, emphasisHR and Global Group are proud to blaze a new trail by embracing a new trend, the "hybrid open office plan,” officials explained. “An office environment that welcomes open collaboration but pays homage to semi-private areas and offices to promote productivity. Such offices are circled around the main "hub" of the office, where employees and partners can gather, have meetings and enjoy breaks and/or lunch together."

emphasisHR and Global Group believe this collaborative, yet productive, layout of the new offices will encourage teamwork and innovation, and lead to new cross-market opportunities.
