For the month of February, we’re proud to recognize this good girl, Joanne!
Joanne is our Senior Systems Engineer Adam’s two-year-old American Brown Dog rescue from Savannah, Georgia. She enjoys long walks on the beach, the sidewalk, the forest, and the moon.

Dexter
We love this time of the month when we get to recognize one of our best employees!
Dexter is a 10-year-old, monster, tabby cat rescued from a snow bank in Rochester, NY. He was in the room as his owner, Chris Sirianni, initially formed IT Insights. Dexter is an integral member of the back office team. He enjoys being a customer service support assistant, and has a love for printer maintenance. Dexter has many hobbies that allow him to maintain a good work/sleep balance. He enjoys rubber band collecting, HVAC flow monitoring, and of course, napping. Dexter is a large foundation block at IT insights and we are lucky to have him!

Thor
We are happy to announce our April employee of the month, Thor!
Thor is a 12-year-old Rottweiler mix who spends most of his time with Christopher Bierasinski helping out the sales team, although he also has a flair for marketing. As the Junior Account Executive, Thor helps to make sure all of our current and future accounts are getting the most out of their work with IT Insights. In his free time, Thor enjoys hiking, belly rubs, and watching the fish in his fish tank.
Congratulations Thor!

Martini
Congratulations to our May employee of the month, Martini!
Martini, an extremely energetic and social 1.5-year-old French bulldog, does her best work in a team environment. She’s a marketer extraordinaire, and does a phenomenal job promoting IT Insights’ services and brand. When she’s not assisting Katie Hollenbeck in day-to-day tasks, Martini loves playing at daycare, snuggling, chin scratchies, and eating socks and toilet paper.
Well done, Martini!
June 2021
Apollo
Apollo is a goofy and loving 2-year-old Boston Terrier/German Shepherd mix. He likes to work in a team environment only if his brother Rocky is around to ease his anxiety. Apollo can solve the hardest of technical problems, but he can’t take down Ivan Drago. He is the newest employee to the IT Insights team and has done a phenomenal job jumping in and solving client issues. When he is not helping Anthony Mangiola with technical problems, he loves to go to daycare, play fetch, take naps upside down, and cuddle with his brother Rocky.
July 2021
Rocky
Rocky is a 3-year-old soft and cuddly Lab/Pitty mix who likes to manage IT Insights’ employees to ensure business is getting done. Although Rocky is a big, 77 lb. baby, he likes to act tough by barking at everything that walks down the street. When playing with other dogs, he enjoys being the referee to make sure things do not get out of hand, a great quality to have to keep Anthony Mangiola hard at work. He’ll do anything for food, so he is very motivated to get his work done so he can be rewarded with his paycheck of yummy treats. During his time off, Rocky loves to take naps in his recliner, sunbathe on the deck, wrestle with his brother Apollo, and chase the neighbor’s cats to keep them off his lawn.

Bronwyn
Bronwyn (Wynnie) joined IT Insights in November 2021 as a new kitten, barely 4 months old. She has taken on the role of Vice President of Purchasing with a focus on boxes! She enjoys every aspect of her job and appreciates the opportunity to work with other kittens in IT. In her spare time, she loves parkour, virtual tree climbing, bird watching and bare paw extreme fighting but nothing beats a good nap.
Congratulations on being named August Employee of the Month Wynnie!
September 2021
Bud
We are happy to award Bud September Employee of the Month. Bud is a 9-year-old boxer mix being fostered by Christopher Bierasinski. Bud joins Chris from Operation Freedom Ride, a local animal rescue that saves dogs and cats and helps them find their forever home. Bud is a very helpful member of the sales team, and in his free time enjoys naps, treats, and walks. He works well with his two team members Taco and Thor, and absolutely loves all other dogs. To see about adopting Bud, or one of his friends from OFR, check out the adoption page and see who is available.
October 2021
Ty
Ty is a 14 year old Maltese Poodle, which in human years is 98. So he’s been around awhile and actually knows more about IT than anyone else on staff. He often brags about how he taught Bill Gates and Steve Jobs their first lessons in BASIC code. Apart from telling old timey stories like a hairier Abe Simpson, he also enjoys barking at any noise, real or imagined, and staring off into space. His senior leadership brings a unique perspective to our team and we’re all very fortunate to have him.
Congratulations Ty!
November 2021
Honey
This month, we are proud to present our Employee of the Month award to our newest hire, Honey! Honey is a 12-year-old Beagle mix that works on Account Executive Christopher Bierasinski‘s team. She was being fostered by Chris and was officially adopted on Thanksgiving Day! Honey is a very gentle soul who enjoys naps, lounging on her blanket, sitting in the sun, and snuggling. She is happy to join Chris’ team that also consists of previous winners Taco and Thor, who are showing her how to get the most treats out of dad. Congrats Honey!
