Operating as a family business, NYCM was founded in 1899 by VanNess DeMar Robinson. Now in its fourth generation, the Robinson family continues to manage NYCM with President and CEO V. Daniel Robinson II at the helm. He is dedicated to providing the same service and security on which this company was built over 100 years ago. NYCM is a company woven into the fabric of Otsego County and prides itself on being a large employer that provides employees an engaging and enjoyable work environment, both professionally and personally, and, in addition, promotes health and wellness programs.
Remillard, known as a collaborative, visionary community leader in the Greater Oneonta area, recently retired as President and CEO of Fox Hospital. Barbara Ann Heegan, President & CEO of the Chamber stated “that the nominations for John Remillard described him as a leader that has led the hospital through a series of transformations which has ensured the vitality and sustainability of Fox and hence the quality of health care for our region.”
Oneonta Family YMCA is honored with the Quality of Life Award in recognition of the programs and services provided to residents of all ages to promote health and wellness throughout Otsego County since 1883. According to Executive Director Frank Russo, “The Y is not just a building. It’s a cause-driven organization built by the people, the staff, the community, the donors, the sponsors, the foundations and the volunteers. For example, in 2015 we celebrated 50 years at our Ford Ave facility and the leadership of W. Clyde Wright was a major influence in that success, and the Wright family is still a vital part of the team effort that makes great things happen.”
BOYCOTT THIS COMPANY !!! PLEASE READ!!!
New York Central Mutual Insurance Co, 1899 Central Plaza E, Edmeston, NY 13335, Phone: (607) 965-8321 or 800-234-6926, just donated several thousands of dollars to a NY Senator (James Seward) that does not support equal civil rights and is adamantly against gay marriage. We have no room and no need for close minded hate mongers in this country anymore! NYCM is an ultra conservative Insurance company in Edmeston NY which typically aligns itself and its campaign donations to ultra conservative anti gay, anti middle class and anti union politicians and agendas! NYCM only writes insurance policies in New York State and I would strongly urge any self respecting LGBT individual and civil rights advocates to BOYCOTT this company and spread the word. NYCM is yet another typically greedy company whose owners that do very little work, inherited the company from mommy and daddy and reap the rewards of their loyal overly hardworking employees that bring in all the profit for them and then the owners and executives of NYCM pay themselves absurd amounts of money while they pay their employees who have been with them for many years a child’s wage of $11 to $14. I personally know of an employee that works for them and has a Masters Degree in Education, has been with NYCM for several years and barely makes over $14/hour! THIS IS THE PROBLEM IN AMERICA – GREEDY CEO’s, Owners and Executives who honestly feel that they are worth hundreds of thousands to hundreds of millions a year while they practically force their employees into slave labor. Any CEO or company owner that honestly thinks he/she is worth hundreds of thousands to hundreds of millions of dollars a year while their employees who do all the hard work are barely able to feed their children, is an immoral, greedy, sociopath as far as I’m concerned. This company also just took away their employees 15 minute breaks even though direct premiums written were up over 4 million dollars and the company is doing fantastic!!! – companies like NYCM are the reason that Unions started in the first place, greedy owners who do very little work and feel that they deserve the vast majority of the profit even though they do the least amount of work to make the company successful and have the least amount of stress!!! The owners and executives of this company are by far the most greedy and least concerned with their own employees well being than any other company I have ever worked for. New York Central Mutual Ins, 1899 Central Plaza E, Edmeston, NY 13335, Phone: (607) 965-8321 or 800-234-6926: Making tens of millions in profit by exploiting American citizens, American labor and the American Middle Class!!!!!
NYCM = YET ANOTHER GREEDY CORPORATION, A HUGE PART OF THE PROBLEM IN THIS COUNTRY!!!! – BOYCOTT THIS COMPANY AND SPREAD THE WORD – COPY AND PASTE THIS WHEREVER YOU CAN SO WE CAN BANKRUPT GREEDY COMPANIES THAT DISCRIMINATE AGAINST PEOPLE AND EXPLOIT LABOR!!!!!! THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU, THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR KIDS OR HOW YOU ARE GOING TO FEED THEM, THEY PAY THOUSANDS TO REPUBLICAN SENATORS TO FIGHT AGAINST EQUAL RIGHTS, MINORITIES AND GAY MARRIAGE. I WOULD ALSO RECOMMEND CONTACTING ALL THE INDEPENDANT INSURANCE AGENTS THAT THIS COMPANY WORKS WITH AND LET THEM KNOW YOU WILL NOT BE DOING BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY OR ANY AGENTS WHO WORK WITH NYCM. NYCM = PART OF THE PROBLEM!! GREEDY, INFLATED SELF WORTH BUSINESS OWNERS WHO PAY THEMSELVES MILLIONS WHILE SCREWING THEIR OWN EMPLOYEES!!!!!
