Provides a positively charged work atmosphere. We have our own “university” with a curriculum of classes and training for product knowledge and improving relationships with each other and our customers.”

The owners are truly loving and giving people that are very approachable. It is a family owned and operated company. The health benefits, vision, dental and 401k are great. We have a good amount of long term employees. We are closed on Sundays.”

“THEY REALLY WANT THE EMPLOYEES TO BE HAPPY AND SUCCESSFUL BY ASKING FOR INPUT FROM THE EMPLOYEES.”

“We have regular meetings for all employees and various departments where we get a “state of the union” including updates on issues that have been brought the attention of senior management. It is made clear that our concerns and issues will be heard- even though the suggestions may not be implemented, it is good to be heard and given an opportunity to discuss.”

“Everyone here treats you as family and welcomes you every day from day one. No one passes without saying hello or good morning/afternoon. Most important most everyone is willing to help you when in need if available at the time.”

“Everyone from the owners to the management staff are great. There are no egos, and everyone is treated equally and with respect.”

“I have been here for a very long time and cannot see myself working anywhere else. Everyone makes it easy to work here, from the owners to the management teams. They know how to treat their employees and they show their appreciation for us all the time with bonuses, holiday parties and day to day working conditions. I look forward to coming to work every day.”

My supervisor is very understanding especially when unexpected things arise in my personal life. It is a pleasant place to work each day and the interactive relationships formed work well on a day to day basis.”
