Our employees are teammates and shareholders, who have skin in the game and a seat at the table. As a 96 percent employee-owned business, we live our mission fully and passionately every day. Our commitment to equity, dignity, and wellness, and our culture of learning are also reflected in our industry-leading benefits program, which provides fully paid healthcare and covers a broad range of wellness expenses, including those associated with physical fitness, mental health, nutrition, and anything else contributing to an employee’s wellbeing.”
