Employees benefit from a comprehensive package that supports both financial security and overall well-being. Once hired on, you gain access to health, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance, along with a 401(k) retirement plan and an employee ownership program (ESOP). The organization offers profit sharing, giving employees the opportunity to earn an extra check once a month based on attendance and time-off usage, with many employees regularly qualifying. Additional perks include paid vacation and holidays, referral bonuses, and wellness-related reimbursements such as a boot allowance, safety glasses reimbursement, and funds that can be used toward healthy lifestyle activities like gym memberships, golf memberships, or massages. The culture emphasizes ownership, teamwork, and shared success, creating an environment where employees feel invested in the company’s growth and rewarded for their contributions.

The role follows a Monday through Thursday schedule from 5:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with regular overtime opportunities on Fridays, typically at least a half day and sometimes a full day, especially during periods of high demand.
