WHY WE THINK WE'RE A GREAT PLACE TO WORK

At Syfan Logistics, our mission is supported by five company values: community, innovation, service, people, and growth. We provide continual training and development opportunities, lunch and learns, college football kickoff events, and meals brought in at least once per month. We work hard and play hard with our softball and golf teams, a gym, and company-endorsed 5Ks and other running events. We serve Jesus by serving others. Every month, Syfan dedicates 10 percent of the company's direct profits to the Syfan Foundation.

We focus on making sure employees have a healthy life, both at work and outside of work. As we did before Covid, once we go back to the office, Sysdig will provide company-catered lunches five days a week, plus budgeted lunch funds for teams and remote employees. Employees receive monthly stipends for activities they enjoy and can expense up to $100 per month for house cleaning. Since Covid, we've added outside mental health training, extended most holidays, and added an entire week off at the end of the year.

At Table XI, we've built a culture of mutual respect and support--and the systems to maintain it. For us, culture isn't about perks. It's about intention. We want everyone to feel safe taking risks. We developed a sponsorship program that pairs each person with a mentor when they start. We developed a low-tech way to facilitate conversations about career development, using sticky notes to quickly share and prioritize goals. We're open about failure, too, with the CEO sharing his three biggest mistakes.

The culture at TaylorMade Experience is inclusive, collaborative, and nurturing. Every staff member contributes ideas to further TME's success. TME offers subsidized workouts with a personal trainer twice a week, along with regular team outings -- celebratory meals, educational engagements, spa days, and team-building activities -- along with many other perks, like a fully stocked kitchen. There is never any question that hard work is appreciated and properly recognized. We take the saying "work hard, play hard" to the next level.

Unique to TCG is our employee happiness department, led by an executive team member. The employee happiness department organizes social and team-building events and activities for staff and their families; administers TCG's many perks; facilitates the company's social intranet site; and participates in career reviews with staff and their respective managers. Their work has helped foster a sense of community among staff that are dispersed geographically and across projects, and let staff know that the company appreciates their contributions.
