Over the years we have taken good people with potential, and sent them to different types of training. Techs and installers to manufacturers, and so on. We've helped people like Joe R transform from a useless kid to a product manager and one of the staples of our OL product.

We've employed young men like Sam while in college, only to see them graduate and return to us as the next generation of cogs in our wheels.

Why do you think so many employees have had their own family members join us? We like to take good people and try to find a position with us where they can be successful and in turn help all be successful.

I speak for the vast majority when I say that it is hard to look forward to retirement down the road, when the C Bennett family is just that. We are a family and I could never imagine the separation.

The first thing that comes to mind is the Dream Home Giveaway cornhole tournament. Helping such a great cause by donating both time and products for the Dream Home Giveaway as well as getting our other trade partners involved in the tournament. I believe this cross-pollinates many of the values we are conveying in our mission statement.

As a new employee at CB, I was eager, hopeful and confident that my experience -albeit from outside of this industry- would make this transition into CB go smoothly. The amount of help and positivity from every coworker made it evident that helping someone to be successful was a guaranteed goal of all the company and that CB was going to truly be a great place to be. If a business operates like this, you can be confident that there is that same helpfulness and focus on success, towards their customers and partners.

What immediately comes to mind is the St. Jude House that we volunteer our time to year after year. We shared a common goal to raise money for children with cancer. We have consistently done the right thing in order to help our customer and our community.

People toss the word "culture" around a lot these days, so much so that it's lost a bit of its true meaning. At C Bennett, the culture really is organically magical. The overall atmosphere is one of collaboration and consideration. There are no superiority complexes in this building. Everyone here treats each other as equals regardless of titles. The support of both staff and the community make coming to work a pleasure and not a chore. In all of my 30 years in the workforce, I have never felt so accepted and welcomed than I have at C Bennett. It truly is a pleasure being a part of the family!
