Ingredients for a Best Place to Work: Even with 95% of the employees fully in-office due to its standing as a production- and retail-based company, Southern Trophy House (asi/330675) earns accolades from employees due to its emphasis on flexibility. In fact, its team gave the distributor perfect scores in the “flexible work” category on the Best Places to Work survey. “Southern Trophy is a great place to work because it’s a family-oriented company that feels like a family at work, but believes that family outside of work is just as important,” says David Salomon, promotional products manager for Southern Trophy House.
For example, once a month one of the distributor’s employees visits children at underprivileged schools with his therapy dog and reads to them. Despite the fact that the employee misses half a day each month, management has no issues with his service, and the employee comes back enthused and focused.
