I appreciate you taking the time to share this review. Our associates lay the foundation of success at our company, and I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the work/life balance and culture within the team. I am proud of the work and innovation our Information Technology department has produced. This includes designing and building new unique business systems, cloud migration efforts, and has been awarded several patents. We couldn’t do this without the strong technical capabilities of our team. Jim Frank – Chief Information Officer
