Everyone who visits our facilities says the same thing: Your culture is unlike anything we have ever seen. When we say we’re a “business of businesspeople,” we mean it. We are an open-book company meaning we share our financials with our associates. All of our employee-owners have a stake in the outcome—win or lose. We are a culture that learns from the loses and celebrates the wins.

Our culture is characterized by three principles: open-book management, employee ownership, and team-oriented competition.

OPen-book management

Every associate has a voice in how the company is run, and each SRC division holds regular, company-wide Huddles to discuss financial forecasting and progress. We believe in transparency. That's just how we do business.

Employee ownership

Success at SRCL companies is achieved through employee ownership and understanding the goals and financials of our operations. All of our associates participate in financial literacy training so they understand how to track, measure, and improve performance.

Team-oriented competition

We're all in this together. Holding a stake in the outcome means we win, or lose, as a team. Our associates take action to make sure we win by competing as divisions in meeting company goals. Each division also regularly implements MiniGames™ to help meet their goals.

What do our employee-owners say?

At first, it was all business for me. Come work my shift, keep to myself, and then go home.

That was on repeat for a few years until I was able to come out of my shell. Then, I realized all the opportunities were in front of me, just sitting there waiting for me to take advantage of them.

Don't just settle. Go out there and try to achieve what you want. There are many people here always willing to help and guide you on the right path. You just have to put yourself out there and believe it.
