Employee recognition

We hold an annual gala to celebrate our employees. It’s a chance to dress up and let loose with our peers, and an opportunity to recognize achievements that have been earned throughout the year. For example, it’s a time to acknowledge employees who have been recognized as “Rockstars” of the industry. And a time to appreciate the shining examples of our “Be” values.
