Diversity, not conformity makes us a Best Place to Work!
netlogx is pleased and proud to have been awarded a Best Place to Work. It validates our strategic decision to
intentionally build the company to be diverse by design. We work hard to create an environment to develop trust,
pride and camaraderie within our company. Each of our employees is empowered to make decisions on day-to-
day business matters. Each employee personally assumes the responsibility of making your experience a positive
one. We believe this approach brings out the best in all of us, and by doing so improves the quality of life around us.
‘It’s a give and take’
Production team lead Bill Campbell has been with MVO USA
for nearly four years. What stands out during a spirited chat are his
easygoing demeanor and commitment to team members.
“It’s the first time I’ve ever worked for a company where I feel cared
about,” he expresses. “Not just upper management, but the rest of the people
in the shop – everybody takes a lot of value in the people they work with.”
In conveying his leadership style, Campbell imparts that “it’s a
give and take” focused on “keeping the morale up, having fun with it
and not being too stressful.”
The high-volume manufacturing facility has experienced 100%
on-time delivery for more than a year, and no quality concerns from
customers over the past 12 months.
“That’s a real testament to his (Campbell’s) management,” a beaming
Borden-Dennis affirms.
Chocolate and chuckles
Watch out! Hershey’s kisses are on the loose.
Employees faced a daunting, but “sweet” challenge at the 2015
staff holiday gathering: unwrapping as many candy kisses as possible
within one minute …while wearing oven mitts!
“It was so much fun!” Borden-Dennis recalls with a laugh.
“Everyone was interacting from different departments and different
areas. We wanted to make sure people got to know each other.”
Ugly Christmas sweaters sparkled, shimmered and stunned. Employees
rolled up their sleeves for games of pool and air hockey. A piñata burst,
dropping prizes of all sizes – including a gift card for a flat-screen TV.
Employee recognition, however, occurs year-round. And
birthdays are a big deal, evidenced by colorful balloons adorning Sal
Miano’s workspace.
“These are our steering gears we provide to a racing series in
Germany,” he explains, gesturing to a current project. “We’re doing a
rebuild. They sent them into us for service. We inspect them, tear
them apart, test them and then send them back.”
What about those balloons?
“It was my birthday over the weekend, and Tammy and one of
the guys from the shop came in on Sunday and (decorated). Things
like that go a long way.”
Longtime employee Dan Crafton calls MVO USA “one big family.”
