What Our Staff Have to Say 

Here are just a few of the anonymous quotes received from team members who completed the survey. It is always encouraging to know that the Rhodes team feels appreciated. 

“I’ve been a part of many companies before, this one is different. They really care, they teach, they get to know the person and not their employee number.” 

“The company seems to be interested in what their employees think about working here. I have never really worked at a place like this before.” 

“This company knows potential and encourages you to be the best PERSON you can be, not just an employee. You are more than just a number at Rhodes. I love my job and I love what I do!” 

“I appreciate the transparency of Town Hall meetings and am incredibly grateful for the Profit-Sharing bonus that we have the opportunity to earn. There are so many opportunities to have our hard work recognized. I can tell that management is always looking at ways to improve our work environment and increase employee retention.” 

“Something unique is I actually wake up looking forward to going to work.”
