Our Culture
Bench Dogs understands that culture matters and an important part of being able to thrive at work has to do with having cultural alignment.

At Bench Dogs, we aim to build and maintain a team who works well together and encourage a healthy, supportive work environment.

Being a small company comes with its own territory as well, and Bench Dogs embraces our smaller size and utilizes it to create a cohesive, collaborative environment. We value teamwork, knowing each individual, and coming together to achieve our goals as a business while working together to support one another along the way. Our team members are people who are proud to assist in the creation of national products and environments that citizens all over the country get to experience and interact with in their everyday lives.
