We choose to grind through with the right people rather than have it easier with people who don t share the same standards.
A quote from an Onsite Operations team member : I would describe CompostNows work culture as a pretty employeecentered company concerned and interested in the people that work for them. I think CompostNow puts a lot of effort into making people feel valued. The pay was very supportive as a living wage. The way that Managers make it clear that they always have time to hear what you want to say it definitely goes down as one of the places that I ve gotten to work at where the employer doesn t just care about their bottom line which was really nice."
