Our Core Values:
We’ve Got Each Other’s Back - First and foremost, we are a team. That means when someone is having a hard time, we step up and help each other out, whether it’s part of our day-to-day job or not. We’ve got each other’s backs. No questions asked.
Own Up - No one is perfect. We get that. If you make a mistake, own up to it, help to fix it, learn from it, and move on
It’s Not Always Sunny - Ag construction is a vital part of our rural economy, but it’s hard work. Whether it’s 85 and sunny, or 15 and snowing, we work in the elements, day in and day out. Because of that, positive attitudes are a must. We’re all in this together in every situation to do whatever it takes to get the job done.
No Jerks Allowed - It doesn’t matter if we’re talking to a customer or a colleague, treating others with respect, having a good attitude, and taking responsibility for our work is the utmost importance. Whatever job we’re on, we always give 100%, doing everything to the very best of our ability. We take pride in what we do and how we treat one another is no exception.
