I was really thrilled about the opportunity to come and be a part of it, and help the company build on top of what they’ve already achieved.” Remdal’s unique culture is reflected in the longstanding loyalty of its staff. According to Ken, they have many employees that have been with the company more than 20 years, which he describes as “unprecedented in the industry.” Nima Banihashemi, for example, is the company’s building envelope and waterproofing operation manager, and he joined Remdal about 16 years ago. He describes the company as a “community,” just like their mission statement says. “We see ourselves, our crews, and the people that work for us and with us as part of our community,” he explains. “As such, we take care of each other. We make business decisions with our people in mind. That’s the biggest difference about working here.” “I think that our people trust our integrity,” Ken adds. “They know that when we articulate our core values, we actually believe in them and we’re actually willing to be held accountable to them. There’s a lot of trust there, and I think that’s why we have a lot of people who’ve been here a long time.” Plus, because of the company’s shared ownership model, their people also have an entrepreneurial motivation to stick around and do their best work. “We give our people an opportunity to prosper financially if they do a great job leading our crews,” Ken says. “So it’s that combination of community, trust, and entrepreneurial opportunity – those three things are why we’ve been able to lead the industry in terms of retaining great people.”
