• There are a few main reasons I like working at Prime. One, I have always been outgoing and considered myself a “people person”, working here at Prime, I get to talk with people and build new working relationships on a daily basis. Second, I grew up around both the dairy and construction industries, and Prime has given me the opportunity to work in both fields, which I really enjoy. Another reason I like working at Prime, is the culture. Prime is a “small” family owned business and that’s exactly what it feels like working here. I have worked for many different companies over the years, but none have ever felt as close to home as Prime does."

You get to wear different hats and not stuck in your corner all day: you can learn different aspects of the company ie. Great place to gain valuable experience if just starting to join workforce. Great benefits, training cycles and employee appreciation trends to consider. Being valued for what you bring to the company and being rewarded accordingly. Culture is great at Prime: Great group of people who are not afraid or hesitant to communicate with colleagues. Training cycles and moderate supervision before you step into the work functions. Open door and better communication/relations with your supervisors and colleagues. Employee recognition and contribution throughout the chain. To name a few."

• Working for Prime is like working for a second family. And I don’t mean that in just the sense of “I love my workers.” But I truly mean when I say they are a second family. You have your family you go home to, but I feel like I have my coworkers that I get to spend almost every day with. Everyone here is so hard working and so dedicated, that it inspires you to be a better employee and coworker. We all care for each other. One piece doesn’t work without the other. I think Prime has done a great job of hiring people that are good for the company but also good for each other. I spend so much time with everyone, that I look forward to seeing them every week.
