- For Immediate Release -

Allen Lund Company was recently named one of the Best Places to Work in Southern California by the Best Companies Group (BCG).


Director of Human Resources Matt Barnes reflected, "When I was hired as Director of Human Resources at Allen Lund Company, after seeing first-hand the company culture, the numerous long-term tenured staff, and the growth and financial stability of ALC, one of the first comments I made was, 'There should be a line of applicants wrapped around the building trying to get a career started at this company.' I’ve worked for some great companies in my career, but Allen Lund Company exceeds the others in every possible category. Being recognized as one of the Best Places to Work in Southern California, validates my initial feelings about how special ALC is and I’m proud to have the opportunity in my role to keep raising the standard for engagement and employee satisfaction for years to come." 


The winners were chosen based on comprehensive responses from anonymous employee surveys and were ranked across three categories: small, medium, and large companies. Among the items considered in the employee surveys were corporate culture, training and development, salary and benefits, and overall employee satisfaction.

 

Executive Vice President David Lund exclaimed, "It is very exciting to be named one of Southern California's Best Places to Work. I want to congratulate all Allen Lund Company employees because they are the reason we received this award. They live the culture, they make ALC successful, and it is their actions that are being recognized. Every department and every person works together to make ALC the special place it is. The entire executive team thanks each and every one of them for their hard work and ability to create a positive environment that promotes success. It is a privilege and a blessing to be part of this great group of people."
