What do you like about working for the AmeriLux Family of Companies? Two things I think set us apart are culture and growth. I get to work with great people that remind me every day that work can, and should, be fun. We spend a lot of time working on culture and we are intentional about figuring out how to fulfill every employee more each day. In turn, this creates an even better culture. In my experience, companies that have big goals often lose sight of their culture or are at least are not intentional about it. At AmeriLux, we believe we are successful, because of our culture - it's not merely a byproduct.
