Girl Run (and if you are female, minority, really anyone -- seriously run) - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Vi-Jon

Thank you for sharing your opinion on Vi-Jon. We appreciate that you took the time to provide us with feedback. However, we must respectfully disagree with some of your comments. To begin, we do agree that Vi-Jon is full of talented, caring people who believe that we are one team with one vision. Following Vi-Jon’s reorganization as an Employee-Owned company, leadership laid out their plans for that vision, which includes growth over the long-term. As with any change, the benefits will become more evident over time. Vi-Jon is a growing company, and like other manufacturers, we have been impacted by the challenges associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Unlike H1N1, the scale and duration of the COVID pandemic have presented unique hurdles that we continue to navigate. As a manufacturer, Vi-Jon has always had 24/7 operations. Our employee-owners work around the clock to produce private label health and hygiene products, items that are essential when it comes to protecting your health. Due to the pandemic, our workforce faced increased demands, and we committed to supporting those operations employees and our business by working together in-person as a team. Regarding diversity, Vi-Jon is committed to representing the communities where our employee-owners live and work and currently, our demographics are over 50% minority. As part of that goal, our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Team focuses on recognizing the importance of diversity and promoting the value of corporate social responsibility. Again, the vision for the DEI Team is a long-term one and its impact will be felt over time. We understand that the benefits of long-term visions – such as the ESOP – may not be obvious from day to day, but we ask that you please keep in mind that growth takes time. And after more than 110 years in business, Vi-Jon continues to keep its eye on the future. If you would like to discuss further, please know that you can always contact your HR Representative or call the corporate HR team.
