In the Culture Corner, we explore the values, traditions, and practices that make Ruppert Landscape unique. Each edition highlights a key aspect of our culture, offering insights for new team members and reminders for seasoned employees of the vital role they play in our continued success.
Our #1 value is our people. This foundational belief guides how we operate, and one of its most significant aspects is our commitment to appreciating and celebrating our employees. We understand that our team members are the heart of everything we do. Their hard work, dedication, and expertise drive our success, and we believe that recognizing these contributions isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s essential to fostering a positive and engaged workplace. From milestones like work anniversaries and promotions to accomplishments like safety awards and team achievements, we make it a priority to celebrate the individuals and teams who go above and beyond.
Celebration goes beyond acknowledgment; it builds a culture where employees feel valued, motivated, and connected to one another. It’s a moment to step back and reflect on what we’ve achieved together and to inspire each other to keep striving for excellence. Whether it’s an employee appreciation event, a shout-out in a meeting, or a small token of gratitude, these acts show our employees that they matter. By appreciating and celebrating our people, we honor the collective effort that makes Ruppert a great place to work—and a great company to partner with.
Each of our branch teams recently celebrated “Branchgiving,” with many handing out frozen turkeys, raffling off prizes, and recognizing their Crew Member of the Year. These annual celebrations are just one way we show how thankful we are for our teams all year round!
