McDowell Real Estate is the first-place winner in the mid-size company category in The Plain Dealer Top Workplaces 2023. David Petkiewicz, cleveland.comCLEVELAND, Ohio - Even at Northeast Ohio’s Top Workplaces, employees have reasons to worry. With talks of a recession, large layoffs and inflation — even the best employers are working to keep morale and spirits high — especially in uncertain times.
The proof of that is in Tendon Manufacturing’s financial books, Gordon said. The company is “wide open” about financials with its employees. He said the company is positioned to weather through tough times.That trust between the employer and its employees is something Vitamix CEO Steve Laserson said he’s been working to build since he became the company’s CEO last June.
Laserson said this listening helps Vitamix meet its goals, like investing in upward mobility for employees. It also helps address problems leaders weren’t aware of. Chief Brand Officer Laura Soave said the company has great new meeting places, like a large atrium for serious and less-than-serious events.
