Angie Rajski – “Angie is truly one of a kind. She always there to help and to answer any questions you may have. She has great office ethics and is one of the best at teamwork. If she does not know the answer she will get an answer for you. Her leadership and organizational skills outshine others and make her a valuable loyal employee that she is.”
Andrew Lapel– “Andrew has continued to grow in his role within the Solutions Engineering department in the 4 years he has been at SSI. Andrew is always responsive & customer oriented in the work he does for our team. Andrew always has a ‘growth mindset’ & is looking to improve what he does & how he does it. Andrew always have a positive attitude & is great a great teammate to work with.”
Andrew McIntyre – “It seems like everyday Andrew is showing team work and extreme accountability. One day, a project of a coworker seemed to be going sideways. This is where Andrew stepped in. Our coworker was on a phone call with the customer about a proposal that he said was ‘too expensive’. He had the customer on hold and was looking for help. Andrew got up out of his chair and said, ‘I’ve got this’. Andrew proceeded to communicate to the customer why the pricing ‘seemed high’ but really, was just priced correctly for the work to be done. We ended up getting a nice project after this phone call. Andrew never once asked for recognition and gave all of the praise to our co worker.
Afterwards we all went out for a couple beverages to celebrate our latest win. In classic fashion, Andrew grabbed the bill and said, ‘I’ve got this’. Everyone in the office really looks up to Andrew and he has really earned his nickname: A-Mac”
Ashley Pericone- “Ashley’s growth mindset, commitment to the team, and her ” how can I help and add value” attitude to the team is impressive. She was invaluable a few weeks ago when our team needed more in-depth coverage, she stepped up, and it was seamless. Thank you, Ashley, for your dedication to team FDR’s success!”
“I’d like to nominate Ashley Pericone for her dedication, unrelenting support and amazing attitude in contributing to the success of FDR and SSI as a whole. Ashley is always asking what she can do to help, isn’t afraid to tackle complex orders and situations, and is generally such a positive person who is a joy to work with. She’s helpful, resilient and has been invaluable to our team as a PC. Recently, when we experienced some personal challenges within our PC team, Ashley didn’t hesitate to jump in to take the lead and make sure nothing was missed during that time. She has challenged herself so much this past year, and has grown tremendously in this role as a PC. It’s been impressive to witness and we can’t wait to see how she continues to grow and add value in the future!”
“Ashley is a great teammate and a tremendous asset to our team. She maintains a positive attitude and a willingness to learn as she is still early in her career as a PC. In Q1 there were several instances where our other PCs were out on PTO and Ashley stepped up to make sure our team had coverage. She consistently does what she’s asked and demonstrates a growth mindset as she strives to learn as much as she can to be the best PC possible. If she has downtime, she asks our team members if there’s anything she can do to support. We are grateful to have her on the FDR team!”
Clayton Hynes – “About a month ago, Clayton took on the challenge of “owning” our cycle count process. He has worked diligently to help insure our counts are correct and items are properly tagged. He is also many times the face of SSI to our customer’s picking up orders and the various truck drivers that come here to load or unload. I have had many comments made to me by these folks about his politeness and willingness to assist them in any way possible to make their SSI experience a great one!
Thank you, Clayton!!”
Dalton Smith – “Has done a great job of operating independently gaining customers’ respect as a “go to” for updates/ problem resolution/ general project information. Ever since clicking on the Phishing email things have really taken off :)”
Jeff Carr- “Jeff Car displays amazing teamwork always has going above and beyond the call of duty. Jeff even when in the hospital going through medical procedures took the time to check emails, send out contracts, and POs to keep the Automation Group moving forward. He could have taken the time off, and rightfully so. Instead, he wanted to make sure that there was zero disruption in the execution team. Even during recovery, he continued to keep our customers informed, freight moving, equipment tracked, and orders out. Jeff has always gone above and beyond even sending POs out late at night when at home just to make sure that our execution team never feels pain. We appreciate him more than words can express and can’t wait to see what the future holds for him.”
Jenna Mosley – “Jenna is always ready and willing to jump into projects to help. She is amazing with communicating with the team and is great with the customers and vendors.”
John Strobel – “John has done a great job of stepping into a difficult role that sees him getting pulled in multiple directions all day every day.”
Justin Furgason- “Justin has always been very giving of his time and experience to me as a new salesman. He is thorough with his explanations and guidance and makes sure there is complete understanding of the topics at hand. Justin took the time to walk to existing vendors at MODEX and introduce me to our main contacts. Justin has continually gone above and beyond helping me onboard with SSI. ”
Katie Grisdale – “Katie is a great teammate and friend. She is always available to support projects and turn a frown upside down. The knowledge and experience she brings has played a huge part in our teams’ success.”
Keyani Crow – “Keyani has done a great job in her new position with the Permitting Team and provides extremely timely and informative feedback with each and every new opportunity and request. It has made several conversations be proactive when speaking with customers.”
Renn Martin – “Renn played a pivotal role in the preparation and execution of our MODEX tradeshow, going above and beyond to ensure its success. His dedication was evident in the extra days of travel he committed to, as well as the labor-intensive efforts involved in setting up and tearing down our booth. Throughout the week, he invested countless hours to guarantee a smooth and seamless experience for both our team and visitors to the show. He also went above and beyond for his team in several ways behind the scenes. His effort and dedication made a huge overall impact on a successful week.”
Tyler Doyle – “Tyler exhibits everyone of the characteristics stated above.”
