HEI Recognized Among 50 Best Places to Work for Sixth Consecutive Year

For the sixth consecutive year, Prairie Business magazine recognized HEI among the 50 Best Places to Work in the northern Great Plains. HEI couldn’t have received this honor without our wonderful employees!

“We have always tried to create a casual and fun office environment with a small-firm feel aimed at keeping employees happy and building team success,” states Jeff LeDoux, CEO/President. “There is a great phrase: ‘Culture eats strategy for breakfast.’ If we create the right culture, performance and success rise to a new level.”

Companies were nominated through an anonymous employee-satisfaction survey that sought input on work environment, employee benefits, workplace culture, and employee morale, among other factors. Prairie Business received more than 1,400 nominations from employees around the region compared to 1,300 in 2018.

“Each year, it seems we’re awed by the number of nominations we receive,” Prairie Business Publisher Korrie Wenzel said. “This year, it has happened again. And after reading through the nominations, it is hard not to be impressed by the passionate comments made by so many employees at these great companies.”

HEI is honored to receive this recognition celebrating our wonderful team that has grown to more than 200 employees. We pride ourselves on having a strong, positive work environment and family-friendly company culture. Thank you to all our talented employees for making our company as strong as it is today!
