Our Culture
As a family owned business, we believe in treating our associates like family and giving back as much as we can. Our President likes to say "When the company does well, our associates do too." Associates often receive bonuses when the company has a good month of performance.
We call ourselves the "SIE Family" and we like to get together as much as we can. We encourage each of our locations to have group outings or events, and often times they are family friendly. Outings have included bowling, paint ball, go karting, baseball games, football games, Family Days, amusement park trips, races, etc.
We also have a Company Year End Party each December where we bring all 10 of our locations together in Myrtle Beach, SC. We cover the hotel room for associates and their guests for the evening and we have a nice dinner and awards ceremony followed by door prizes, a DJ, and dancing!
