Employee Stock Ownership Plan
SJE-Rhombus is proud to be an ESOP company!
What does ESOP mean?
ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) is an employee benefit plan governed and regulated by United States law. SJE-Rhombus began its journey into an ESOP company in 1988, becoming 100% employee-owned. Employee-ownership means that everyone at SJE-Rhombus has a vested interest in the success of the company. This gives SJE-Rhombus a competitive advantage; each employee-owner is working partner - motivated to be acutely involved in the day-to-day operation of the business. This involvement and commitment has continued to be the catalyst for our success.
Our talented employee-owners take great pride in manufacturing quality products and servicing our customers to support out exceptional line of control products. Each employee is rewarded by the steady increase in the value of SJE-Rhombus stock in their retirement account.
There are only approximately 11,000 ESOP companies in the United States; only about 1,000 of those are owned entirely (100%) by employees. SJE-Rhombus is proud to be one of those companies! To learn more about ESOP companies, please visit The ESOP Association and the National Center for Employee Ownership web sites.
