“Times are different now,” – how often do you hear the phrase when referring to longevity (or lack thereof) of employment at a single company? At Gardiner, we don’t buy it. In fact, over 50 of our Associates have been with us for over 20 years and our average tenure is over 11 years. But what makes us different? Why do people want to build their career with Gardiner? We think it’s our culture:
ENTREPRENEURIAL ENVIRONMENT: One of the founding principles of Gardiner is to hire good people, support them and ultimately let them do their jobs. We think bureaucracy stifles creativity and frustrates our clients, so we try to keep the red tape to a minimum.
ASSOCIATE DEVELOPMENT: A big part of what makes Gardiner a great place to work is our commitment to investing in our people. Lots of companies say it, but we put our money where our mouth is. Over the last 5 years, we’ve invested over $3 million in training and education for our associates. Our associates meet that investment with their commitment to continuous self-improvement.
CLIENT FOCUS: In our industry, we believe that the key to a great client experience is simple: do what you say you’re going to do and be as easy to do business with as possible. That simple focus has allowed Gardiner to build long-term relationships with the most prominent institutions and companies in Northern Ohio.
