Outcome

This strategic overhaul dramatically increased employee satisfaction and loyalty. The new, improved benefits structure, including the 401k plan, significantly boosted job satisfaction, positioning the company as a preferred employer in the transportation sector. This transformation not only improved day-to-day operations but also aligned with the company’s broader objectives for growth.
