FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SANTA ANA, CA – WAXIE’s Santa Ana branch is honored to announce that it has been named one of the “Best Places to Work” by the Orange County Business Journal.

Hundreds of companies within the Orange County area were nominated. The award and the results were determined by evaluating several factors, which included an anonymous employee survey. All WAXIE Santa Ana employees were invited to participate in the voluntary survey that included questions about company culture, values, leadership and work environment. 40% participation was required for consideration and WAXIE Santa Ana’s employees far exceeded that participation level at 78%. 

Santa Ana employees praised WAXIE for the family atmosphere, open communication, the feeling that their work was appreciated and the company’s unwavering commitment to its customers.

“I believe that Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos said it best: ‘When you get the company culture right, everything else will follow’,” said Alice Sawaya, Vice President and General Manager of the WAXIE Santa Ana branch. “How does WAXIE get the culture right? We have faith in our people. We nurture them and allow them to grow. We employ the best and brightest, and place them in a creative environment encouraging innovation and best practices. Santa Ana employees are empowered individuals who are passionate about our business and industry.”New call-to-action
