Stronger Together: Frederic’s Story of Growth and Belonging at PLI
LAS VEGAS, NV – October 25, 2024 - At PLI, we pride ourselves on being more than just a workplace, we’re a close-knit community where camaraderie and a shared commitment drive us forward. From our leadership’s focus on employee growth to our culture of inclusivity and teamwork, we prioritize an environment where every voice is valued. Employees aren’t just part of a team, they’re part of a family that celebrates every achievement and navigates challenges together. This vibrant culture, built on trust and mutual respect, is why employees like Frederic Weems feel inspired to not only work here, but also return after time away.
Frederic’s journey with PLI is a testament to our unique culture. After leaving PLI to explore other opportunities, Frederic quickly realized that there was no place like it. The leadership and people he had once worked with were a significant draw in his decision to return. Coming back, he noticed that the company had grown stronger, with improvements in leadership and management that reflected PLI’s commitment to both its employees’ and its mission. The welcoming environment he rejoined was even more engaging and supportive than before, reinforcing his decision to return.
Frederic’s time away allowed him to see what made PLI distinct from other companies. He experienced how different PLI’s values are, finding that few companies matched the genuine support and goal-oriented culture he had once known. At PLI, the emphasis on setting and achieving goals is infectious, it motivates employees to bring their best to every project and continually push forward. This commitment to progress and purpose wasn’t something he found elsewhere, and it deepened his appreciation for what makes PLI unique.
In his promoted role as a General Machine Operator, Frederic is responsible for setting up jobs for the machines to operate, a step-up that allows him to make an even greater impact. But what truly makes his experience fulfilling is the camaraderie he feels daily. “Camaraderie means a lot to me,” Frederic says. “It’s like a family here and we depend on each other.” His return was met with food, hugs, and heartfelt greetings from his colleagues, a reflection of the support system that PLI nurtures across all departments and roles.
Looking ahead, Frederic is excited about the future. As PLI continues to grow, so does the potential for new opportunities and achievements. Every day offers something special, whether it’s working on a project with a trusted team or sharing laughs in the break room. For Frederic, PLI is more than a workplace; it’s a place to grow, collaborate, and be part of something meaningful. It’s a journey he’s proud to continue, surrounded by a team that feels like family.
