I read the Fortune article listing the best companies to work for in America. Delta has made a comeback with their new CEO. One of the companies not listed is Kendra Scott. I enjoyed her Success Magazine feature highlighting her corporate culture. It’s a smaller version of perks offered at Facebook and Google.
Ooh, how interesting! I watched Kendra Scott on the first season of The Apprentice a long time ago, and it’s awesome to see how far she’s come. I’m queuing that article up to share next week – thanks for pointing me to it!
