Longevity doesn't really come into play. You could be a new employee with the company and have made a significant contribution and your bonus will reflect that. We also pay a cash bonus to our returning three-month employees. Again, that's based on the profitability of the prior year. They have helped us achieve a profit and are therefore entitled to share in those profits.
Free housing is provided for most of our seasonal employees.
We have been recognized by the state of Wisconsin as having exemplary migrant housing facilities. The employee stock ownership contribution can be as high as 15 percent of annual income. We recently terminated our pension plan and created a money purchase plan whereby the company is committed to putting an additional 10 percent of income away for retirement. For our retail sales representatives we have created an IRA which we contribute money to every year. They also receive a cash bonus which can be directed towards their retirement.
