Hear from the Team You’re Joining
With the exception of a few weeks here and there I have been a site-based employee. When you’re away from home all the time it’s so important to work with people who love and care for you just like your family would and I feel that with Strike. I know that I can count on anyone I work with. I have created so many great, lasting friendships that have helped me through many ups and downs in my life. I’m grateful to Strike for the opportunity to have been able to foster those friendships.
