Fortune Magazine Honors a Casino That Bet Big on Its Employees

Previously, the resort had been owned by the Lee family, who started the casino in 1997. When ownership was transferred to their employees, the family feel didn’t go away—instead, the family just got bigger.

It’s a move that’s helped the resort grow and thrive, as employee-owners have taken it upon themselves to see that the company lives up to is mission to improve and innovate every day. Employees at all levels are passionate about their investment, offering input on many decisions, from menu choices to paint colors and they deliver a unique level of care to each guest interaction.  “What brings us gratification is working to get better each day,” said Andre Carrier, the company’s COO.

Fortune Magazine compiles the list annually with their research partner, Great Place To Work, and examines businesses with employees between 100 and 999 for the Top 100 Medium Workplaces category.

Gregory T.H. Lee, Eureka’s Chairman and CEO is humbled by the company’s inclusion on the 2018 list. During an interview for a feature in Fortune, he stated, “The employees know that they’re a part of the Eureka family. We all share core values, we’re all investors, and we all define success in the same way.”

Lee continued, “By passing ownership to the men and women I grew the business with, I am assured we will both stay a family and be a strong and growing business for years to come.”

Carrier added, “The employee-owners of Eureka are honored to be included on a list with so many great companies.”  To see the full list, visit https://fortune.com/best-medium-workplaces/
