KNOXVILLE, TN--These days it is rare to have employee longevity, but Braxton-Bragg recently celebrated 16 employees that have been with the company more than a decade, and six that have more than five years of service. Jack Harrison, who started as one of Doug Slocum’s first employees in 1995, tops the list with more than 20 years of service handling warehouse orders. Approaching two decades with more than 18 years, is Larry Hood, editor of Slippery Rock Gazette. He began his Braxton-Bragg career with freelance graphics in 1998, but was officially brought on staff later.
“I was here in 1995, helping Braxton-Bragg set up shop and have worked in the warehouse shipping and receiving department ever since,” says Harrison. “I love the people here, and they have always treated me well and rewarded me for taking pride in my job. Braxton-Bragg is growing by leaps and bounds, and I am excited to see where we go from here.”
