Why Work at Planet Depos?
PD has been a great company to join. The support and training I have received have been very informative and helpful and I appreciate the support I have received from my supervisor. The office environment is good, everyone is very nice and I enjoy working with my colleagues.
It’s abundantly clear that PD has an investment in each of its employees and strives to encourage everyone to give their best. In return, PD offers opportunities to find where you may fit the best within the organization and utilize your skill set to its fullest.
I believe that the PD philosophy is outstanding. I love that PD is so progressive in growing the business. In our industry, when most others are just happy with the status quo, it’s so refreshing to see the enthusiasm and eagerness spreading from PD out to the reporting community
I truly believe that this is a great company and that I have a great job with unlimited growth potential. I am grateful to work with an organization and in an environment that thrives in the way that it does. Personally, working here actually gives me hope for a bright future, compared to other places I’ve worked, where there wasn’t an ounce of hope to be found. This company feels different and I like it.
Today marks 1 year for me at Planet Depos!
I never expected to find a job where my opinions and ideas are valued and appreciated. I certainly did not experience that at my previous workplace. There, all I thought about was when I’d be able to quit.
But here, I think about what I can bring to the table, how I can help beyond my usual tasks, and what I can do to advance. And it’s because all of those things are actually possible. I’m part of the team. It’s proof that great management makes a difference.
I immediately felt I belonged the first day I started; and that feeling hasn’t faded! I get along greatly with all of my team members and all the other PD folks that I’ve met!
I don’t mean to write a book; but working here has done wonders for my peace, so I’m just wanting to say I’m grateful!
