For a 12th year in a row now, E-gineering has been recognized as a best place to work in Indiana. So many people here at E-g are responsible for that – go look at our Whole Team page for the face of each and every one of them! We say “recognized” because before we threw our hat into the BPTW ring for the first time in 2011, we knew we were a great place to work in Indiana. And even… [continue]
Success Is Measured By Faithfulness
Twenty years is a long time when you’re looking ahead at them. But, wow, they sure seem like a blink of the eye when you’re looking back. We started E-g when most of the founding partners were still in their 20s. Back then, leaving stable, well-paying jobs only to launch into the unknown abyss of starting a company seemed … exactly like the thing we should do. Life has a way of mellowing you out. Looking back now, we’re amazed… [continue]
Zoom (Partial) Family Photo
The stories we’ll tell! That’s what we’ve been saying around here as we look to the days ahead. One responsibility of living through these times is to make memories. Most of the E-g family is getting together weekly to catch up on business, but also to stay connected and catch candid glimpses of our families, homes, pets, hobbies, and so on. Whole-company Zoom calls have never happened here before – and they never would have, outside of this crazy season… [continue]
Social-Distance Friendly Family Virtual Scavenger Hunt Day Out
“What is a social-distance friendly family virtual scavenger hunt day out?” you ask. (And, wow, isn’t that a mouthful of words??) Well, we adapted our normal first company hike of the year, threw in a fun photo scavenger list, encouraged each person/family to go out and do their hike/photo-shoot in a social-distance friendly way – and then come back to share their fun day out with the rest of the company. Here’s a small selection of our photos – with… [continue]
2020 Easter Sunday Fun
It might be all kinds of crazy-different out there these days. And sure, we have to figure out how to live daily life in a social-distancing way. But some things remain stable even in the swirl of such change – such as celebrating Easter. Here are some of our families doing just that this past weekend! There are remote egg coloring parties, remote worship services, indoor egg hunts, Minecraft egg hunts, and multi-State family Zoom gatherings… just to mention a… [continue]
LEGO Day
This quote just about sums it up: There was so much fellowship and family fun to be had. It IS my favorite day of the year here at Eg! A HUGE thank you to those who helped me make this day run smoothly… Also thanks to those who volunteered… you ran the trading like champs!! Thanks to all who came, we hope you had a blast, and know that we do this because we love you and your children and… [continue]
Goals and that 2020 Vision
“2020 Vision?” Really? I know. It’s overused, a bad dad joke, the puniest of puns, and as cliché as they come. But, now that we got that out of the way: With last year and last decade behind us, what are you wanting to accomplish next year/decade? Just about everyone wants to eat better, lose weight, or get in shape (or all of the above). Those are good goals, and keep those on the list. But… aren’t there even more… [continue]
E-g Values People
E-g Focus on Values series As we pass our 19th anniversary and head into our 20th year as a business, we felt compelled to bring a little of the intimacy of our quaint company out into the open. Or as Don put it, “letting the internal leak outside a bit.” And so, we launch our “E-g Focus on Values” blog series! There are no “big personalities” here, and so we’re not strutting around presuming we’re the authority on any of… [continue]
