WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AN OWNER
When you work for a 100% employee-owned company, you get to share in its success. VIP’s employee-owners see a direct correlation between the work they do and the company’s performance. Our generous Employee Stock Ownership Program plays a huge role in our high retention and morale. There is a great sense of pride in being an employee-owner, and this is a benefit rarely offered by a company of VIP’s size and stature.
GET READY TO LEARN AND GROW
Despite being a large company, VIP has an entrepreneurial culture that offers a lot of freedom. You’ll become an expert in your field in a short amount of time, and find that there are always opportunities to learn new things and expand your knowledge. VIP offers wonderful growth potential, as we promote all of our team leads, managers, and members of leadership from within. We foster an environment where everyone is willing to pitch in, lend a hand, and share what they know.
OUR CUSTOMERS ARE OUR FRIENDS
At VIP we are committed to our customers, and the great relationships we’ve built with them have helped us become industry leaders. We get to know our customers very well and always do the right thing to support them. We’re constantly listening to our partners to find new ways to help them thrive. When you work closely with our customers, whether they’re a small craft brewer or a national distributor, you get to see the innovation that VIP brings to the beverage industry first-hand. These relationships help keep us connected and working towards mutual goals.
SHAPING THE INDUSTRY
If you don’t already have a passion for the beverage industry, working for VIP will likely spark one for you! Our innovative technology solves key problems for the industry and is driving a transformation in the way beverage products are created, transported, purchased and sold in the US. It’s easy to become intrigued by this fascinating market and everything that goes into the journey of that delicious cold beverage from its creator to your glass.
SUPPORTING OUR COMMUNITY
