We agree, Kurt’s greatest strength is its people and listening to feedback is key. Our Employee Owners are a cohesive, highly skilled and hardworking group. It is often said that we are a lot like family. Kurt could not compete globally in today’s complex marketplace without the motivation, ingenuity and technical expertise its Employee Owners. We need Kurt employees to share their thoughts and suggestions because without feedback such as yours, we cannot make things better. Not that we’re perfect – there is always room to grow. And with this insight, we hope to improve even more. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and know that we are listening.

Our pay, benefits, time off and work environment make Kurt a great place to build a career. There are multiple career paths including quality, sales, engineering, accounting, production, customer service, technical support, IT and management. Kurt is unique because we are big enough to provide many opportunities, but small enough that the work environment still feels like family. For this reason, Kurt has some of the lowest turnover rates in the industry. On average, Kurt employees stay with the company for 14 years and over 30% of our employees have worked at Kurt for over 20 years! When you consider Kurt’s 70+ years in business and the fact that our ESOP creates a true ownership culture, it’s no wonder so many come to Kurt to learn, grow and stay to build their careers.
