"What do I love about working at GFI Digital? Where do I start? I love working at GFI because our culture breeds employee development and customer service. We are a family owned business and we truly have a GFI Digital family. There are great benefits and unbelievable opportunities to run a territory as your own business with world class support! When we study the Great Game of Business, The Advantage, Dale Carnegie, and Management by Objectives, we learn to truly put our employees and customers first. I never have to worry about customer satisfaction, as no other company has made the investment we have to ensure we are best in breed for our Managed Print Solutions, MFP offerings, Managed IT services, and world class IT hardware solutions.

 

GFI Digital is a performance driven company that also has the best employee incentives and recognition programs in the business – bar none. From hosting President Club trips, awarding company cars (including BMWs), hosting quarterly top sales outings, having company recognition events, and providing the opportunity to earn unlimited incomes, GFI proves that they recognize hard work, team collaboration and rewards those who truly strive to be the best they can."
