Building Our Employee Community
As a family business, developing a connection amongst the team is a long-established practice of the Miniat culture. We place great pride in continuing to engage our employee community through a variety of meaningful philanthropic and social events throughout the year.
The Miniat Ambassadors program pairs new and tenured employees to help transition team members into the organization. Through this one-on-one onboarding approach, training and communication are personalized to the specific needs of new employees. This method has been shown to help individuals accelerate the mastery of their new job responsibilities while providing an immediate connection within the company.
Miniat Serves
Miniat Serves allows our employees to volunteer their time to philanthropic initiatives during approved work hours. With busy lives, it can be hard for individuals to find time to give back. We built the Miniat Serves program to support the personal goals of any employee that would like to incorporate service to others into their schedule.

Our annual awards ceremony, Driven to Excel, recognizes outstanding contributions from both individual achievement and team collaboration.

Celebrating Our Shared Success
Throughout the year we take many other opportunities to socialize together. From barbecues to bags tournaments to fundraisers and more, we believe it is important to take time to celebrate our hard work as the Miniat community.
