 We work hard at Scott. We believe in each other. When the opportunities arise, we also like to take the time to facilitate fellowship and team-building. In other words, we like to play hard too. We celebrate our company at various events throughout the year. Some of these include:

- Summer business hours, closing early every Friday
- Newly established Presidents Club contest, culminating with group trip to Amelia Island, Florida resort for qualifying producers and spouses

- Various holiday celebrations
- Onsite masseuse available every 2 weeks
- Onsite drycleaning pick-up/delivery available
- Annual college scholarship awards. Click here to see this year's winner.
 Finally, we are proud to actively support many community events and organizations. Our owners are provided ample flexibility in taking the time and energy to serve these organizations. We are a strong partner of the United Way of Central Virginia. Beyond corporate support, owners consistently give at a greater than 95% participation rate. In addition, we support our high school theatre programs, local music programs, and various historical organizations.
 “Employee ownership lends itself to a culture unlike any other organization where I’ve worked….”
“The ESOP means that this is not just a job. It is like a family, and we are very concerned about taking care of our clients.”
“As an owner, you want to see your fellow owners do well---you want to see everyone get that bonus. Before, when I was just an employee, all I cared about was how much money I was going to make…”
“We all look forward to coming to work in the morning and we have been successful here. We don’t want to go back to the old-school way of doing things, which is ‘what have you done for me lately?’ “
 “All of us are entrepeneurs and we understand how to work individually, but we work together for the good of the company…”
“This agency is about one thing and that is people. If we get the right people at every level, then every touch the client has will be positive and the rest of it will take care of itself….”
“The fact that we don’t have a lot of turnover speaks for itself…..”
