Fleet Team Since 2003
I feel so lucky because Merchants offers such a diverse and innovative environment with ample opportunities to gain valuable industry experience, especially for people like me who are just starting out. The entire team emphasizes professional development with trainings and real-life experiences designed to match and challenge your skills and interests … in a truly supportive atmosphere for everyone to thrive and advance in their careers.
The Next Gear Graduate Rotation Program especially allowed me to broaden my understanding of the industry and establish strong relationships across the company. These relationships opened doors and opportunities for a full-time position. I am so appreciative of generous, continuing chances to grow — both professionally and personally!
