Women of Pratt Industries Share Why Pratt is a Special Place to Work

“One word describes working at Pratt to me: opportunity. Our leaders give employees the opportunity to be in charge of their own career destiny and growth. My career is a perfect example. I started in graphic sales, but as the company grew, I found opportunities to help guide and build our corporate purchasing team and advance through the ranks. Pratt encourages this personal development and growth and for that, I’ll always be grateful.”– Judi Befort, Global Purchasing

“Pratt is very special to me because I’ve been able to grow professionally and personally since I started as an intern my junior year of high school. The team I work with and specifically my manager truly care about me and encourage me in all I do. They took time to teach me how to prioritize projects, manage deadlines and communicate with a variety of personalities making me successful in my customer service role. Equally as important, they celebrated my personal milestones from getting married to becoming a mother allowing me the flexibility to balance both of my roles.”

“As a new mother, I am incredibly grateful to work for a company that values the need for maternity leave and provided me with 100% paid family leave. I spent the time transitioning into motherhood and bonding with my daughter, which resulted in an extremely happy and healthy baby. I am extremely grateful to Pratt Industries for recognizing the importance of this benefit.”

– Allison Jackson, Divisional HR

“Pratt is very family oriented and truly cares about you and your family. As a woman this was very important to me when striving to have a career and raise my children. With the great health benefits and salaries Pratt offers I was able to provide for my children’s needs and wants growing up.”

– Christine Bader, Operational Excellence

“At Pratt, I’ve been empowered to build a team in the way that fits our plant. I want people to be successful and for my team to enjoy their job and feel energized.
