W. M. Lyles Co. has provided endless opportunities along with the proper resources to take advantage of them throughout my career. They truly represent progress through performance and demonstrate a family-based culture.

Having a job here at W.M. Lyles Co. was a great move for my career because as my first job fresh out of college, my experience here has been filled with numerous learning opportunities. I enjoy working for this company because from the day I started everyone around me has been warm and welcoming. They all do a great job at making the work environment a fun and safe place.

I initially started working for W. M. Lyles Co. with the intention to only stay a year or two. The company’s investment in its employees, high ethical standards, great working environment and emphasis on quality won me over. More than 10 years have gone by now and I still look forward to coming to work and making a difference each day.

There are three key reasons why I enjoy working at W. M. Lyles Co. (WML)

First, I appreciate the challenges presented by the nature of our work. The projects W.M. Lyles Co. takes on are complex and dynamic—there’s never a dull moment. Success requires constant problem-solving and close coordination with team members, which keeps the work engaging and rewarding.

Second, the people. The camaraderie that develops through our shared efforts is something special. The colleagues I work with are the same people I choose to spend time with outside of work. Even during high-pressure situations, the jobsite maintains a positive, supportive atmosphere.

Third—and most importantly—are the company’s core values. W.M. Lyles Co. promotes a culture that aligns closely with my own personal values. The organization embraces a championship team mentality: everyone is accountable and committed to a common goal. At the same time, W.M. Lyles Co. fosters a strong sense of family, where internal relationships and mutual respect are vital. These are the values I live by and intend to pass on to my kids.

I have worked side by side with the Owners and it doesn’t matter if it’s getting down in a trench, or if it’s pouring concrete, they will be on the ground and in the trenches alongside you. They treat you as if you’re one of them.
