EMPOWER TO BUILD

"Feeding someone is the first step in making a real and lasting difference in their lives.”

"People have said “you are a hero.” I tell them that I’m not a hero, but I have spent time in the presence of heroes."

"I love what I do, and the job has changed enough over the years to keep me interested...I love being outside, working with the truck and crew, and being out and about on location. Cox has been a great place to work and has allowed me to enjoy the career I planned back when I was in high school.

Mary owns and operates a family farm in Georgia. Through her innovation role, Mary connected with Bee Downtown and followed the company’s journey all the way to the Cox Campus, where Bee Downtown installed four honey bee hives. "Cox has a huge footprint, and anything we can do to help make that footprint cleaner or give back is great."

Being a successful media salesperson is "truly about being in front of the clients and in constant contact. You’re not the ‘set it and forget it’ guy. You’re checking in to see if things are working. Seeing if they are getting a response. Seeing if you need to change the creative. Being a true consultant to the partners of the company."

Outside of her work at Cox Automotive, Jessica owns an online fashion boutique. "Cox is extremely supportive. I am lucky to be a part of a culture that supports my dream and asks about each milestone. My team members have purchased several items, and I’m working on special projects from some of my colleagues. I realize that not every company is like that and that’s what makes Cox Automotive special. I am fully invested in the work that I do here.”
