Every month, Socket employees ­nominate and vote on a co-worker who best exemplifies our Core Values and Beliefs.

This month, we picked Jeff Gray, from the programming department. Jeff builds and maintains the programs we use here in the office to keep everything organized and scheduled, as well as the programs our customers use to track their personal accounts.

“Jeff is a force for good in this world, and he is a genuinely helpful and useful guy that pulls things together for Socket on a regular basis,” said a co-worker who nominated him. “Basically, Jeff helps us help ourselves make the difference.”

This month, we picked Travis Baugh, from the Customer Care and Fullfillment department. He’s been with us for a little over a year as a Service Delivery Specialist, tracking orders and helping improve all the separate little steps it takes to set up a customer.

“He does a lot behind the scenes that not a lot of people see or know about,” said a coworker.
