Talent & Workforce
Thomasville wouldn’t be home to the progressive business culture it’s known for today if it weren’t for our resolute workforce. There’s no denying that our southern lifestyle inspires a work ethic rooted in hard work and taking pride in a job well done. We find that our workers are inspired to achieve a certain level of work-life balance which breeds a spirit of collaboration and ingenuity in one’s craft. Thanks in part to an attractive lifestyle and our beautiful surroundings, our community attracts qualified talent from across the country and remains an easy hometown choice for long-term residents and students.
In collaboration with top-notch educational partners, and local and state-wide workforce initiatives, we’re able to train, support, and retain the individuals who make up our most valuable economic resource.
"In Miami, earning $45,000 a year as a cabinet maker means living below the poverty line, but in Thomasville, Georgia, it qualifies as middle income," shares Ian Quinton. Reflecting on his move from Miami due to rising costs and deteriorating quality of life, he adds, "I left the city's rising overhead and endless traffic, now enjoying a seven-minute commute." Quinton anticipates brighter futures for his workers' children, some of whom will be the first in their families to attend college. International Design & Display Group, LLC
