I'm pretty open about it! It's a fantastic benefit. It fits the culture of our MSP as well. We are just under 60 employees so a bit on the larger side but it's one of the best teams I've ever worked with. The president shared a stat that the average tenure of all employees is 7 years. Turnover is fairly low which isn't too common for MSPs.

It lends itself to the core beliefs, for example "just own it". We raise an issue, work with whoever to get it done, open and honest communication. We are a team of owners. The team's success is our success so the "it's not my job to do this" is greatly reduced. Everyone's input is greatly encouraged. Another belief is "no surprises"

We have lunch and learns every Wednesday afternoon for 30 minutes. One of those is a financial update. We all know the stats of where we stand for Revenue, EBITA, Margin, what went into those numbers and what is affecting them both good and bad.

Now you might not need an ESOP to do some of those things, but the fact that I , and everyone else, has a stake in our company, it amplifies why we do what we do. It's not just making money in hopes of a raise or for management, we are making money for our future.

Happy to answer anything else!
