Our Culture
We’re unique!
Some may describe us as being quirky in a fun way because we like to celebrate our differences; both personally and professionally.
Our team is comprised of some of the brightest, humble, most caring, compassionate, and determined group you’ll ever meet.
Our community is collaborative and down-to-earth while maintaining a passionate and fast-paced environment.
Things in our world are always changing, and our employees are challenged every day—either by the use of new technologies or by the creation of perspectives through the lens of a kaleidoscope.
Each day is different, and it’s never the same old thing.
Employee Appreciation Day
March 5, 2021
Although today is formally Employee Appreciation Day, at IFI, we like to think we celebrate and appreciate our employees every day of the year. All of them have helped shape and make our organization fun to work at by being genuine, helping each other out and by going the extra mile.
We have a fun and innovative team that are unstoppable. So, even though we are celebrating this day in time, at IFI, we celebrate our employees every day! In recognition of our employees, we sent each a $25 Amazon gift card
How We Spent the Holidays
Together During Covid
A Letter to Our Employees:
This year has been anything but normal, but we have tried to make your experience a positive one despite the circumstances. We have constantly strived to be an employer who stood out above the rest.
I know all of us were disappointed we could not be face-to-face and celebrate this special time of the year together. However, we need to take special protections during these unprecedented times and protect each other, our friends, and our loved ones from becoming ill. As we are all interconnected and need each other.
In the meantime, we have tried to develop a unique experience for you and your family as we have traveled along this uncharted road together. It has not always been easy between teaching our children at home, trying to care for elderly parents and relatives from afar and helping our neighbors who need assistance.
Each of us celebrates our own holidays and times of joy differently. We may celebrate Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Boxing Day, or Winter Solstice. Whatever we recognize, we respect each other and celebrate together.
Enclosed, you will find “12” gifts that are identified by a number. However, there is one special gift in your package that has no number and that is a roll of toilet paper. This roll could be the highest valued item in your box, as they are now wiping the shelves clean (no pun intended).
Each day, you are to open a gift starting with gift #1, gift #2, etc. Once you open it, take a selfie and send it to Dee. Also, you will want to wear gift #1 on December 11th during our virtual event.

“Share the IFI Experience with Us”
Pre-Covid-19, our team came together twice a year in Southern California for fun team building activities and now, we have moved our get-togethers virtually. We have played Pub Trivia, Name that Tune and most recently we had Game Day.
For Game Day, the staff was divided into four teams where they came up with their own names. We had the “Quiet Storm”, “Gone with the Win”, “Jim and his Bees” and “The Marsupials”. Each team was outfitted with props related to their team names.
There was a dance off, teams competed in a Family Feud style game, they listened to movie clips and had to guess the title of the movie and compete in an indoor scavenger hunt where they had to use the items in a fun and creative way (e.g., sock puppet show).
Even some of our family members got involved in the fun. We had a great time and a lot of laughs. This is just one of the many things that we do that makes our group unique and fun to work with.
We work hard, but play hard.

Oops, we did it again in 2021. Yes, we’ve won the distinguished award of being one of the Top 100 Best Places to Work for a second year in a row! During 2020/2021, we had to adapt quickly like other organizations, to the changing demands Covid presented.

Who Are We?
Each member of our team is more than a number or “just” an employee: we’re uniquely human and treat each other with dignity and respect.
Our company fosters a spirit of camaraderie. We’re talented and creative and that transfers over into our organization’s culture. You’ll often find us baking luscious desserts, drawing, creating jewelry, singing, salsa dancing, playing an instrument, watching our favorite sports team, being foster parents, or challenging our bodies to reach new goals in physical achievements by biking longer distances or hiking more difficult trails.
By working collaboratively, developing solutions, adapting to change, and applying new technologies, we consistently develop key skill sets needed to maintain success in our environment.
As we continue our journey together, we hone our skills and talents with frequent Team Building and Educational Events.
We’ve been seen running around San Clemente with hats, fake mustaches, and a list of clues trying to figure out “Who Done It?” on our Murder Mystery Team Challenge.
We demonstrated our culinary talents and subsequently enjoyed the meal we made together.
Even throughout Covid, we’ve adapted and implemented new and creative ways of coming together and strengthening our bonds.
We celebrate personal milestones such as birthdays, delight in the arrival of a new baby, and are constantly soliciting input and thoughts on how to do things better. We value each other!
We hold ourselves accountable and with that comes “Big Freedom”, but also “Big Accountability” to constantly stretch ourselves and look ahead to see what’s possible on the horizon.
We believe in ourselves, our product, and our organization. We know that if we provide unique and incomparable employee experiences, it will equate to the same type of positive experience for our customers.
That’s what it means to share the IFI experience with us.
Our values spell “LEAD”
And together we’re trailblazers in our business and community

Driving for excellence means being the best we can be and going above-and-beyond what is expected. Constantly strive to do better and be better.
Our Partnership with Goodwill
When someone has a disability, they aren’t always afforded the same opportunities when it comes to employment. As an organization, we felt it was important to bridge some of those gaps so we formed a partnership with Goodwill.
When most people think of Goodwill, they think of their brick and mortar stores or an organization that collects donations. However, Goodwill is much more. They offer job training, internships, and placement for individuals who face barriers in obtaining employment. We’re a proud partner with Goodwill by collaborating in the development and implementation of an internship program, along with ongoing employment opportunities.
Community involvement
We’re proud to volunteer in our community where we actively seek out opportunities to have a positive impact and help those who are less fortunate.
When Covid-19 struck, we had to come up with a more creative way of continuing our community outreach while protecting our employees and others from the virus. As an organization, we identified “3” key organizations who needed assistance.
Each employee selects an organization that resonates with their personal values and IFI makes a monthly cash contribution on the behalf of the employee. This is our way of continuing to give back during a time of crisis. We look forward to the day when we can get back out in the field and volunteer with our local charities hands-on again.
Things we like to do together to celebrate us!
