Careers + ESOP at Bland Company
IT’S GOOD TO BE BLAND.
When Glenn Bland decided to retire in 2017, he was faced with the important task of deciding what to do with all of his privately held shares in the company. Instead of selling them to someone outside of the business or shutting down entirely, Glenn chose to sell his shares back to his treasured employees and create an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, or ESOP. In doing so, Glenn solidified a legacy of elite service and integrity that continues to stand the test of time.

What is an ESOP?
ESOP stands for Employee Stock Ownership Plan, which means that after working as an employee at Bland Company for a certain amount of time, you earn ownership in the form of shares. As you gain seniority in the company, you also accumulate more shares at a faster rate.
It has many benefits:
- Incentivizes employees to stay with the Bland Company
- Rewards employees for continued excellent service
- Allows Bland Company to buy back shares after employees retire
- Gives Bland Company significant tax benefits
