    “When I decided to pursue other opportunities outside of the ready mix industry Folsom allowed me to continue to work part time so I could continue to get a taste of the industry I love. The level of professionalism and experience not only makes them a great company to work for but makes them #1 in my book for ready mix companies to work for.” – Nicole
