At Block by Block, we pride ourselves on investing in and cultivating great talent. We strive to promote internally every chance we get because with nearly 3,000 employees nationwide, chances are that our next great manager is already here. In fact, many of our leaders began at Block by Block as frontline Ambassadors — including this month’s Culture Club highlights, Paulita Elliott and David Aguilar. Both Paulita and David are approaching work anniversaries — 20 years and 15 years, respectively. In honor of these impressive milestones, we asked them to share a bit about their experience and advice they have for employees aiming to build lifelong careers with Block by Block. Paulita began as a Safety Ambassador in 2005 with our program in Downtown Long Beach, Calif. Over the years, she was promoted to Team Leader, Operations Manager, Director of Operations, Regional Director of Operations and General Manager. As General Manager, she oversees three prominent Ambassador Programs in San Francisco. In 2010, David, like Paulita, started at Block by Block as a Safety Ambassador in Downtown Long Beach. He is currently a Regional Vice President but was previously a Regional Director of Operations, an Operations Manager and an Operations Supervisor.
