BeatBox Beverages Redefines Workplace Culture with Fun and Innovation

BeatBox Beverages: More Than Just a Great Place to Work

In an era where workplace culture is paramount, BeatBox Beverages stands out as a shining example of how to effectively merge fun, creativity, and professional growth. Recently recertified as a Great Place to Work®, this ready-to-drink (RTD) party punch brand has adopted a unique approach to cultivating an inviting work environment that values connection and community.

Located in Austin, Texas, BeatBox has experienced rapid growth, welcoming over 100 new employees in the last two years while maintaining an impressive 95% engagement rate. Co-founder and COO, Aimy Steadman, shares, "We've dedicated ourselves to creating a culture where our team members can thrive in their careers while enjoying the process. Our high focus on people has allowed us to scale our business effectively."

This employee-centric philosophy is buttressed by innovative benefits that go beyond the traditional offerings found in many workplaces. Some highlights of BeatBox’s benefit package include:
1. Comprehensive Health Coverage: This includes full medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees.
2. Annual Learning & Development Budget: Each team member receives annual funding for education and professional development.
3. Tuition Reimbursement: The BeatBox Scholars program allows qualifying employees to receive up to $5,250 annually for education.
4. Merch Stipends: Employees get stipends to wear and represent the BeatBox brand.
5. Surprise Perks: The company hosts surprise festivals and even lottery drawings for events.
6. Travel Opportunities: All-employee and department retreats occur in vibrant locations like Austin, Aspen, and Miami.
7. Virtual Concierge Services: These services help employees maintain a healthy balance between work and life.

By embracing a remote work policy, BeatBox has opened its doors to a wider talent pool, attracting diverse talent without geographical limitations. This policy emphasizes a results-driven approach rather than micromanagement, allowing employees to excel on their own terms.

“Our onboarding process is crafted with intention, and we've seen amazing results — a 95% engagement rate and a voluntary turnover rate of less than 5%,” elucidates one of the employees during the Great Place to Work® survey. Such low turnover rates reflect a stark contrast with the national average of around 13% for 2024-2025, indicating a thriving workplace culture at BeatBox.

Justin Fenchel, Co-founder and CEO, adds, “Our values shape everything we do, and our innovative benefits reflect that. For example, targeting 'fun' as a Key Performance Indicator this year demonstrates our commitment to culture. We’re not just pushing the boundaries; we’re redefining them.”

Since its inception in 2012 as a passion project within the walls of UT Austin, BeatBox has made a significant mark on the alcohol industry. It burst onto the scene after an unforgettable pitch on Shark Tank in 2014, gaining traction and visibility among consumers. Today, this RTD beverage can be found in all 50 states and at over 130,000 retail locations, with more than 15 bold flavors that cater to partygoers' tastes. Last year, it was even ranked as the #1 RTD alcohol brand in convenience stores.

With its vibrant approach to workplace culture and strong emphasis on personal and professional development, BeatBox Beverages sets itself apart as not only a leader in the RTD sector but also as a remarkable workplace where people feel valued and inspired.
