On the occasion of her 40 year anniversary with the company, Malvena said, “Working for Future Electronics is a dream come true. Mr. Miller is such a good person, and his sons are following in his footsteps. Future is my family.”

Company President Robert Miller often refers to employees as being “the company’s greatest asset.” The company places a high value on the dedication of its employees, and milestone anniversaries are recognized with personalized cards, plaques, free meal vouchers, and other gifts based on their length of tenure.
