Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Eligible employees share in company value: its ESOP gives qualifying team members an ownership interest.
  • Field training has protected time: Lewis dedicates a full training day twice yearly alongside rigging, climbing, and electrical-hazard instruction.
  • Employees have a confidential reporting route: its independent ethics hotline operates around the clock in English and Spanish.

What critics are saying

  • Fieldwork carries electrical and equipment hazards: crews climb with chainsaws and work near live power lines.
  • Storm work brings harsh conditions: crews clear fallen trees amid extreme temperatures, high winds, flooding, and snow.
  • Travel adds roadway exposure: utility trucks navigate crowded corridors, and storm response involves unfamiliar routes and poor weather.

What makes Lewis Tree Service unique

  • Supplier diversity is independently certified: NCEO and Supplier.io recognize Lewis as a minority-owned diverse supplier.
  • Its footprint supports broad utility coverage: Lewis operates across 30 states.
  • Field decisions stay close to the work: its operating principles empower employee-owners to manage critical situations onsite.
