Employee Ownership

We Own It
Employee ownership defines our culture. From day one, we’ve shared a common goal—making tomorrow better than today. By investing in ourselves, we’ve built a foundation of success, accountability, and growth.

This owner mindset drives everything we do. As a 100% employee-owned company, every ISGer is personally invested, bringing passion, and design expertise. We approach every opportunity like we own it—because we do.
