Why Fix My Blinds?

There is an opportunity for a performance-based pay increase at 90 days and again at one year. We offer a $300/mo health reimbursement plan. We also offer paid time off, eight paid holidays, a paid birthday holiday, a holiday bonus, a Simple IRA with a generous company match, and company snacks and drinks.
