Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever are proud to be named a 2024 Best and Brightest Company to Work For in the Nation, according to the National Association for Business Resources (NABR). Only about one out of every ten companies in the country are selected to be on this list, highlighting their success in employee engagement.

“The Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever team is honored to receive this award alongside so many wonderful companies and organizations,” said Sarah Mills, PF & QF’s vice president of human resources. “One of our team members said it best in the feedback from our engagement survey: ‘I truly enjoy the people we get to work with each day and the opportunity to make a positive impact on our habitat mission.’ I don’t think I could say it any better – this is a special place to work.”

The winning companies were assessed by an independent research firm, which reviewed several key measures relative to other nationally recognized winners. Examples of assessed categories include employee enrichment, recruitment and selection, and communication and shared vision.

If you’re somewhere in the Midwest this December, you know the start of winter is not waiting for the twenty-first of the month. Some very chilly days and nights, and even a few snows have swept the region, certainly putting some in a bad mood with icy windshields, and perhaps others in a jolly mood as Christmas trees are set up.

While people are salting sidewalks and decorating, what are our favorite upland birds up to when the change of the season hits?

Pheasants Forever’s senior Farm Bill biologist in northwestern Wisconsin, Cody Tromberg, shares his perspective on the adjustments pheasants make when cold weather and snow hits.
