Thank you for your feedback. We agree with your thoughts on our current headquarters office – it is time to breathe new life into our workspace! That’s one of the main reasons we are moving our headquarters office to a new downtown Chicago location at the end of 2016. Our new office will be much more modern, open and technologically advanced to help us work more efficiently and collaboratively. This is an exciting time for Morton Salt and we’re looking forward to moving into our new home this year! Morton Salt HR Team
