Our Nationwide Culture

The remarkable culture that Damon Anderson, TGF Founder and CEO, has established here from day one extends far beyond the walls of our offices. Not based near our headquarters? No problem! Our events and celebrations throughout the year provide a sense of community and collaboration for every agent. 

Twice a year, our work from home freight agents are invited to our Agent Roundtable weekend in Kansas City! At this much-anticipated event, expert freight professionals share everything from customer service advice to overcoming business obstacles. Continuing education and agent development is something we’re proud to offer for agents regardless of their location. Plus, agents can always enjoy ongoing coaching from our VP of Growth and Development, as well as our Director of Agent Development, from anywhere.

We work hard and play hard at Tallgrass. So in addition to these mastermind weekends, our work from home freight brokers also pack their bags and join us in Kansas City for our annual Bounce House Bash and Christmas party! At Tallgrass, we take every opportunity to bring our freight team together and celebrate our accomplishments and continuous growth! So you may work from home, but you sure won’t be going it alone.

Hey, we weren’t kidding when we said we’re unlike any other freight brokerage.
