Zion Inc. was, truly, the company everyone wanted to work for. Those that worked there never even considered leaving. All the most current business magazines wrote it up as the best place to grow and nurture a career.

They told of how they were welcomed in, almost as though the company had waited for them since it was created. Each employee had their own office, designed specifically ahead of time, and customized for their very needs.
