Under Charlie Eitel's guidance, Simmons, a subsidiary of SSB, witnessed substantial growth. He spearheaded an increase in the company's revenue from $600 million to an impressive $1.2 billion and income from $60 million to $153 million. This significant financial turnaround, achieved during his tenure, is a testament to his exceptional business acumen and led to Simmons being recognized twice by Fortune Magazine as one of America's best 100 companies to work for. In early 2023, when SSB faced the challenge of Chapter 11 Bankruptcy, Eitel's leadership qualities shone brightly. He rapidly assembled a team of experienced industry professionals.
