  1. In a previous statement from Digi-Key, the company stated “Benitez-Estermerahas never worked at Digi-Key in any capacity, either directly or through a contractor. He also never sought, nor gained access into our facility.”

  2. It's too bad a huge company like this has NO SECURITY for any of the working employees , and just anyone can just walk into this place of business and terrorize employees ! The management also just trivialize the "incident " and is more worried about bad press than the safety and security of its workers !

  3. I've worked 2 seasons at Digi through Express Pros. It's the safest place I've ever been. The entire town and surrounding communities are extremely safe. I would go back. Crap happens everywhere.
