Hornbeck Offshore is in Covington LA.

Don't know what qualifies as big but it's a decent sized company

Lexington, KY is over 200k people (323,000), but i would definitely still consider us to be a small city.

Lexington has: Valvoline, Tempur Sealy (Tempur Pedic), Jif peanut butter, Lexmark, Linkbelt Cranes, Fazoli’s and A&W Restaurants.

Had a Co Worker take a job with Murphy that required him to move to the El Dorado office and not the Houston one. He was at a different operator back in Houston in six months.


Does Murphy still pay for college of every high school graduate of El Dorado?

Maybe not as impressive as it used to be but the world HQ for Cooper Tire is also located in Findlay, OH.

I'll throw in Whirlpool too. They are based out of Benton Township, Michigan. Population of 14k

Plus Ruby Tuesday is HQ'd in Maryville... but Maryville and Alcoa are part of Knoxville metro.

ETA: Clayton Homes is in Maryville as well. World's largest manufactured homes company.

And Alcoa isn't HQ'd in Alcoa, TN anymore... they are in Pittsburgh.
