Diversity Matters

Our key difference

We strive to reflect the diversity of our customers and the communities in which we live and work. We continue to focus on the development of an inclusive company culture. Our values and business principles articulate the importance we place on our diversity and believe it is one of the factors that differentiates us from many of our peers. We aim to create equal opportunities for all employees regardless of personal background, race, gender, nationality, age, sexual orientation, physical disability, or religion. As a global company, having a diverse workforce from different backgrounds, nationalities, races, genders, gender identities, ages, sexual orientations, physical disabilities, religions, expertises and talents is of the utmost importance.

Our commitment is backed by substantial research on the advantages diversity brings to an organization, including increased profitability, creativity, stronger governance, and better decision-making. One such Boston Consulting Group study found that companies with more diverse management teams have 19% higher revenues due to innovation.

We've been recognized by employees as a European Diversity Leader in according to the Financial Times, as one of Forbes America’s Best Employers for Diversity in 2020 and as one of Forbes America’s Best Employers for Women in 2019. In 2020, we placed third in the Female Board Index, and were recognized by the European Women on Boards Gender Diversity Index.
