Our culture is created by how we show up for each other and how we work together. It reflects who we are and enables us to be ourselves. Image How We Show Up for Each Other We are a customer-focused, results-oriented company with a culture characterized by open communication, fact-based decision-making and accountability. Emotional intelligence — we are self-aware and have empathy for others Drive — we do our best at everything we do, no matter how small the task Positive attitude — we see the glass as half full Eagerness to understand — we operate with a growth mindset and eagerly seek to learn and understand Sound judgment — we do our homework and draw logical conclusions How We Work Together Trust & Respect We assume the best of our employees and their intent to do the right thing. Diversity & Inclusion We understand each individual is unique, and recognize and value our differences. Learn more. Collaboration We win as a team, not as individuals. Open Communication We share our thinking with each other. Accountability We are responsible for our choices and actions.
