- Do the Right Thing: We value fairness, honesty, and integrity above all else. We speak openly and fairly with each other to build relationships based on trust and respect. We’re accountable for our actions and do what we say we’ll do, even if it’s not easy.
- Enjoy It: We bring our whole selves to work every day – free to express our beliefs and share our unique perspectives in all that we do. We enjoy our time at work and know it’s also important to enjoy our time at home. We laugh, have fun, and make this part of what we’re known for.
