Letter from CEO

Dear associate,

Our values are a connection to our heritage and a guide to our future. They are also the measure of success for HOW we do things.

THE CUSTOMER RULES! Everything we do must begin and end with an insatiable drive to anticipate and fulfill our customers’ desires.

PASSION LEADS TO SUCCESS. We pursue excellence because we are emotionally, intellectually and spiritually engaged in our work ... and that makes our talent formidable and our results extraordinary.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION MAKE US STRONGER. We will integrate Diversity, Equity & Inclusion principles into every level and aspect of our business. We will treat everyone respectfully and fairly and provide and foster an environment where everyone feels safe and empowered to be successful. We do not tolerate discrimination of any kind, harassment, or bullying or other abusive behavior in the workplace. We have no tolerance for retaliation of any kind.

IT MATTERS HOW WE PLAY THE GAME. Doing what is right means following our beliefs — and the rules — even when no one is watching. Winning means very little unless how we get there is fair, collaborative, rooted in our values and contributes to the greater good.

Our Code of Conduct is based on our values and is a resource where associates can find information that defines behaviors that are acceptable and those that are not. All of our policies, whether in the Code, in our standard operating procedures or from other sources in our business, are based on our values.

There are tremendous benefits of working together in an innovative, creative and entrepreneurial environment like ours. With these benefits also comes responsibility — to ourselves and to each other. Part of that responsibility includes reviewing the Code and company policies, understanding and upholding the Code and asking questions if we’re unsure about something. It’s a personal promise and it’s fundamental to all that we stand for as a company. If you ever see anything that seems inconsistent with our values or Code, be sure to talk to your manager, Human Resources partner or our Global Ethics & Compliance team.

Thank you for sharing in the responsibility.
