The Heart of What We Do
It All Starts with Our People
A Message from Our Chief Human Resources Officer Deon Riley
We believe an investment in our people is an investment in our future.
Our purpose is to make the world a brighter, happier place through the power of fragrance, and that starts with our people. Our nearly 60,000 associates across our stores, distribution centers and home offices are the heart of this company. Together, we are Gingham Nation.
At Bath & Body Works, everyone belongs. We celebrate the things that make us different, and we’re united by our shared set of values that guide everything we do. It’s our collective diversity that makes us stronger, and our culture of belonging that empowers each of us to bring our full selves to work every day.
Through continuous learning and development opportunities, industry-leading benefits and state-of-the-art office facilities, we’re cultivating an environment where everyone has the potential to thrive. We believe an investment in our people is an investment in our future. For us, it’s about growing in your career and having fun while you do it.
Our purpose goes beyond selling products. More than anything, our customers and the communities we reach power our brand, so when they need help, our associates jump in. We come together to support those who need it most — whether that's associates helping associates in time of crisis or our business supporting the pressing needs of our community.
At Bath & Body Works, we have deep pride in who we are and what we do. Every day, our associates around the world — our Gingham Nation — bring our purpose to life by creating the fragrances and experiences that spark joy for people everywhere. Together, we are making the world a brighter, happier place.
Focused on Our Associates, Suppliers and Communities
When customers are purchasing our products, they’re also supporting a company that is dedicated to our associates and supports our communities. That’s why we focus on more than selling fragrance-forward products. We’re creating meaningful and positive changes in our business, communities and society
