Our Culture
Effectiveness
The driving force behind our culture is effectiveness. It's the measure by which we work, make decisions, and grow. Everything we do should be effective and should bring us closer to our mission: to inform and inspire the digital generation and become the most influential and loved journalism brand in the world. To be as effective as possible, we take ownership of our words, work, and ideas and we have accountability to our audience, clients, and colleagues.

Communication
We believe in access to information and open lines of communication across all levels of the company and between our global offices. Our All Hands meetings throughout the year, monthly Q&As with our CEO and other leadership, CEO office hours, and monthly company-wide newsletters are just a few of the ways we ensure that every employee has the information they need to stay informed and inspired.
Diversity & Inclusion
Our people are our greatest asset and we want our company to be as diverse as the communities we live in, work in, and write about. Our employee-managed resource groups host open monthly meetings, panels, and events. The Women’s Group, Hue, and Rainbow Groups support our staff as well as advise our management team on how we can continue to improve.

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
We know that diversity + EQUITY + inclusion = a successful organization. That’s why we strive to weave it into all of our company initiatives.
Diversity reflects the different life experiences, identities, and perspectives that make each of us unique. It includes, but is not limited to, racial identity, cultural background, sexual orientation, work style, gender, socio-economic status, ideology, age, or religion. Achieving diversity makes us all better, and requires acknowledging that our different life experiences affect the way we navigate the world and our work life. Improving diversity is an ongoing and collective responsibility that helps us understand each other and work together to do even better work for our audience and clients.
Supporting and engaging with our Employee Resource Groups helps us to achieve that goal. We take every opportunity to create an environment that encourages open and honest discussions with our employees. We know we don’t have all the answers, so we look to experts both inside and outside the company for guidance. Our company motto is ‘Better Every Day,’ and we look forward to continuing our efforts.
