Our Commitment

We believe in the transformative power of engaging many different perspectives. 

Different perspectives help us all to achieve more

Our mission is deeply inclusive: empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. We expect each of us—no matter what our level, role or function is—to play an active role in creating environments where people of a diverse range of backgrounds are excited to bring all of who they are and do their best work. 

Our communities inspire our progress 

We strive to create an environment that brings the power of diversity to life—where people with different backgrounds and experiences thrive in both their professional and personal lives. 

We reach out with purpose 

Guided by a commitment to building diverse communities, we’re intentional in who we reach out to, and how we connect with them. We increasingly do business with minority- and women-owned companies. We globally invest in developing the next tech industry leaders. And we pursue candidates of diverse backgrounds to help us do our best work yet. 

 
Inclusive thinking drives our innovation 

We design for all human experiences and needs. So, we strive to gather, listen to, and include as many perspectives as possible, with the goal of discovering how to bring out the best in each other, and everyone who uses what we create
