According to our latest annual Global Sustainability report, we have reduced carbon emissions per square foot by almost 25% in just two years.We believe creating an inclusive environment is vital for unleashing the full potential of our people. To carve the path to this, we have set a goal of hiring more women across teams and in management roles to 40%. We also provide tailored training, support groups, mentorship, and feedback channels to ensure everyone feels valued, empowering our teams to better serve clients.We strive to create safe and healthy spaces that promote wellbeing, productivity and sustainability.
