We Look Out for Each Other

Fostering Inclusion and Belonging

Our projects depend on teams of skilled professionals working together to get the job done. That's why we are committed to fostering an inclusive work environment, where the growth and development of all employees go hand-in-hand with our overall success as a company.

Roadmap for Success

  • Remember that CDM Smith is an Equal Opportunity Employer committed to non-discrimination in all aspects of our operations.
  • Never base employment-related decisions - such as hiring, advancement, project assignments or compensation - on protected characteristics like race, gender or religion.
  • Treat everyone - employee, contractor, vendor, client or anyone else - with respect always.
  • Welcome new ideas and encourage others to share their unique viewpoints.

A: Yes, you should. While a joke may seem harmless, CDM Smith wants all employees to feel comfortable at work. Taken to an extreme degree, comments about national origin may lead to feelings of discrimination or harassment, neither of which are tolerated here. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can try addressing the issue with your coworkers directly. But if you don't, or the jokes continue, speak up.
