Diversity and inclusion

We drive forward, together.

Schneider is comprised of safe, courteous, hustling associates who deliver superior experiences that excite our customers. We live out that mission with full commitment to our core values, which include respect for all, and which characterize how we and our associates do business. Our history has taught us that treating everyone with dignity and respect is vital to our ongoing success.

No matter your starting point, our destination is the same.

We embrace and seek out diversity that is inclusive of thought, race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, experience and background. We find that this diversity and openness ensures that all our associates have equal access to opportunities and resources to contribute fully to the organization’s success, and it fuels innovation, improves strategic thinking and cultivates leadership.

Through our hiring, training, ongoing education and development programs we nurture an inclusive environment where associates feel safe, supported and empowered to share their creativity, experiences and ideas.

It is our wonderful differences that ultimately make us more cohesive. We are a unified team driving to the same destination: success.
