We invest in our team’s knowledge of each situation in which they are expected to make a contribution, as well as the technologies that best facilitate those contributions. We have and continue to recognize that the workplace continues to evolve and we respect our team members' suggestions and preferences as we evaluate how to structure the physical and virtual elements of our work environment to optimize stability and productivity.
