At SAS, it’s not about fitting into the culture – it’s about adding to it
Diversity & Inclusion at SAS
Our multidimensional culture blends the different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives of employees around the world. We want everyone to feel confident in embracing their individuality and curiosity and to know they will be respected for their unique contributions and abilities.
One team. One mission. One SAS.
We cultivate a strong sense of belonging so employees feel connected to one another, our company and our core values: passionate, accountable, curious and authentic. These values guide how we treat each other, our customers and our partners, shaping the behaviors we embrace daily. We are always seeking new ways to unite our team, no matter where they are, to celebrate our culture and to foster meaningful relationships.
Employee engagement
At SAS, our Employee Inclusion Groups (EIGs) are at the heart of our inclusive culture. These voluntary, employee-led communities foster connection, spark innovation and strengthen collaboration across our organization. While each group celebrates distinct perspectives and experiences, they're open and welcoming to all employees. EIGs enhance our culture of belonging and advance our mission, vision and values.
Employee Inclusion Groups
At SAS, every employee can find connection, celebration and a sense of belonging, no matter their background or perspective. In addition to Employee Inclusion Groups, global employees also connect through our internal social network on everything from dogs, memes, pickleball and a plethora of technologies!
