survey of 60,000 U.S. employees working for companies employing
more than 1,000 people in the United States. Pitney Bowes ranked in

Pitney Bowes has been for almost 100 years. Our company has evolved
and adapted throughout almost a century of change, guided by these

Bowes has been committed to diversity and inclusion and the
business value it provides in understanding our markets, serving
our clients, attracting and retaining the best employees and
fueling our innovation.”
Employees who took the survey gave their opinion on a series of
statements surrounding topics of age, gender equality, ethnicity,
disability, LGBTQ+ and general diversity concerning their employer.
Diversity among top executives, evaluations from employees at other
companies, positions responsible for diversity and communication of
diverse company culture were also taken into consideration.
For nearly 100 years, Pitney Bowes has had a diverse culture of
innovation. The company’s core value is that “we do the right thing
the right way.” Currently, 43 percent of the Pitney Bowes U.S.
