Diversity and inclusion

We value our associates’ diversity and encourage them to leverage their varied life experiences at our company. This includes diversity in terms of gender, sexuality, race, thoughts, interests, languages, beliefs and much more.

Growing careers and making a difference

Our industry leadership is tied to the varied talents, perspectives and experiences of our associates. We encourage associates to take an active role in discussions about our business and our culture. With volunteer opportunities and cross-functional projects, we foster a workplace where everyone feels included. This work allows us to cultivate a diverse and inclusive workplace that reflects the values of the communities in which we operate.

Building a brand new career

Wesley was close to achieving all she could as a clinical lab scientist, so she decided it was time for a change.

Celebrating women in science

When Paula started working at the company almost 17 years ago, there were zero females in leadership roles in tech and operations. Times have changed.

A new job and a new home

RK is building the dependable career he’s always wanted. In the process, he and his family gained a new home.

“Society is moving quickly, and we have to change with our consumers. Leveraging the unique life experiences of our associates is a great way for us to build a bridge to an even stronger and more successful ScottsMiracle-Gro.”
