Promoting diversity and inclusion in recruitment
We are committed to improving diversity at all levels. As a federal contractor, we comply with federal contractor affirmative action requirements to employ and advance women, minorities, individuals with disabilities and protected veterans.
Our campus programs include recruitment at historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and other schools with a relatively high percentage of females and minorities enrolled in engineering and computer science programs.
We cultivate partnerships with organisations focused on hiring women, minorities, individuals with disabilities and veterans, including Americas Job Exchange, Technologists of Color and the Society of Women Engineers.
Investing in our people
Our aspiration is for our workforce to continually reflect the diversity of people and perspectives in today’s evolving society. We believe this is fundamental to our efforts to bring the most diverse ideas and innovations to help our clients push their industries and their technologies to solve the unsolvable problems of the past.
Committed to Employee Development
We believe in the power of ongoing learning and development to build awareness and understanding of the importance of diversity and inclusion. To that end we offer online and in person courses on topics such as unconscious bias, allyship and communication as part of our D&I curriculum.
Our performance management program, MPOWER, empowers our team members to drive their careers and gain meaningful feedback. Through automated feedback tools and one-on-one meetings with leaders, our MPOWER Connections, have resulted in over 7,000 meaningful discussions in 2023. Lifelong learning is important to our team members and we have provided opportunities and resources that resulted in 60,000 hours of learning in 2023.
PRISM
PRISM is our global diversity and inclusion strategy, driven by team members, with a passion for creating an innovative and inclusive atmosphere. It represents bringing all our diverse cultures together to form a collective brilliance in an environment where individuals from all backgrounds and experiences can feel comfortable being themselves.
By creating a platform for team members to connect, collaborate, and share their unique experiences, our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) play a crucial role in nurturing an inclusive work environment. Our ERGs foster connections, promote cultural awareness, and encourage each of us to be our authentic selves both within and beyond the workplace, we encourage and support the formation of new ERGs.
WIN
The Women’s Initiative Network (WIN) has a mission to foster a work culture that supports, encourages and boosts the talented women in our workforce to achieve their professional and personal goals, maximising their contribution to Manhattan’s growth and success.
MCN
The Manhattan Cultural Network (MCN) celebrates our rich cultural diversity and encourages our diverse global workforce to better understand each other, value differences, and work collaboratively through various educational and meaningful events.
MCN promotes inclusion through education and celebration hosted by our four subcommittees:
- Black & African American Network
- Hispanic/Latino Network
- Indian Associates Network
- Asian Alliance
THE PRIDE ALLIANCE
The Manhattan Pride Alliance was formed by and for Manhattan’s LGBTQ+ community and allies. The Alliance focuses on the importance of education, authenticity and belonging at work and seeks out ways to give back to our wider community outside of Manhattan.
Supporting well-being
Manhattan recognises five pillars of well-being: physical, social, financial, emotional/mental and work. We offer Talkspace, a leading provider of tele-mental health services, as a free mental health benefit to all team members and their family members age 13+, in addition to our Employee Assistance Program (24/7 free and confidential emotional well-being support). To further enhance how we care for our team members, we offer Care.com business membership for care providers (pet, home, senior and childcare) and financial and physical well-being discounts through Perks at Work.
Providing opportunities for team members to improve and maintain their well-being goals is a priority for Manhattan and we continue to facilitate global challenges where team members can work toward their well-being goals with the added fun of competition and prizes. We’ve also infused well-being breaks into our culture by installing calendar options for 25 and 50-minute meetings.
