Associates and Careers

We exist to help make complex projects simple, successful and sustainable, and our vision is to be the Ultimate Project Success Company.

We help build much more than just residential and commercial structures – we help build relationships and careers. Building the success of the communities where we live and work matters.

Our values are the deeply ingrained principles that guide our company’s actions. They serve as our cultural cornerstones for our business relationships, customer relationships and company growth.

We empower our associates to understand their role in contributing to our health and safety culture. Our high standards for safety, expectations for safe behaviors and global safety rules and enforcement processes enable us to drive continuous improvement.

Learn more about our Health & Safety efforts, including worksite safety and safety training, in our ESG Report.

Our career development philosophy is centered around the idea that our associates define and drive their career aspirations, but our leaders and our organization play an instrumental role in helping our associates succeed.

We value our associates and want them to grow, develop and stay with us. We believe in promoting from within and building our associates’ dynamic skillsets to make our customers’ complex projects simple, successful and sustainable.

We offer a diverse catalog of on-demand, virtual and live learning resources, including leadership development and mentoring programs, in addition to ongoing associate engagement surveys. Our aim is to help our associates drive performance and maximize potential.

We believe that empowering a wide range of perspectives, promoting a diverse and inclusive culture and providing development opportunities, mentorships and resources to associates of all backgrounds gives us a competitive advantage. We believe that inclusivity leads to everyone bringing their authentic selves to work and every unique voice being heard.

For example, our Business Resource Groups (BRGs) provide our diverse associates with opportunities to find affiliation, share common experiences and strengthen Ferguson’s culture of inclusion and belonging within our organization:

• LEAD’s (Listening, Empowering and Advocating for Diversity) mission is to foster a workplace where our Black associates can thrive by bringing diverse perspectives that contribute to Ferguson’s business objectives.
• EmpowHER’s goal is to provide an inclusive environment where women achieve their professional and personal goals through support, networking, mentorship, development and empowerment.
• Building Pride aims to create a safe, inclusive workplace that empowers LGBTQ+ members and allies to enhance professional growth and achieve organizational goals.
• VALOR (Veterans and Allies for Leading Organizational Results) is a dedicated community of associates with a shared passion to recognize the contributions and honor the sacrifices of those who have served and their families.

More details on our BRGs and inclusion and diversity efforts can be found within our ESG Report.

There is nothing more important than the health and well-being of our associates, and we offer a comprehensive total rewards and benefits program to ensure that our associates are supported. Taking care of one another—including our mental health—is critical to our overall approach.

Our goal as an organization is to support a comprehensive program that focuses on four key pillars of a holistic benefits package: Emotional, Financial, Physical and Social.
