Value of diversity

Diversity strengthens us by promoting unique viewpoints and challenges each of us to think beyond our traditional frames of reference.

Operating in 56 countries with over 160 nationalities, inclusion and diversity is foundational to what we do and the culture to which we aspire. It shapes our approach to recruitment and retention and influences how we mentor and develop future leaders so that we have an employee base that reflects the communities in which we operate.

We believe helping all employees thrive and reach their full potential creates competitive advantage, enabling teams and individuals to be more innovative, resilient, and better equipped to navigate complex and evolving global markets. When employees can thrive, reach their full potential, and deliver their best, it enhances our competitive advantage.

Principles and approach

Employee Resource Groups

ExxonMobil supports participation in Employee Resource Groups (ERGs). These groups further inclusion through education and recognition of cultural heritages and experiences. ERGs support recruitment efforts, new hire orientation, professional development, and mentorship. Employee Resource Groups are open to all employees and each one has a senior leader sponsor.

Promoting an inclusive work environment

ExxonMobil’s reach is extensive, with operations / product marketing in most of the world’s countries. Our employees span the globe and share a commitment to excellence in pursuit of the Company’s strategic objectives.

The Company’s global business context provides employees the opportunity to think beyond traditional frames of reference and requires effective cross-cultural collaboration. This begins with a genuine interest to better understand our globally diverse colleagues.
