NURTURING AN
EXCEPTIONAL WORKPLACE
At Campbell, we are committed to attracting a diverse group of talented employees and providing all our associates with development opportunities and a culture in which they can flourish. Our Employee Value Proposition is intended to communicate this commitment:
Campbell...
the ingredients to be extraordinary
Where icon brands thrive.
People are valued.
And you can make a difference.
We take pride in the welcoming culture that we have created at our company. At the same time, we recognize that we still have much to do to build a diverse and inclusive workforce and to provide our employees with career development and quality-of-life enhancements that make Campbell a special place to work.
Inspiring our employees about their work and their company is a priority at Campbell. We believe that employees who feel that they are valued are more likely to be fully engaged in our company's success. For the past six years, the dual concepts of "Winning in the Workplace" and "Winning in the Marketplace" have been our driving principles.
Our Promise of "Campbell Valuing People , People Valuing Campbell" captures the spirit of our philosophy and forms the basis of our social contract with our employees. We believe that we must tangibly demonstrate to our employees that we value their lifelong aspirations and that, in so doing, we will inspire them to value our company agenda. We strive to uphold Our Promise by providing employees with the resources required to do their jobs well; competitive compensation and benefits; the opportunity to learn; and grow through their work; and the chance to help shape our workplace and business. Open, honest and consistent communication is also essential to our employees' appreciation of their contributions to our company's success.
Career Development and Training
To help employees advance their careers and attain their professional goals, Campbell provides a variety of programs to support their individual development.
Most salaried employees participate in an annual Organizational Resource Planning (ORP) process, which provides feedback and guidance on their strengths, development needs and career advancement opportunities. Annual performance evaluations are based on assessments of each individual's accomplishments in the prior year and whether the results were achieved in a manner consistent with the Campbell Leadership Model that calls upon all employees to inspire trust, create direction, drive organization alignment, build organization vitality, execute with excellence and produce extraordinary results. We ask our employees to endeavor to bring our Campbell Leadership Model to life every day, and provide ongoing training on how to do so. In this way, we measure both "what" they do and "how" they do it.
In addition to providing performance reviews, we encourage employees—from individual contributors to senior leaders— to grow and learn on the job. Our programs and initiatives include mentoring, tuition assistance, leadership development for manufacturing supervisors, coaching for general managers and a two-year CEO Institute for a select group of the company's leaders.
We also provide training programs through Campbell University, both in-person and online, aimed at building skills and improving manager quality and effectiveness. Employees also take online courses as part of our Winning With Integrity compliance and ethics training program, on topics such as the company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, financial integrity, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, conflicts of interest, fair competition and other subjects directly related to their specific job responsibilities.
