Inclusive Diversity at A&M
Our core values influence everything we do, everyone we hire and every client with whom we interact. From our first email in the morning to our last call at night, our values guide our relationships with each other, our clients and the world.
A&M has a legacy of delivering client value and helping employees evolve both professionally and personally. As we grow, the core values on which A&M was founded remain constant. Living by those principles and encouraging our employees to embrace different perspectives and get involved in the causes that are meaningful to them inside and out of the firm are what fuel the energy of our culture.
Experience A&M Life
A&M prides itself on a culture of work-life balance. We are a collaborative, diverse and inclusive environment that values client service, entrepreneurship, staying fit and having fun.
Each year and around the world, A&M offices host networking, sporting and learning and development events to enhance our employees’ experiences and help build upon the core values that have established and continue to fuel A&M as a firm.
The JP Morgan Challenge; A&M Young Professionals group; anniversary and client appreciation receptions are among some of A&M’s leading events that are celebrated and widely anticipated by colleagues around the world.
At A&M, we value engaging with our local communities around the globe and are proud of our professionals’ efforts to give back.
True to our entrepreneurial spirit, we understand that Community Engagement concerns are fluid and changing. That’s why we have created voluntary, internal giving programs to help support employees and other people impacted by certain natural disasters. And that’s why we empower our professionals to donate their time and talents to causes near and dear to their hearts. We know that the added value of global community engagement reates opportunities in a myriad of ways and brings people together.
As an example, A&M’s Giving Back program was formed to develop and support the charitable interests of our communities by providing employees with volunteer opportunities and channeling our contributions to local, US and global charity organizations. More than a quarter of the firm’s employees participate in the program, which continues to expand. The Giving Back program is one way we show our appreciation as a firm to the communities that contribute to our livelihood and help us to grow.
