Living Our Values

For over 35 years, we’ve been united in our efforts to support the environment, human rights and initiatives for women and girls—work we believe is becoming more and more important. We’re committed to doing business in a way that ensures a sustainable future.

That means we:

  • Strive to protect our limited natural resources, fight climate change and shift the fashion industry from a take-make-waste manufacturing model to a circular one.
  • Work to support human rights and the fair treatment of all people in everything we do.
  • Respect and honor differences in gender, age, race, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation and political views.
  • Do all we can to empower women and girls, especially as advocates for the environment.

 

 

Our Culture

At EILEEN FISHER, we strive to create an inclusive and respectful workplace. We all benefit when we work in an environment where our differences are valued. We all succeed when we are respected, supported and valued for who we are. We all thrive in a culture of inclusion.

Our culture promotes teamwork within a diverse community. Employees partner collaboratively as members of both departmental and cross-company teams. We practice open, honest communication and believe that every person should have a voice. We believe in the fundamental potential of every person and are committed to cultivating conditions that empower people.

How We Hire

During the interview process, you’ll experience our culture and our values and meet the employees you’d be working with. It’s a two-way conversation that looks at what a great place to work means—for you and for us.

As an equal-opportunity employer, we are committed to providing a workplace free from harassment and discrimination. That means recruiting, hiring, training and promoting qualified people of all backgrounds and making all employment decisions without regard to any protected status.
