Is it the paycheque or the culture and opportunities? Maybe it’s about working independently; being creative and making decisions that have a big impact on the business. Or maybe it’s because your purpose is the same as ours – you want to help Canadians save money so they can live better.
People often ask us what it’s like to work here. What makes us di�erent from other companies?
We say – it’s our culture.
Our culture is our greatest competitive strength. It guides us in everything we do – always has.
And it will never change.

How accessible and transparent
are senior leaders?
It’s how we treat each other and how you feel when you walk through the door.
We’re friendly. You’ll see it in the hallways, the café and the stores. We make an e�ort to get to know each other and support our colleagues during di�cult times.
We can speak openly to anyone in the company – including the CEO. Anytime. Leaders ask for input and share the company’s wins, challenges and goals – every week with every single associate.
We do the right thing. In 2010, we raised and donated $23 million for national & local charities; provided basic necessities and home comforts for communities a�ected by disaster; and rallied around our neighbours when they needed us most.

We set strategy, make decisions and buy products independently. We know our strategy, goals and results. We see how we �t in and know we can make a di�erence.
We collaborate and make decisions quickly. Speak up – your opinion matters. Our entrepreneurial spirit has made us successful. And that will never change.
