Sustainability
Employees
At Vantor, we believe that our people are our greatest strength. That’s why we prioritize employee well-being through our industry-leading benefit programs, an engaging work environment and exciting career development opportunities. By providing an inclusive workplace, each employee can make a unique contribution to our collective mission.
Talent Attraction and Retention
Vantor takes a comprehensive approach to team member attraction and retention that centers on hiring excellent candidates and cultivating a rewarding company culture. We use various recruiting strategies to hire candidates, including the Vantor Career site, external platforms, hiring events and local partnerships. We also offer internships, entry-level positions and career development initiatives to help individuals launch their career. To find new talent, Vantor’s Employee Referral Program offers incentives for qualified referrals to candidates who are hired by Vantor. We also continue to prioritize hiring individuals with U.S. government security clearances, which is critical to providing advanced geospatial information applications and analytic services for national security solutions.
Vantor safeguards equal employment opportunities without discrimination or harassment based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age, disability, pregnancy, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or any status protected by law. As stated within our our Nondiscrimination and Anti-Harassment Policy, we maintain an internal audit and reporting system to allow for effective implementation of equal employment throughout all levels of the company.
Vantor has designed compelling compensation and benefits programs that are innovative, competitive and scalable. These programs help us retain top talent in our industry and markets, in alignment with our business and strategic objectives. Our comprehensive compensation and benefits package in the U.S. includes a competitive salary, choice of medical and dental plan, and life and disability insurance. Vantor provides a 401(k) plan with company match, paid holidays and a generous Time Off Policy. We also offer eight weeks of paid parental leave for all new parents for birth or adoption, as well as adoption reimbursement to assist team members who are beginning or expanding their families through the process of adoption. Other select offerings include tuition reimbursement, student loan repayment and various professional development opportunities. Outside of the U.S., we provide benefits to team members designed to be consistent with market specific practices and cultural alignment.
Talent Development
Our people deliver innovative solutions for critical commercial and government missions. We want to empower all Vantor team members to pursue the career path that brings them the greatest professional fulfillment. We focus on enriching our team members’ experiences by enabling them to grow and develop. Providing our team members with tools to continually develop their skills and advance their careers is key to making Vantor a talent magnet.
Vantor's Mid-Year and Annual Performance review contribute to a feedback-rich culture where employees and managers are aligned on performance expectations, performance standing and opportunities for development. Our V2MOM process guides management by objectives, drives both individual and team success, and aligns everyone’s efforts with our strategic direction. While there are many goal setting frameworks available, Vantor has chosen V2MOM because of the transparency, proactivity and clarity that it encourages. As part of our Annual Performance review, Vantor engages in multidimensional performance appraisals, including feedback from peers. In addition to our Mid-Year and Annual Performance review, employees have informal conversations and agile discussions with direct managers to review performance and discuss career development.
We know that actualizing and retaining talent requires growth offerings. Our internal Careers page allows team members to view and apply to all currently posted requisitions. We promote internal mobility and growth through career opportunities and developmental roles.
Employee Safety and Wellbeing
We create a safe and healthy environment where employees can thrive. We are committed to maintaining safe work conditions for our employees and surrounding communities. This commitment to safety starts at the top of the organization. Our Environmental, Health and Safety Policy outlines our expectations for safe operations and reinforces our dedication to continually strengthening safe working practices. We provide an annual, computer-based safety training to applicable employees on Vantor’s safety procedures and practices. We have processes in place for employees to report any safety incidents or near-misses in a timely fashion.
We strive to offer competitive, comprehensive health and wellness programs to Vantor team members, including voluntary benefit options flexible to individual team member and family needs. Vantor provides well-being programs and enhanced mental and emotional health support. We partner with wellness program providers to help all employees manage mental and emotional well-being, including through stress management, therapy and coaching. Vantor also offers an Employee Assistance Program to help employees tackle everyday issues through free access to a licensed professional counselor, certified financial specialist and independent legal attorney.
We also offer four weeks of paid parental leave for all new parents for birth or adoption, as well as adoption reimbursement to assist team members who are beginning or expanding their families through the process of adoption. Beyond parental leave, Vantor offers family critical care leave to employees for the care of a family member with a qualifying health condition and the care of a sick child. Vantor recognizes that employees may require part-time and work-from-home arrangements. We allow hybrid work schedules for employees that are not required to be on-site to perform their job. Vantor also grants part-time and fully remote work arrangements to employees on a case-by-case basis.
Inclusion and Belonging
As a global organization, we know firsthand the strength of diverse teams. We are deeply committed to ensuring all our team members have opportunities for career development and meaningful work. We remain focused on cultivating an inclusive environment.
At Vantor, we are developing inclusive leaders, fostering a sense of community and taking the time to learn more about our colleagues and to appreciate their heritage through exposure, education and the connection of our team members. As stated in our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, we do not tolerate team members who exhibit bias or prejudice or who engage in the harassment of others. Vantor has a Nondiscrimination and Anti-Harassment Policy that outlines our expectations for providing all team members with a healthy, safe and productive work environment where they are treated with respect and dignity in accordance with Vantor’s values. Any team member who violates this policy is subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.
We encourage team members who encounter or observe discrimination or harassment in our workplace to report the matter immediately through any of Vantor’s communications channels, including the Human Resources department, Legal department or the Vantor Ethics Hotline.
