Pros

Company Values are used to guide decisions, recruitment and selection, coaching/mentoring, leadership development, performance reviews and to drive culture. Most leaders walk the talk and set the right example. The drive for safe work and life culture is very good. Work life balance is also good.

Cons

Due to some sites having been managed by contractors previously, the high levels of cultural alignment is not shared across all sites, but good progress has been made so far.

Peabody Response

Thank you for your feedback on our company values, including our leadership value. Living all our values is critical to how we operate.
