GoDaddy's Inclusive Culture: Fostering Collaboration and Engagement Among a Global Team
At GoDaddy, we're committed to building a culture that values diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. Why? Because it's not just the right thing to do, it's also what makes us stronger as a company and as a community.
 
When we prioritize representation, we empower our employees to bring their unique perspectives and life experiences to the table, making us more innovative, creative, and competitive in the tech industry. And when we support a diverse range of entrepreneurs in our communities, we're building a better world for everyone.
 
We're proud to report that we've achieved pay parity for women and underrepresented communities in almost all areas of our business, and we're continually working to reduce the impact of unconscious bias within our organization. Our efforts have been recognized by external organizations, but we know there's always more work to be done.
 
That's why we're committed to transparency and accountability. We're sharing our successes and areas for improvement in our 2022 Sustainability Report, and we invite you to join us on this journey towards a more diverse, equitable, inclusive, and belonging workplace and world.
 
"We believe ‘You Belong Here’. And while acquiring great talent is never easy, our ability to identify, attract and hire diverse talent is essential to our continued efforts to build and cultivate a highly engaged, respectful and inclusive culture,” said David W, Vice President of Talent Acquisition.
 
Powered by a global workforce
At GoDaddy, we're a global company with a team of talented employees located all around the world. We understand that our hybrid workplace model, with some employees in offices and others working remotely, can sometimes create physical and temporal distance between teams. That's why we're committed to fostering an environment that promotes communication and collaboration between all of our employees, regardless of where they are.
 
We believe in creating meaningful opportunities for engagement and cultivating an inclusive community. That's why we've established 11 employee resource groups (ERGs) that bring together employees around common missions, identities, affinities, and interests. These groups are not exclusive, as they often include allies and champions who share the same goals and values.
 
Our ERGs provide a community for employees to build relationships, enhance their own and others' professional development, participate in corporate projects and programs, learn from one another, and most importantly, have fun! By fostering a supportive and inclusive culture, we empower our employees to do their best work and create a more connected and collaborative workplace for everyone.
 
"Acceptance and support have never lacked during my last 10+ years working at GoDaddy, and I’m grateful to see that it’s only increasing as time goes on. I would not have stayed with GoDaddy as long as I have if I believed that the company’s fundamental core values didn’t align with my own,” said Jane D, GoDaddy’s Operations & Services Manager of Care Products.
