Diversity

Butler embraces diversity in our nation, in our communities and in our hiring practices.

Why is diversity important in the workplace? Why do we embrace it as a fundamental objective? Why is it inherently good for people from varying backgrounds to work together?

We believe, when people who are diverse work together, their shared tasks become the things that bind them. The work at hand, along with the collaboration of bringing it to a successful end, creates an improved community and a higher quality work product for our clients.

In that sense, diversity dissolves differences. And, in the process, it enriches our lives and opens our minds.
