As the Operations and Talent Acquisition Manager at InfoTrust, I frequently get asked, “what is your favorite thing about working at InfoTrust?”

Of course, I have been on the other side of the table and had to figure out if this position and company would be a good match for me. I knew that InfoTrust was awarded as one of the best places to work for several years, offered a fantastic benefits package and was a part of a growing industry.

But, when it came to deciding if InfoTrust was the right place for me, I was most attracted to the Core Values.

Now that I am on the team, I must say that I am very impressed by how the core values shine through in everything that we do. We don’t just “talk the talk,” we also “walk the walk”.

However, there is one value that speaks the most to me and makes it easy for me to answer candidates with complete honesty – My favorite thing about working at InfoTrust is Ownership.

Let me explain:

Ownership in the Workplace

Ownership means I have an obligation to the organization in terms of results, and that I have an obligation to act on the items that impact those results. I may have to assemble a team to help me bring about results, but ultimately, I must be accountable and own the results of my actions. 

InfoTrust’s Core Values are at the heart of creating an environment where employees feel empowered to act and bring about change. Because we have a culture that values ownership:

Of course, I think that the other core values are important too. But, I know that each one of the InfoTrust employees is looking to make a difference, take on new challenges and always be developing themselves.

We all welcome taking ownership – and because of that, we are absolutely one of the best places to work!
