Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

We want to provide the best employee experience in SaaS. That means making Hootsuite a place where everyone feels safe, welcomed, valued, and empowered to do their best work without compromising who they are.

#PayUpForProgress

Hootsuite pledges to honour equal pay for all employees, regardless of factors such as gender, sexual orientation, neurodiversity, age, race, or ethnicity.

Through measurable actions, beginning with annual Pay Equity Assessments, we aim to address and eliminate existing pay gaps within the organization.

Employee Resource Groups: One team, many voices

When we asked our employees how we could better support members of underrepresented groups at Hootsuite, they responded with two requests: help us create safe, inclusive spaces and provide more learning opportunities for all employees.

Based on their feedback, we launched our first Employee Resource Groups:
the Women's ERG, the Neurodiversity ERG, the Black ERG, the LGBTQ+ ERG & the Parents & Caregivers ERG. These groups are an important step toward educating everyone at Hootsuite about the lived experiences of these groups and they play a key role in guiding our collective journey to allyship.

Becoming allies for diversity

Real connection begins with learning about each other. Through our partners, we seek to learn and address the challenges faced by underrepresented groups. Their support also increases our pipeline of diverse talent, provides an opportunity to expand our network, and helps our leaders build diverse teams where everyone feels engaged and included.

Belonging isn’t about asking people to fit in. It’s about asking them to be who they are and be the best version of themselves.
