We are committed to a diverse and equitable workforce.
When we opened our doors back in 2013, ARGONAUT set out to create a place for people’s dream jobs. Since then, we’ve learned a lot about what that can truly mean. While we still have work to do, we are committed to fostering an environment that provides not just diversity, but equity, inclusion, and belonging as well.
We believe that when groups of diverse, divergent, and eclectic minds come together to work without ego, the world’s most valuable creative work is unlocked. So, fueled by our agency values of curiosity, hope, and ambition, we stand committed to being the change we want to see.
CURIOSITY
We will take a deep look within ourselves, listen hard, and create opportunities to learn about each other’s stories and cultures. We will continue to engage in the open dialogues that unfortunately have waited until now to be had, even if they are uncomfortable. We will put in the hard work of rising above our unconscious biases and expand our understanding of what’s truly possible when a diverse group of voices are heard.
HOPE
We have the privilege, and the responsibility, to use the power of creativity to influence not only the culture within our walls but also to reflect and shape the world we want to see outside our walls. A world that is free of racial injustice, white supremacy, and destructive stereotypes. We are committed to extending our internal DE&I mission so that it is reflected by our partners, our collaborators, our vendors, and ultimately in our work.
AMBITION
And perhaps most importantly, we will continue to support and invest in hiring a more diverse workforce that reflects both the vibrant, dynamic, and eclectic world in which we live as well as the audiences whom we serve and influence. We are committed to growth, promotion, and pay equality for all ARGONAUTs. And we will be transparent, sharing publicly not only where we are today, but the promised progress we’ll make.

Note: Our male-female gender classification is based on EEO-1 categories in order to make them align with federal reporting requirements. This categorization does not reflect our opinion, as we believe that gender is nonbinary. We also recognize that diversity can be measured in many different ways, and understand that the data is limited in scope. If you have questions about our culture, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
