Our Many Diverse Voices

Diversity is one of our core values as a Company, and it’s also something very personal and unique to each employee. Who better to tell our story of diversity than the people who are part of that story. “The Many Diverse Voices of Betterment” shares how our unique backgrounds and perspectives make us stronger, together, as a Company as a whole, and as individuals. Our diverse and inclusive culture and what diversity means at SOC and Day & Zimmermann is told through personal, unscripted first-person narratives.

SOC's Take Our Daughters & Sons to Work

On SOC's Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work, children joined SOC as "employees for the day." SOC volunteers made this day possible by running sessions, coordinating kids, organizing food and gifts, filming, and more.

Operation First Response

SOC has contributed items of need to wounded soldiers traveling from war zones to combat hospitals.  As a first response, injured service-men and women who arrive at trauma centers with nothing more than wounds and bandages, receive backpacks with important personal and clothing items and a letter of support from SOC staff while being treated in combat support hospitals. SOC sent backpacks directly to soldiers in Afghanistan with letters dedicated from our teams, families, and children at local schools.
