Diversity and Inclusion

We hear those words a lot these days, and some companies say they’re big on them.
At Pioneer, we go beyond words on paper. The principles of diversity and inclusion are entwined in our DNA.

We respect differences and cultures, encourage unique perspectives, and pride ourselves on recruiting and keeping the most talented employees from all walks of life.

A diverse company is a strong company. We already know that. It dates back to the Parker & Parsley days, when the company upheld this simple principle: A good idea is a good idea, regardless of whether it comes from somebody working in an office, on a rig or somewhere in between.

You are valued for you here. No two people fit into the same box, and we welcome that, embrace it and celebrate it.

Be you. It’s what keeps us OnePioneer.
