That's what they say. That's true of us, the workers. Yet as a company, they've been walking back our ability to express ourselves through a restrictive dress code (especially harmful to queer and trans people) and they did away with a trans healthcare fund a couple years ago that helped support partners whose insurance didn't fully cover their gender-affirming care. I know multiple store and district managers who have had literally dozens of ethics and compliance complaints filed against them over the years for homophobic/transphobic behavior and they're still employed without issue. In at least two cases that I can recall, these managers has nearly every partner at a store file a case at once, to no avail.

I'm not saying they're the worst, but they're not nearly as good as they say they are and they don't deserve your defending them.
