Environmental Sustainability
We work to reduce waste and energy use, promote recycling, and educate our employees about the benefits of conservation.
Responsible footprint
We have 69 branches located primarily in California, one in Denver, Colorado and one in Durham, North Carolina, making our total branch footprint lower than our peers. Under our active property management approach, we review and implement space, energy, construction and renovation efficiency opportunities. We have 15 offices within LEED-certified buildings. Three of those offices have more than 25 employees.
