We view each of our companies' approximately 9,000 hourly and salaried employees as leaders.
We attract, develop and retain highly capable, diverse and engaged employees at all levels who embrace our Values and take initiative to deliver business results in a rewarding work environment. We say you “Can’t Beat the Experience” of working at an Altria company. This means we give our employees opportunities to rise to the challenges of manufacturing and marketing products in highly regulated, dynamic and competitive industries. We recruit and develop talented leaders through a four-step process that focuses both on what we do and how we do it:
We recruit talent for leadership intelligence.
We affirm leadership behaviors.
We teach leadership responsibilities.
We provide our people with experiences to grow their leadership capabilities.
