Working At MFS
The culture and work environment we've built at MFS for nearly a century are an important part of who we are. They remind us to do the right thing for our clients and each other. Whether it's providing robust employee benefits, offering flexible working arrangements or nurturing a culture of mutual respect and collaboration, maintaining a competitive and rewarding workplace is an ongoing priority for MFS. In short, MFS is invested in your experience.
Our culture fosters collaboration over competition. That means truly appreciating what we each bring to the table, respecting different opinions and believing that teamwork gets us to the best outcome.
Our values drive us toward the same purpose – creating value responsibly – and doing that in a way that involves humility and respect.
- Succeeding together means we want our colleagues to be at their best, so we share information and help each other out.
- Never settle means we hold ourselves to the highest standards and reach for the better result.
- Do the right thing means making the best — not always the easiest — decisions for clients and each other.
- Lead with passion means we approach the responsibility for taking care of other people’s money with confidence and conviction.
- Celebrate all differences means we appreciate what makes each of us unique and embrace those differences by creating a workplace where everyone feels heard, valued and included.
Our investment. MFS employees give a lot to the firm and the firm gives a lot back to us.
- Competitive benefits – From generous medical and dental coverage to long-term disability and a company-funded retirement plan, MFS benefits aim to make sure your life outside of work is as well supported as your life inside the firm.
- Workplace flexibility – Knowing that employees will be happier and more productive at work if they can take care of their home life, we offer flexible work schedules, generous paid time off, back-up childcare, tuition reimbursement and employee assistance programs, among others.
- Giving back – Supporting our communities is part of our culture and important to our employees, so we make substantial investments in local charities and give employees ample opportunities to fulfill their desire for civic engagement.
