EMPLOYEES

Promoting Flexibility and Volunteerism at Simon

Improving the overall workplace experience for employees helps promote a healthy work-life balance for employees at Simon. Flexible work hours, the ability to work remotely, prioritizing a healthy culture, competitive compensation, comfortable office conditions, and opportunities for professional and personal growth, wellness benefits, and opportunities for social connections promote a flexible work environment that appeals across generations of workers. Companies that create opportunities for employees to engage in positive and meaningful activities inside and outside the office enjoy increased morale, commitment, and performance. Led by a dedicated committee of Simon employees and leaders, the Simon Employee Association (SEA) is an employee-focused program that creates a variety of opportunities and experiences that increase employee engagement and help make Simon a rewarding place to work. Simon also supports activities that enhance, benefit, and serve the communities in which we live and work; this aligns with our core values of responsible citizenship. Corporate and field employees volunteer and participate in a variety of programs and events throughout the year, which typically include but are not limited to:

— Local and national volunteer and philanthropic service and fundraising opportunities — Community engagement opportunities — Lunch and learn seminars — Company picnics and special events — Employee mix and mingle events — Corporate challenges and internal Simon sports leagues
