Public Storage has been a fixture in neighborhoods nationwide for five decades, and in that time it has drawn strength from the diversity of its employee teams and the communities where its team lives and works. There are more than 5,000 Public Storage team members at 2,500 locations around the country – people of different backgrounds and life experiences. In all, 53% percent of the company is made up of people of color and 70% of the employees are women. This diversity extends to the highest level, where 50% of Public Storage’s top C-level executives are people of color. Public Storage cares about offering opportunities to all employees, and has programs to help each grow and move up, including facilitating nearly a half million training sessions last year companywide. The company is united in one common goal – creating a diverse and inclusive environment within the organization where everyone supports one another.
