OUR AREAS OF FOCUS
Having distinct areas of focus ensures that all aspects — from hiring practices to workplace culture — are addressed continually and dynamically at RXMG.
The landscape is ever-evolving with new philosophies and shifting societal contexts. Having areas of focus allows us to stay updated, responsive, and relevant to systemic issues and emerging challenges. By honing in on specific areas, we can ensure our initiatives are thoughtful, effective, and aligned with RXMG’s overall mission and goals.
Here’s what we’ve been doing.
Financial Support
We know that resources (time, personnel, budget) are often limited. We allocate resources for maximum impact, often supporting various causes financially.
We try to incorporate a relevant organization at every opportunity we can. Whether that’s gathering tech items for donation, matching employee contributions to charities of their choice, or consistently donating a portion of our profits each quarter.

Diverse Team
We employ an ethnically diverse staff and are proud to have multiple women in influential leadership roles. We are developing an internship program that we hope will create opportunities for people from marginalized communities to gain on-the-job training and experience.
We work with all of our hiring managers to ensure that they receive training about diversity issues and to remove any unconscious biases in interviews and staff feedback.
Education & Awareness
Continuous learning is vital. We must immerse ourselves in specific topics, gather data, learn from our initiatives, and adjust our approaches accordingly. We have a dedicated DEI Content & Events Team that works together to curate thoughtful and relevant ideas to acknowledge, celebrate and educate.
We use these opportunities to create a dialogue with RXMG staff on specific topics, leading to greater awareness and engagement to so many causes, and to also unite us and build empathy and a greater understanding for one another.
We recently sponsored a company-wide workshop to further our understanding of DEI fundamentals and increase awareness. We have an active calendar of events to connect our team and have everyone feel included.
Real-Time Response
At RXMG, we understand the unique challenges presented by current events and the need for tailored communication and support. We stand together as a team, offering assistance and solidarity during times of injustice, challenges, and unrest. Whether it’s acknowledging significant milestones like the appointment of the first black and openly gay House Press Secretary or providing resources to engage with the conflict in Ukraine, or prioritizing supporting our fellow peers amidst recent acts of Asian hate crimes by lifting their voices.
We also regularly survey our staff to get real-time feedback on our DEI efforts and initiatives.
Advocacy & Volunteering
Time is the ultimate resource. Where we spend our ‘free’ time is so telling. It can define us. Volunteering is part of our core at RXMG for so many reasons. It can build empathy, provide networking, and give a sense of purpose, but also drive positive change, fill resource gaps, and foster a sense of civic responsibility. We share this passion for helping with our teams by encouraging them to be involved in their communities and with organizations that interest them.
We set annual goals for hundreds of volunteer hours and have proudly hit the milestones each year.
