Community Involvement

myWork/Life

Northrop Grumman partners with you so you can be your best, both inside and outside of the workplace. We know it’s important to maintain a healthy balance between your personal and professional life, which is why we not only offer but encourage time away from work. Resources like our back-up child and elder care programs demonstrate our commitment to supporting you and your family through all stages and experiences. When it comes to career journeys, we understand everyone’s path is different. Our diverse roles, experiences and learning opportunities can help expand your expertise, feed your curiosity and fuel your passions.

Northrop Grumman cares about building a community where everyone is valued, treated with respect and has equal access to opportunities.

Spending time to connect with friends and family can strengthen relationships, social stability and community connectivity. Learn about ways to volunteer, engage in social activities, meet like-minded people and find resources for social support.

Employee Resource Groups

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are a key part of Northrop Grumman’s commitment to diversity and inclusion, leaning in on diversity recruiting, employment branding and community relationships, as well as creating programming, networking, and development for members. Across our company, more than 28,000 employees come together in 14 ERGs with 280 chapters. And while their interests may vary, their goal is one: to offer a voice to each and every member of our Northrop Grumman team.

Expand your community, stay connected and meet people across the company. Join an Employee Resource Group (ERG) for networking, community outreach, professional and personal development, and recruiting. Learn more.

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

We leverage our diverse and inclusive workforce to achieve superior business results. Our mission is to expand diversity, equity, and inclusion through a developed and engaged global workforce and workplace by building leadership capability and organizational capacity. Learn More.

Small Acts is a program that offers resources to make it easier to engage with colleagues. When done with honesty and integrity, these small acts have the power to create inclusive relationships – characterized by mutual respect, acceptance, and support of each other’s success.

Northrop Grumman Foundation’s Social Justice Campaign supports social justice, unity, and equality. Real change starts with understanding, and to achieve that we need to listen and be open to having tough conversations. We launched a Unity & Social Justice Page with resources to help and encourage employees to engage with each other.

If you are looking for additional support, please reach out to others, join the Employee Resource Groups, and leverage the NGCare Employee Assistance Program (EAP) through ComPsych available to you and your family.
