Culture Story: Our Purpose
For PulteGroup, our purpose is the foundation upon which our company and our culture is built. Before we define our organizational goals or the principles under which we operate, we must start with “Why do we do what we do?” Today, consumers, investors and employees expect, and even demand, that the companies they buy from, invest in and work for do more than just make a profit. They expect organizations to be clear about the value they bring to society. It’s no longer just about what a company does, but how it operates.
