It should come as no surprise that as a cooperative that helps independent, family-owned businesses, CCA Global Partners believes success is best achieved through collaboration.

The company’s culture is guided by “The CCA Way,” which emphasizes keeping an open mind, energizing the team, showing respect and taking responsibility. Employees are encouraged to share ideas, collaborate and take ownership of projects.

Professional development is another hallmark. Employees have access to CCA University, Dale Carnegie leadership training, personalized development plans and lunch-and-learn sessions. CCA also funds conferences, seminars, certifications and other learning opportunities tailored to employees’ roles and career goals.

CCA invests heavily in employee well-being through hybrid work, wellness incentives, free gym memberships, onsite fitness facilities, mental health resources and pet insurance. Paid time off, retirement savings with a company match and wellness programs also extend to part- time employees.

A particularly notable benefit is CCA’s inclusive New Parent Leave. Eligible employees who give birth receive up to 12 weeks of paid leave. Other eligible parents receive up to six weeks of paid bonding leave, including non-birth, adoptive, foster and intended parents. The policy also recognizes surrogacy and legal guardianship.

Recognition and participation are embedded in the culture through peer-to-peer appreciation, milestone awards, Gallup engagement surveys, town halls and regular conversations with leadership, giving employees a voice in shaping their workplace.
