Private vs. Public:
To Your Advantage
Working for a privately held company like Invista has distinct advantages. As private companies, Invista and other Koch companies are able to focus on maximizing long-term value in everything we do, because we are not distracted by the need to meet short-term quarterly earnings projections and stockholder demands. In addition, our historical shareholder practice of reinvesting as much as 90 percent of earnings has created the financial strength necessary to grow and diversify.
By working for Invista, you are also working for Koch Industries, so your opportunities for growth, career path and locale changes, and advancement extend to all of Koch’s businesses around the globe.
The MBM® Philosophy
Our business philosophy, Market Based Management®, is a value system and framework for action that encourages employees to think and act like principled entrepreneurs working to create long-term value for our customers, and society as a whole. This philosophy enables us to practice a process of creative destruction, constantly searching for opportunities to improve and grow. We believe a company must drive change internally to survive and prosper. MBM® based on 10 Guiding Principles:
- Integrity
- Compliance
- Value Creation
- Principled Entrepreneurship™
- Customer Focus
- Knowledge
- Change
- Humility
- Respect
- Fulfillment
These Guiding Principles stem from the belief that freedom is a powerful engine for generating well being, discovery and growth; as well as for operating lawfully and with integrity; driving profitable innovation; striving to continuously improve environmental, health and safety performance; and developing the will and talent to be operators of choice in the communities in which Invista operates.
