Company Overview

Hallmark Cards, Inc. believes that when you care enough, you can change the world. That’s why we are dedicated to creating a more emotionally connected world and making a difference in the lives of others.

Founded in 1910 by teenage entrepreneur J.C. Hall, and remaining a private company with family members on the board of directors today, Hallmark’s businesses employ more than 20,000 people worldwide.

While there are many ways to experience Hallmark, the experiences that matter most to the company are the ones our customers are able to share with their friends and loved ones. We strive each day to help those experiences – and those connections – come to life.

In each of our businesses we aim to be good community partners, we believe embracing diversity and inclusion is the best way to understand and serve our employees and consumers, and we strive to be environmentally responsible. This all helps to fulfill our purpose of inspiring meaningful relationships and enhancing lives.

Culture
Hallmark believes in translating caring and creativity into action. This is at the core of the company culture and what drives the company as an employer of choice.

From caring about its employees and consumers to establishing a global creative community of more than 750 members producing new products every day, Hallmark is dedicated to creating a more emotionally connected world and making a difference in the lives of others.

Hallmark’s employees are the driving force behind its successful portfolio of businesses and their contributions enable the company to provide millions of dollars in cash and product donations to worthy causes each year. In addition, its employees provide tens of thousands of volunteer hours in the communities in which they operate.

Diversity and inclusion play a vital part in what the company does by creating an environment where everyone can bring their full and authentic selves to work every day. Hallmark believes celebrating our differences is the best way to understand and serve its customers and to fulfill its purpose of inspiring meaningful relationships and enhancing lives.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Hallmark integrates diversity, equity and inclusion into every aspect of its business, including hiring, vendor relationships, product creation and creating a welcoming work environment. Equally important is promoting awareness in the community.

Starting with the Hall family and extending across Hallmark’s portfolio of businesses, respect for all individuals is central to the company’s work and the lives employees lead. An example of this being put into practice at the company is the employee resource groups found throughout Hallmark including those for African Americans, Asian Americans, employees with disabilities, Latinxs, members of the LGBTQIA community, active military and veterans of the service, women, and young professionals.
