Corine Chartrand highlights three aspects, which go beyond salary and social benefits, to stand out from other employers:
- Think big, together
First, she emphasizes the importance of recruiting talent that aligns with the company’s values. Petal’s collective ambition, centered on commitment, requires openness to all ideas, demonstrated by initiatives such as “Ask me anything” sessions to foster communication between employees and leaders.
- Employee experience at the heart of actions
Corine Chartrand promotes a flexible work approach, prioritizing the creation of meaningful moments and connections rather than making physical presence mandatory. The company stands out by creating attractive workspaces and having a team dedicated to employee experience. This is reflected in targeted internal communications, well-being-focused events, and a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion.
- Creating a motivating and inclusive workplace
Finally, given Petal’s significant expansion, the company focuses on strengthening its team and activities.

The company invests in social initiatives, including Centraide campaigns, and promotes diversity, inclusion, and equity, aiming to create a space where everyone, regardless of their background or culture, feels respected and happy to give their best.
« You can attract people with a salary, but we are convinced that’s not what keeps them. We instead choose talent that aligns with our organization’s values. We see ourselves as the next big thing at Petal, so we look for people who also think big like us! »
