People work at Dollar Tree – not employees.
Every person and every job is important
and treated with respect. None of the
Company’s goals could be achieved without the
combined dedication, talent, creativity and hard work of
Dollar Tree associates.
The growth of our Company
depends on the growth of our peo-
ple. We are committed to a positive,
high-performance culture that
fosters growth and development of
individuals and the team as a whole.
In addition, as the Company
continues to expand, more job
opportunities are created. Dollar
Tree has added new jobs in each of
the past five years. We are committed to finding,
developing, and retaining great people.
In our 3,600 stores, nine distribution centers, buying
and assortment planning teams, systems, logistics, supply-
chain and our Store Support Center, Dollar Tree’s 45,000
associates work together every day
with a common objective. We strive
to provide our customers great
products at surprising value and a
fun, friendly, convenient
shopping experience, and in doing
so, to build value for long-term
shareholders. As such, we take our
responsibility very seriously to be
above reproach when making opera-
tional and financial decisions.
A Culture of Respect Adds Value for Associates.
