WHY PRONGHORN?

OUR
Core Values

We believe that our core values must be ingrained in all aspects of our corporate culture in order for our employees to reach their full potential and for our company to be successful. We will preserve what has made our company special by maintaining these core values as our company grows.

Commitment To Safety and
the Environment

We are committed to conducting all aspects of our business activities in ways that will protect the health and safety of our employees, other workers, the environment and the people who make up the communities where we live and do business.

LEADERS IN
DIVERSITY

Many companies believe a cash donation fulfils their commitment to diversity. At Pronghorn, we believe in taking a more proactive approach. By partnering with the Métis-owned business Carvel, Pronghorn is dedicated to providing hands-on training and education so we can help shape and mold the engineers of the future.
