Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) at Elastic, known as Elastician Resource Groups, have been integral to the company's culture since 2016, evolving from informal Slack channels into structured entities by 2021. These ERGs are designed to foster diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) by providing structured communities for employees with shared identities, interests, or backgrounds, enhancing a sense of belonging and facilitating networking, learning, and advocacy. Elastic, a globally distributed company, emphasizes inclusivity through its Source Code, a set of shared values that celebrate differences and address cultural challenges constructively. The company hosts seven formal ERGs: The Accessibles, Blasticians, ElastAsians, Elasticians Unidos, Rainbow Stack, Mil-Asticians, and Women of Elastic, each focusing on empowering their respective communities, promoting DEI initiatives, and contributing to the company's inclusive workplace culture.
