The Mission Technologies Wellbeing Committee recently conducted a survey to listen in on how employees felt about their own nutrition and eating habits.

Here’s what they found: based on benefit vendor trends and survey participation feedback, healthy eating habits and weight management continue to be top areas of focus. Many participants reported eating balanced meals, however they still faced barriers like motivation, time, and emotional eating. Nearly all participants made healthier changes following a diagnosis, and half have worked with a dietitian or nutritionist, which provided the wellbeing committee with great insight into which support matters most.

With this feedback in mind, the Mission Technologies Wellbeing committee hosted it’s 2026 Lunch & Learn: Cut Through the Noise, featuring two registered dietitians who helped attendees gain confidence in navigating nutrition with clarity.
