“Being a socially responsible company is part of our overall commitment to maintaining corporate integrity in all aspects of our business practices, operating ethically and contributing positively to the communities in which we live and work.”
– Brian Halla, Chairman and CEO
At National Semiconductor, we take real pride in the fact that we're a global company with a diverse employee base. The realities and responsibilities that come with being a global corporation help to shape our unique culture. Our products are designed, developed, manufactured and sold in different locations all over the world, which allows us to bring together a diverse mix of people who help enrich our products and our company.
We value the contribution every employee makes whether it’s working on a multi-million dollar international project or a local task with department coworkers. At National we value the different backgrounds and viewpoints from each employee. We feel each person is heard and contributes towards the success for the company and individual development as a National employee.
National Semiconductor actively and enthusiastically reaches out to a diverse group of talented people from a broad spectrum of organizations and communities. We partner with organizations like The Society of Women Engineers (SWE), The National Association of Black Engineers (NSBE), Math Engineering Science Achievement (MESA), The Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) and others, in order to help these great organizations reach their goals and to inform their members about National Semiconductor careers.
National is a company with a strong social conscience and our employees love to get involved. Through our Community Care Program, you can personally make a difference in your local community. Opportunities for involvement include:
- Volunteering with your family and friends at one of the many company-sponsored community projects
- Participating in holiday giving programs that raise funds and gifts for families in need
- Doubling the impact of your donations by requesting a company match through National's Giving Program
While employees are at the heart of National's Community Care Program, the company also invests significant resources in bettering our communities around the world.
Through the National Semiconductor Foundation, National helps improve education and addresses critical community needs. Some of our Foundation efforts include:
- Grants that enhance science and math curriculum and teaching methods
