The medical technology company, which has been growing quickly thanks in part to several acquisitions, has made a big commitment to volunteerism and sustainability. Selected employees can volunteer for 40 hours annually through Operation Smile. For every used, program-approved medical device hospitals have returned, the company has donated and planted a tree (20,000 and counting!). “We aren’t afraid to tackle big-ticket items and projects that are out of our comfort zone,” says one employee. “The culture here tends to be motivated by the unknown and complex.”
