Community Involvement Overview
Momentive Performance Materials is a good corporate citizen and believes in giving back to the communities where our employees work and live. Momentive and its employees assist communities in several important ways:
Internship and Co-Op Programs
The Company’s industry leader status is a direct result of our drive to have the most talented employees in all aspects of our business. Our continued success is based on our ability to recruit, develop and maintain an exceptional and diverse workforce. By having a world-class internship and co-op programs it is our desire to support the education of the next generation of best and brightest employees. It is our goal to benefit students in the teaching of our values of teamwork, external focus, creative solutions, talent development, process excellence, execution, and integrity, while we benefit from the new ideas and energy that these exceptional students bring to the workplace.
TEAM Momentive
TEAM Momentive is the employee-driven, volunteer arm of the Company that raises funds, donates time, and collects goods for various charities and public service organizations. Employee volunteers take on projects large and small in the community to help improve the lives of residents. Whether cheering on athletes at the Special Olympics, walking to raise money for cancer research, or collecting food for local food pantries, Momentive employees and their families are known for their kindness, generosity and commitment to the community.
