APPLIED MATERIALS | LEAD WITH PURPOSE

Applied Materials leads with purpose through a values-based approach to innovation, decision-making, and community action.

We align what matters to our employees and the communities where we live and work with who we are and what we stand for as a company. We turn our values into action by investing in our local communities. Employee engagement amplifies our positive community impact, often via company-initiated events that connect our people with local non-profits.

We are committed to upholding the highest ethical standards and ensuring compliance in the workplace and all business activities. Responsibility and integrity are core to our success and vital to creating a culture of mutual trust and respect with our stakeholders—including employees, customers, suppliers, competitors, and the public.
