At the Gates Foundation, we have bold aspirations and five core values that guide our actions.
We succeed when our employees thrive. We offer an exceptional benefit package and work environment to support you.
We want to inspire people to take action to change the world—and that includes our employees. Our employee programs enable you to get connected and get involved, both in and out of the office.
To have the greatest possible impact, we must make diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) a priority, starting with the people we hire and how we work to retain them. As our workforce grows, so does our opportunity to evolve into an organization that is more reflective of our partners and the communities we serve.
