Careers that Change Lives
Our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are built on shared interests and affinities that create a support fabric to retain, develop, and engage employees locally. We support employee resource groups focused on various areas such as gender, ethnicity, age, faith, sexual orientation, military service, and other shared affinities. ERGs enhance the professional growth, development, and engagement of Medtronic employees and support the Mission, goals, and values of the company. The grassroots nature of ERGs lays the groundwork for the Medtronic global inclusion, diversity, and equity (ID&E) strategy.
