Culture & Values

Culture and Values

Fundamental corporate values – customer success, innovation, excellence, integrity, personal responsibility – define who we are and help us thrive as a company. They provide a framework for day-to-day actions inside and outside of LSI, and form the basis of our culture.

We strive for best-in-class results in all of our endeavors and believe that:

Customer success enables our customers to win in their markets.
Market leadership is derived from continuous innovation in our products and disciplines.
We will achieve our greatest success if we all take responsibility for our actions.

Diversity

As an equal opportunity employer, LSI believes employees should work and achieve their full potential in an environment free from discrimination based on race, color, gender, religion, age, national or ethnic origin, disability, or any other criteria.

Our commitment to diversity is a cornerstone in our drive for excellence throughout our worldwide operations. We value the diversity and varied perspectives that our employees bring to the workplace. By cultivating a diverse and inclusive work environment in a global marketplace, we strengthen the LSI position as a technology leader.

Philanthropy & Community

As a global industry leader, LSI understands its social responsibility and is committed to serving and enhancing the communities in which our employees live and work. Our Philanthropy and Community Enhancement (PACE) program facilitates this commitment through contributions, volunteerism and community partnerships.

Since learning begins in the earliest years, our philanthropy program starts with a focus on education; specifically kindergarten through high school (K-12), math and science, in the United States, and the equivalent in other countries worldwide. LSI has a terrific opportunity to make a substantial impact in this area, especially in math and science, which is the key to the future of our industry.

We also encourage our employees to get involved by volunteering in their communities. After all, we live here too. Together we can make huge strides in the community through good citizenship.
