Culture

Harnessing the power of science

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) promotes a vibrant culture of diversity through teamwork and collaboration that challenges employees to apply their skills in ways that contribute to the overall goals of the team and to the larger national goals of the Laboratory. We strive to ensure that all activities meet the highest standards in workforce enrichment, safety, security, fiscal accountability and environmental responsibility.

Our long-standing culture of innovation, excellence, diversity and team science produces accomplishments in predictive science using computer simulations, in the design and construction of the world's largest laser for fusion experiments, and in scientific discoveries that are shedding light on fundamental mysteries of the universe. As a result, our employees have received the highest awards in industry and academia and have been awarded a number of patents in the fields of engineering and science discovery.

 

Although we work hard, we play hard too!

We know how to have fun at work. Livermore Laboratory Employee Services Association (LLESA) provides seasonal farmers markets, music events, an annual vehicle show and on-site employee shopping events to name a few. The LLESA networking groups provide employees an opportunity to share common interests around exercise, education, community service and social activities. LLESA also offers local Northern California discounts for employees and their families.
