With the last month of summer upon us, we’d like to take a moment to celebrate our partnership with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) and show our appreciation to everyone who’s helped support it throughout the business! 🍋 For more than a decade, we’ve proudly worked with Alex’s in support of their mission to find a cure for childhood cancer. Through employee donations, local lemonade stands, company events, volunteer efforts, and other unique methods, we have been working all summer to “Power the Cure”. We are excited to finish strong this summer and continue to support ALSF in the future. Learn more about our partnership here!
We added some new photos to Glassdoor showcasing our 2024 Nitro Create event. Create is an annual event at POWER where members of our Business Technology department gather from around the world to unite at our HQ and tackle projects living on the cutting edge of the tech space. The result? Nitro - a company-wide tech platform as nimble and powerful as the people who built it. Get your inside look and check out some of the highlights here.
Culture is about building community. What creates a workplace community is shared experiences that foster in-person connection. At our company, we dedicate over two percent of top-line revenue towards 250-plus yearly touchpoints of employee engagement. Leadership could wave the flag and re-route that spending elsewhere, but we don’t. These experiences are how employees grow as individuals, leaders, and professionals.” - POWER COO, Tim Wenhold Take a look at the strategies these people-first businesses are using to position themselves for a bright future.

Want the inside scoop on what makes POWER an award-winning workplace? Here are some impactful quotes from our community that highlight their career experiences at POWER!
For many years now, POWER has been working with different nonprofits to create nationwide positive change. In recent years POWER has taken this idea to the next level, offering more opportunities for employees to have a voice in our charitable efforts. This year we committed to a $500,000 partnership with DonorsChoose, an education nonprofit to help fund public schools and teachers in need. This partnership allowed us to choose the schools, teachers, and projects that we’d support. We decided to take an unique approach that gave all of our employees an opportunity to choose where a portion of these funds would go. This was one of our most involved partnerships to date - click the link to get the full details of our partnership and how our POWER people had the choice to “choose for good”!
