????Employees: 22,000

????Each year, the biotech crop giant celebrates its employees with a company-wide event called the “Sustainable Yield Pledge Awards.” From helping bring clean drinking water to a village or collaborating with farmers and schools to bring science, math and technology into classrooms in rural communities, the awards recognize top projects from around the world that represent the company’s commitment to sustainability in action. One of the finalists this year was a team in Cama?ari, Brazil, who helped improve lives in their community by up-cycling materials that they could no longer use. The awards build on the basis of the company’s culture: the eight-point statement of values known as the Monsanto Pledge, which includes integrity, dialogue and transparency among its tenets. Employees at the company liken the Pledge Awards to the Oscars of Monsanto, and it represents the company’s highest honor. Each year, award winners receive a trophy and a $10,000 grant to donate to a non-profit organization of the team’s choosing.
