    Since Gore's early years, plant parties and holiday celebrations have contributed to a sense of camaraderie at work, helping us to deliver on founder Bill Gore's objective of “making money and having fun doing so.” This includes plenty of Halloween fun, dating back to a costume parade at our first plant in 1960. Associates keep the tradition alive today with costume contests, trunk-or-treat events and other seasonal festivities. Enjoy a snapshot from one of this year's events and a favorite from our archives. The latter shows two Associates in 1960 dressed as a an early Gore electronic cable and the tape-wrapper machine that would have produced it. #LifeAtGore #CompanyCulture #Halloween 🎃

    At Gore, we believe in celebrating our successes and having fun together. This includes a recent 80s-themed party to mark the 40th anniversary of our Barksdale plant in Delaware. From neon sweaters to side ponytails and a “Where’s Waldo” sighting, the festivities hearkened back to Barksdale’s early days. Once a manufacturing facility, the plant is now home to our Capabilities Center and is our “front door” to Gore. It is a space to showcase our incredible and passionate Associates, demonstrate our innovative technologies and inspire collaborative partnerships. During the celebration, Gore family member and Associate Betty Snyder took us through the history of Barksdale, while CEO Bret Snyder joined in the festivities. Associates also shared their favorite memories on a whiteboard (captured in the photos below). #TogetherImprovingLife #LifeAtGore #TotallyRad

Great presentations and demonstrations. Awesome facilities! We even did some product testing in the Rain Room. Our clothes were bone dry under those Gore slicker suits! Can’t wait for our next Experiential Friday!💙❤️🦬

    October marks Disability Awareness Month, a time to celebrate the significant accomplishments of people with disabilities and reinforce the importance of inclusive and accessible environments where everyone can fully engage and contribute. Our SWAG diversity network (Strong Working Abilities Across Gore) plays a critical role in fostering inclusivity and awareness. This includes connecting Associates with valuable educational and support resources and hosting engaging information sessions, like a recent neurodiversity panel discussion in collaboration with Gore’s Latin America DE&I network. Pictured below, SWAG network members participate in the 2024 Disability:IN conference, a major event connecting disability advocates, accessibility professionals and corporate leaders from around the world to share insights and strategies for inclusive environments in business. Thank you to the many passionate Associates who help drive awareness and progress. #TogetherImprovingLife #LifeAtGore #DisabilityAwarenessMonth #DEI #Neurodiversity
