Employee Referral Program

There is no better endorsement of the benefits of the Micron experience than a recommendation from someone you know. That is why Micron created an online referral program through which current employees can share job openings with colleagues and friends. Employees receive custom URLs to share, and they earn rewards when positions are filled. Forty-two percent of employees have participated in the program — and now, 22% of all external hires originate with a referral.

During the past year, we have increased investment in programs to amplify employee engagement and retention. Employees who are engaged at work tend to thrive professionally, and our performance is better as a result.

For example, responses to insights gained through employee engagement surveys were once handled at the corporate level. But this level of oversight often meant that changes were slow to take effect. A new program, Engage!, helps increase engagement between leaders and their teams by together reviewing, discussing and acting on the results of a biannual survey. Engage! is more than just a survey; it is designed to trigger regular conversations about engagement within teams, with the survey creating accountability and helping to measure progress. Survey questions prompt employees to indicate their level of agreement with statements like “My supervisor provides timely and meaningful recognition” and “At work, I am respected for who I am.” Participation rate in the July 2018 Engage! survey was 93%, and favorability ratings have increased since the survey was first conducted. We have set a goal of reaching at least 60% agreement with the statement “I find Micron’s culture to be personally engaging and motivating.”
