- About Siemens
Employing roughly 420,800 people worldwide, Siemens is a German engineering company, with its headquarters based in Munich, Berlin and Erlangen.
Being the biggest of its kind in all of Europe, the company now consists of three different sectors in total, each with their own sub divisions: The energy sector, ran by Michael Süβ, the healthcare sector, ran by Hermann Requardt, and finally the industry sector, ran by Siegfried Russwurm.
However, whilst the company may have a fairly good reputation on the whole, Siemens was the focal point in an investigation concerning bribery, forcing them to pay 1.34 billion dollars; in the May of 2007, two previous executives of the company were found guilty of bribing others to help win contracts with Enel, spending a total of around 6 million dollars for the cause.
The contracts were for supplying natural gas turbines, and were worth approximately 450 million dollars. Siemens were fined 38 million dollars in total, and the case has left a negative impact upon their popularity amongst both other companies and consumers throughout the world.
Perhaps in a way to fight back against the bad impact this drama created, Siemens have created a foundation, known as the Siemens Foundation, to which it donates money to be used to reward Advanced Placement teachers and students.
The primary agenda of the Siemens Foundation is the Siemens Westinghouse Competition, to which it donates scholarships worth up to almost 2 million dollars each year.
