The program celebrates the outstanding work our associates accomplish every day through social recognition, monetary awards, and service-based honors.  Extraordinary achievements are also recognized through Fortune Brands’s annual Elevate Award, honoring teams globally who have made exceptional contributions. Associates also share in the company’s success through annual bonuses, which reward both company performance and individual achievement.

Fortune Brands Innovations Employee Reviews

Last year, we were proud to launch our first Employer Value Proposition (EVP) at this moment in Fortune Brand’s evolution. Our EVP conveys our aspirations for being a destination employer for great talent. It represents our commitment to ignite innovation and accelerate performance, and it shows how we believe our talent will thrive as we provide incredible opportunities for development and business success.

BEING ERG has been such a meaningful part of my journey at FBIN. I joined the company in 2020 during a time filled with so much uncertainty. When BEING reached out to me I immediately felt seen, supported, and safe. Joining a BEING member call and seeing people who looked like me— and allies who uplifted voices like mine — was incredibly reassuring. ERGs like BEING do vital work, and I’m grateful every day for the community we’ve built. Because of BEING, I’ve formed some of my closest friendships.

Recently, Fortune Brands introduced the employee resource groups. The first one I became aware of was the Women’s ERG. It’s a great commitment on the company’s part showing that they care about us being included.
