EMPLOYEE QUOTES

"It's rare to find a global company where you feel like you can really make a difference. But you can here. And if you perform, you will be rewarded. Belden believes in promoting from within. I see a career path for myself, and feel encouraged every day to put my best foot forward. I feel like I have great opportunities to develop all my skill sets and to work with others throughout the organization on important initiatives."

Hilton Diamond
Manager of Financial Planning & Analysis
Belden Americas
Richmond, Indiana

"The thing that most attracted me to Belden was where it is headed. I wasn't interested in joining a cable company. But I was very interested in a global company with a strong brand, great potential and management that was prepared to take the business to another level."

"Here you get the opportunity to do more, learn more and develop much, much quicker. I learned more in my first seven months at Belden than I'd learn in seven years in my previous job."

Paul Turner
Vice President, Sales and Marketing
Belden Europe, Middle East & Africa
Manchester, United Kingdom

"I have opportunities to get hands-on experience and expand my knowledge in a variety of areas. There isn't a strict hierarchy here, even in the corporate office. We have a relaxed working environment where everyone helps and supports each other.

Sandra Chen
Financial Analyst, Belden Inc.
St. Louis, Missouri

"I used to work for the company that had been voted the best place to work in The Netherlands, and I was very satisfied where I was. But the more I heard about the great things happening at Belden, the more I knew it was for me."

"Belden is a great company to work for if you want to be part of a company that has a clear strategy, and that is rapidly moving forward in carrying it out and that provides positive leadership support every step of the way."

"At Belden, you're not just a number. We're big enough to have lots of opportunities for growth, but small enough to make a difference."

Roel Vestjens
Director of Marketing, Belden EMEA
Belden Europe, Middle East & Africa
Venlo, The Netherlands

"Part of what attracted me to Belden was the transformation taking place here and the opportunities that creates for employees. Here, I wouldn't just be executing a process. I'd also play a role in creating that process. How do we look at product development globally? How do we fully leverage our assets? How do we look at potential acquisitions? To participate in discussions like these and help form a new, dynamic Belden that is very exciting to me."

"There's a willingness here to take risks on people here because we have a need for talent. It's a mindset that encourages you to take on new things and demonstrate what you can do. A talent management system is being put in place to aggressively find the people in the company who are performing and then groom them and grow them."

Louis Pace
Vice President of Business Development
Corporate Headquarters
St. Louis, Missouri

"I like the working atmosphere here. The employees around me all have respect for each other. I feel like I'm also respected and valued as a member of the Belden family."

Fan Cheung
Accountant
Belden Americas
Richmond, Indiana

"Two equally important things attracted me to Belden. First, it was the quality of the leadership and, specifically, the CEO. The second most important was the opportunity to have significant impact on the company. Since joining, I've been pleasantly surprised by the overall sincerity and quality of the people at the organization and the unusual strength of the brand name."

"The people who choose Belden are all high-energy people. They're also nice, humble and down-to-earth people who are highly analytical and highly driven."

"There are 10,000 global companies, most of which don't appeal to me. What attracted me to Belden was this company's sincere focus on attracting and developing talent, from the top down."

"As our CEO has said, somebody took a chance on each leader here at some point in our career. And now it's our role to take chances on highly talented people who perhaps don't have a great deal of experience and give them the opportunity to grow."
