"We are Family"

When I joined Animas Canada as the Marketing Manager back in February of 2007, I had no idea what an amazing adventure it was going to be. Or that I would find a place that feels like home, and colleagues that feel like family

Coming from an entrepreneurial background as an inspirational speaker and founder of an online community for people with diabetes, I had no idea what to expect in a corporate environment in a highly regulated industry. But I did know two things: I liked and respected my boss and colleagues, and I knew I could do more “good” in the world with the backing of a large company than I could ever do on my own. So I made the leap!

Being at Animas, the greatest blessings by far have been the opportunity to do meaningful work that makes a difference in people’s lives, and to work with a team of people who care deeply and passionately about what we do and the people we serve. Many of us live with Type I ourselves, so our bond is an instant and natural one. But it’s more than that: every single person in this company knows that we are a part of something special and rare.

What we do is never “just a job”. No matter what someone’s role is, we each get great joy from knowing that we’ve given our little piece toward helping someone on their diabetes journey.
