We've got your back with regular training, coaching, and mentoring to boost your know-how and powers, ensuring you stay employable for the long run.

Speaking of recruitment, we go all out to get the best minds on board, and once they're here, we're all about helping them soar. Our job descriptions and interview panels are inclusive. We're out to tackle any biases and give every candidate a warm welcome.

United for progress

Our Employee Resource Groups are the real champions here! They're like the turbo boosters propelling us toward a more inclusive and impactful culture. These champions kickstart the journey by giving a big shout-out to our underrepresented groups – and it's not just about gender; it's about Race, Ethnicity, National Identity (REN), LGBTQ+, Disability, and Generations. 

Our ERGs are like the coolest hangout spots where people get to mingle with their buddies and allies. They're all about creating safe havens where our people can speak their minds, air their thoughts, and cook up some brilliant solutions.

They're the real movers and shakers, always coming up with awesome stuff. Think mind-blowing initiatives and crazy fun events that get everyone talking. 

No Gender Pay Gap

We're all in for gender pay fairness. We'll keep checking and fixing any pay gaps between genders. Everyone gets fair pay for their skills, experience, and hard work, no matter who they are.

Being a force for good

We're on a mission to make a positive impact. We're all about creating value, not just for today, but for generations down the road. We're champions of a fairer, more equal society. Our people and their families mean the world to us, which is why we make sure they enjoy a decent standard of living. That's why we pay a living wage – a wage that covers the essentials like health, food, housing, and education. It's all about ensuring our team and their loved ones thrive.

Connection and balance

We believe that the best connections are made when people come together.

We also understand the need for flexibility. That is why we support a work model that helps you perform at your best. While we value autonomy, we also know that great ideas thrive when we come together.

We ask our teams to be on site at least 60% of the time depending on the role, creating space for collaboration, creativity, and shared momentum. Whether you're solving problems in a meeting room or catching up with colleagues over coffee, these moments of connection drive innovation and build stronger teams.

Because our culture is about working better, together.

Together with our customers

We believe in living our values together with our customers. This means truly getting their needs and challenges. Our work setup lets you forge valuable connections with both your co-workers and clients. Staying close to our team and clients helps us navigate the business and deliver exceptional experiences!

How it works

We're flexible, but some roles need you on-site: Sales reps, shopfloor-, lab-, and factory workers, we've got your back. We trust our people to make the best calls through ongoing chats with managers, colleagues, and teams. Your productivity matters most, so we empower your choices to boost it.
