FOSTERING A GREAT CULTURE.
Our Core Values.
OPENNESS.
We are excited by change and open to new opportunities. We learn from our mistakes in order to create our future. We take our colleagues' ideas seriously, because every little impulse can turn into something great.
TRANSPARENCY.
We do not embellish, but point out contradictions constructively. We act with integrity and talk to each other. This is the only way to create trust and bring our visions onto the streets.
RESPONSIBILITY.
We take consistent decisions and commit to them personally. This allows us to work freely and more effectively. By taking responsibility for our own projects, we can develop ourselves further personally.
TRUST.
We trust and rely on each other. We are a team that sticks together and only grows together. This is essential if we are to act swiftly and achieve our goals which take us further.
APPRECIATION.
We reflect on our actions and respect each other. Clarity, feedback and celebrating each other's success are crucial for a positive working atmosphere. Every individual makes a difference.
Diversity.
Diversity – in every form – is one of the most important success factors for us. And we know that passion knows no differences, so we encourage diversity in all our teams. If you want to set standards in shaping the sustainable and individual mobility of the future, you also have to go ahead with the corporate culture.
AGE & EXPERIENCE.
In order to benefit from the strengths and experiences of employees of different ages, we have introduced a variety of programmes for flexible and mobile working.
GENDER.
To us, equal opportunities for everyone are not an empty promise, but a reality we live by. We know that the varied and mutually complementary perspectives and approaches of each individual make us strong enough to face our challenges.
PHYSICAL & MENTAL ABILITIES.
By creating optimal, barrier-free working conditions we ensure that all of our colleagues, whether they have a disability or not, feel comfortable and empowered to shape creative processes from a variety of different perspectives.
SEXUAL ORIENTATION & IDENTITY.
For us, diversity means living a culture that is based on appreciation and respect, so that people of all origins can contribute and develop with their personality and identity. We ensure a positive, tolerant and open work environment in which everyone is welcome regardless of their sexual identity.
