Corporate culture
Learn more about our corporate culture and values, our approach to diversity, and about ECE as an award-winning employer. We offer an inspiring work environment that provides a wide range of opportunities to generate and share ideas, with a focus on modern ways of working.
In this context, our collective success is the ultimate goal.
Collaboration
Challenging assignments, mutual respect and appreciation, genuine teamwork, and deep dedication – that’s what working with us is all about.
Our values form the basis of our corporate culture. We interact on a first-name basis, communicate with each other as equals, know what our customers want, and are always searching for new solutions and innovative ways to achieve lasting success. Flexible and connected, our employees can work from anywhere using their laptops and smartphones with access to work files regardless of the time and place. They have access to coworking spaces, different collaboration platforms, and state-of-the-art working methods. We promote an independent and results-driven approach alongside collaboration across teams and departments.
Diversity
We believe that diversity is key to success. Every employee is one of a kind and contributes to our corporate culture and ECE’s success through their unique personality traits. With their wide-ranging abilities and talents, our colleagues’ different points of view help us develop new ways of finding innovative solutions.
This is why we are committed to providing equal opportunities at all departmental and management levels regardless of age, gender and gender identity, nationality, ethnic background, religion, disability, or sexual orientation. An overview of our diversity activities is granted in the ECE Diversity Strategy. The company has signed the “Charta der Vielfalt” (Diversity Charter) as a way of pledging to promote equal opportunities and a work environment free of prejudice at ECE.
Work–life balance
As a family-owned company, it’s extremely important to us that our employees can strike a healthy balance between their careers and the various stages of their lives and their individual interests. Specific benefits such as flexible work schedules and mobile work arrangements, our partnership with pme Familienservice, which offers consultations and placement services for childcare and relatives in need of care, and our in-house gym called Unser Sportplatz are just a few of the ways we help our employees balance their working and private lives.
ECE has been audited, receiving the “berufundfamilie” (career and family) certification from the Hertie Foundation in 2012, and is committed to creating a healthy work–life balance in accordance with our employees’ unique individual needs.
