OUR WORKING ENVIRONMENT

We are one big family – and that’s not just a claim, it is a philosophy we live by in our day-to-day work. We have an open-door policy and are all on first-name terms. Despite the size of the company, which now has more than 1,000 employees internationally, new hires feel like they are part of the team from day one. One factor in this is our start-up mentality, which we have retained despite our growth and our success. A close connection between co-workers and swift decision-making channels form the basis of our work at CHG-MERIDIAN. 

The success of the CHG-MERIDIAN team is evident in the fact that we are now present in 25 countries worldwide. Our goal is long-term, sustainable success for our customers, and sustainability and stability are also important to us as an employer. Unsurprisingly, our employees around the world value CHG-MERIDIAN as a secure, fair, and robust employer. 

Our commitment to mutual respect, dependability, and transparency shapes the way we think and act. CHG-MERIDIAN fosters a culture of openness and transparency within which every employee is not only able to participate but is actively encouraged to do so – and which allows constructive criticism as a matter of course. Our success is built on team spirit and the dependability of our staff, and we reward these accordingly. Employees with ambition will find that many doors are open to them.

CHG-MERIDIAN places a high value on continuing professional development and improvement. With this in mind, we conducted our first international survey of the CHG-MERIDIAN Group workforce in 2018. The objective was to get a feel for the mood, to canvas opinions, both positive and negative, and to identify potential for improvement. We entered into a dialog with our employees in order to drive forward the development of our company on the basis of the survey’s findings, among other things. Many of our employees – the participation rate was very high at 82 percent – took the opportunity to get involved and have their say on eight topics. We were particularly delighted to learn that 96 percent of our employees enjoy working for us. To ensure that this remains the case, every employee is invited to take an active role in shaping our future tasks.

As a family-friendly company we support parents at CHG-MERIDIAN with flexible working arrangements. Most of our employees have families of their own so parents feel understood and supported.  

Our corporate values and corporate culture are very important to us. But even more important is that we live and work by them. We asked our colleagues how they experience them in their day-to-day work. Read for yourself what makes CHG-MERIDIAN such a great employer.
