This works well in the company

In the context of my Bachelor Thesis I had the pleasure to work together with the Osterwalder AG. The cooperation was very interesting and profitable for me.

This could be improved

Block times should be abolished - more flexibility for employees.

Thank you very much for the evaluation. We would be pleased if we could help further and congratulate you once again on your successful completion! The lecture was really very exciting. Concerning block times we take care to keep them as low as possible, Friday afternoon for example there is no block time at all, so that nothing stands in the way of a long weekend. In addition, it is of course also possible to react flexibly to needs in consultation with the team.

This works well in the company

The Osterwalder AG is developing very well, the processes are lived and further developed. There is a lot of development going on here and the most modern technology can be found on the machines. The employees are motivated and committed. You have 5 weeks vacation per year and the block times are optimal. The management communicates once a month about the course of business and other internal topics which I think is very good.

This could be improved

-Infrastructure (buildings) The building could be renovated to make the workplace even more attractive. -IT infrastructure Make means of communication consistent, renew telephony and organize internal trainings for the used programs

Dear employee We are very pleased with the positive feedback regarding processes, technology, motivation, social benefits and communication. You emphasize the motivated and committed Osterwalder team, which we can only emphasize. Therefore, at this point a thank you to you, because only through all of you we can show such a strong team. We are aware that unfortunately we do not have the newest building. Some small renovation works could already be carried out. If you have another explicit idea, I invite you to share it with us. I am happy to announce that in the meantime the telephone system has been renewed. An internal training concept also for program trainings is in work, thanks for your input.
