Our talented teams are the foundation of what we do
Skilled and committed employees are the foundation of United Internet's lasting success. We therefore actively promote diversity, inclusion, and equal opportunities as well as continuing education and work-life balance. We believe that teams reflecting society's full diversity create the best environment for creativity and productivity.
- Being fair and attractive as an employer helps us attract great talent and build long-term relationships with our team members. United Internet trains emerging professionals and invests in an open and transparent workplace built on shared values. This gives young people a strong foundation for successful careers.
- One of our priorities is recognizing and promoting the professional competencies and individual strengths of our employees and managers. We do this by offering comprehensive professional development programs and personalized mentoring and coaching.
- Balancing family and career can be a challenge. Through our cooperation with the external "pme Family Service," we support our employees with childcare, care of relatives, as well as personal emergency situations.
- We prioritize our employees' health and wellbeing through comprehensive workplace health management. Our programs include occupational medicine and first aid, movement and ergonomics, as well as stress prevention and crisis counseling. We also offer sports and fitness courses, lectures about physical and mental health topics, and other initiatives like bicycle leasing through JobRad®.
- "United in Diversity" – Under this motto, we actively promote and embrace diversity. Through numerous initiatives and programs, we work together to unlock diversity's potential, challenge biases, and celebrate our differences. This commitment is reflected in our diversity mission statement, which strengthens different stakeholder voices and supports inclusivity throughout the company.
- By signing the Charter of Diversity, we formalized our commitment to promoting and practicing workplace diversity.
- Regular employee surveys help us understand how our people feel about their work and what matters most to them. This feedback enables us to identify areas for improvement and take meaningful action to enhance our employees' experience. We also maintain open feedback systems so employees can share ideas whenever they have them.
- United Internet has established clear procedures for addressing workplace concerns, including confidential electronic reporting, compliance managers, and trusted advisors. These resources are designed to be easily accessible, and we actively encourage employees to raise issues early through helpful information and support.
