What does the company’s development look like?
aievas AG was founded in 2003. Since then, we have been growing continuously and above average. Meanwhile the aievas® software is used worldwide on all 6 continents.
What is the company philosophy?
Our philosophy is simple and we try to live it every day. The main contents are:
We know that we live off our customers and act accordingly. Our customers expect timely and accurate order fulfillment, excellent service, and comprehensive care in support of their goals. All our products and services are associated with a high quality standard, which must be proven every day. To this end, every employee should contribute in the best possible way.
We are aware that every employee has different goals and motivations. Therefore, we try to combine the goals of the customers, the employees and the company with each other as far as possible.
We work with people: our dealings are therefore characterized by tolerance and respect while simultaneously demanding and promoting professionalism and quality.
What are the overarching requirements for employees?
The requirements vary depending on the position, but some characteristics distinguish all profiles we are looking for or who work for us: Above-average commitment, taking responsibility for tasks, quick comprehension, ability to learn, flexibility, accuracy and reliability.
How does the training take place?
The induction takes the form of on-the-job training. Experienced colleagues guide new employees. In addition, there are regular special training sessions for specific topics and tasks.
What are the development opportunities?
Careers that are based on title and office size do not exist at our company. With us, employees develop in and with the projects. Only one thing is decisive for this: personal performance. All new employees receive feedback every 3 months, in which the current status and development prospects are outlined. Additional discussions are held annually in which common goals are set for the next year.
Due to the variety of industries, customers and projects, there are always new tasks, requirements and perspectives. This offers a wide range of individual development opportunities.
How is compensation paid?
Compensation is largely linked to the areas for which we are responsible and to personal performance. In principle, the remuneration is based on market rates. We reward sustained above-average performance accordingly.
What are the social benefits?
The cafeteria principle applies to all benefits: employees can define which benefits they would like to take advantage of (company car, pension plan, etc.) and this is implemented as far as possible within the agreed gross annual remuneration.
