Dear former employee,
Thank you for taking the time to provide such comprehensive feedback, which we take very seriously and therefore appreciate you taking the time and effort to do so.
We are especially happy that you perceived the team spirit and the working environment as consistently positive when working with us. We emphasize creating an inclusive workplace where everyone feels welcome and appreciated and value your positive experience!
Thank you also for pointing out things that we can improve on, as we continuously want to get better.
Our Vimcar team has 34 nationalities today and we want everyone to feel they belong. That's why we have already taken action to ensure that English is used consistently as the official company language through our recently announced workplace policy. These include, among other things, that:
- Documentation which is accessible to the whole company is in English
- Meetings are in English if at least one joiner is not natively speaking German
- At company events we are using English as default to lower the barrier for non-German speakers to join the conversations
- For our colleagues who doesn't feel so confident in English yet, we will continue to offer free English language courses
Regarding your feedback about remote working options: We have recognized that more flexibility is important and therefore already implemented new guidelines, which include among other things:
- Hybrid working: we encourage our employees to find their own optimal (=most productive) split between office and WFH
- Option to work remotely from outside of Germany for 8 weeks per year
If you have further questions about these topics, please feel free to reach out to us at careers@vimcar.com. We will be happy to provide you with more information!
We wish you all the best for your professional and personal career.
Best regards,
Vimcar HR Team
