We're a team of only 30 employees – not the typical thyssenkrupp company size. So even though we are part of the large, internationally operating group of companies thyssenkrupp AG, we could easily be mistaken as a start-up in terms of size.
This rare combination means that working with us combines the best of two worlds:
We want to help our employees manage professional life and private life with ease. Therefore, everyone can decide freely whether they want to come to the office, work from home, or, if need be, even do some work from somewhere on the road. On average, most colleagues are in the office about 2–3 days per week over a six‑month period.
Everybody should be able to decide freely at what time they would like to work. To us, it makes no difference whether you start at 6 a.m. and finish early, or start at 11 a.m. but stay late - as long as the workload that was agreed upon can get done, we support you in designing your own flexible working schedule.
Depending on certain job‑related requirements, employees may work remotely from abroad for up to 20 working days per year. Given the approval from your team leader, and a prior check confirming that there are no potential risks (e.g., regarding tax regulations, social security, etc.), nothing stops you from having a little 'workation'.
We encourage continuous growth in personal and professional competences. There is a wide range of education and training programms offered by the 'thyssenkrupp Academy', but also by external providers, that employees can choose from. This will give anyone the opportunity to discover new fields of work, or to tap into potential they never imagined they had.
thyssenkrupp means pleasant working environments and attractive benefits. We offer wages in line with collective agreements, 30 days of annual leave, employee discounts, a company pension scheme, and many more.
To support the restaurants in our local area, and to make sure our employees don't go hungry, we subsidise each lunch break with an amount of 3,10€.
Parking spaces are pretty difficult to find in most urban areas. You'll be saved the trouble of looking for one each and every morning, as we are happy to offer parking spots in our underground garage free of charge. This goes for cars as well as for bikes, scooters, e-bikes, etc.
We offer you the opportunity to lease a bicycle of your choice through the provider ‘mein-dienstrad.’ This allows you to save on the purchase of your bike while enjoying comprehensive protection through insurance and service.
If you own an electric car, we've got you covered: We offer the possibility to charge your car at the charging point in our underground carpark at a very reasonable price.
We foster a speak-up culture and take feedback seriously. We want to listen and learn – preferably in direct contact. But if you prefer to give feedback online, that’s fine too, because thyssenkrupp encourages everyone to use review sites such as Kununu or Glassdoor. With honest feedback from our candidates and employees we can gauge how you perceive thyssenkrupp and how we can improve. And sometimes we can just be proud – thanks to your reviews.
At thyssenkrupp we are convinced that differences make us successful. That’s why we welcome all applications – regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion or worldview, physical ability, age, sexual orientation and identity. We value and promote diversity and exploit the potential it offers. People from 134 nations currently work for the thyssenkrupp Group. We also take a strong stance against discrimination – and for integration. We have been a PROUTEMPLOYER since 2016 and are committed to maintaining a working environment that is open, tolerant and constructive for everyone.
... makes the dream work. We try our best to provide a collaborative and supportive work environment built on mutual trust and respect. Therefore, team events such as beer-garden nights, summer and Christmas parties, Oktoberfest outings, and sporting events on a regular basis are pretty much non-negotiable.
Contribute to the shaping of our company with your experience and personality!
The key to the success of our company is the team here at thyssenkrupp Transrapid / TechCenter Control Technology: 30 times passion and drive, 30 times wanting-to-tackle-the-issue mentality, but also 30 individuals from different backgrounds with their own story. We would not be who we are if it wasn't for them, so we will gladly let their stories speak for themselves. They share with us what their tasks are, what a normal working day is like, and what it means to be part of the team at TechCenter Control Technology.
