Our Benefits

We could tell you about the free breakfast, the drinks in the fridge, and the 30 vacation days. Or that flexible hours and remote work are part of the deal. But honestly? That’s just standard.
Here’s what makes working with us in Frankfurt extra special:

• Work from (almost) anywhere – Take your job with you on a workation and get inspired by new places.
• Time for growth – A career framework to support your professional and personal growth with up to 6 extra days off per year for your development.
• Social Day – One paid day per year to give back: volunteer, support a cause, or attend an environmental event.
• Bike leasing – Stay fit and sustainable. We’ll handle the contract and insurance.
• Pick your perk – Choose the benefit that fits your life best: fitness membership, public transport pass, retirement plan, or a monthly bonus.
• Dog Friendly Office - Bring your furry coworker along. Just make sure they don't steal anyone’s lunch.

Hybrid work is a natural part of how we operate, but we also believe in the power of coming together. That’s why we regularly connect in the office - whenever it makes sense.
And that’s just the beginning. Ask us what else is waiting for you.
