If trust is the rule, there’s no need for rules.

Before we founded INNOQ, we had learned a lot. Unfortunately, that also included how we did not want to work. Therefore, from the very start, our goal was to be the employer for which we always wished we could work. We want colleagues who ask questions and who are able to think for themselves; employees who are curious, eager to learn, cooperative, and tolerant. See for yourself here how we work and what we can offer you. We look forward to getting to know you!

Technology know-how is our superpower, and, thanks to our employees, it’s getting stronger everyday.

What makes us different

Exchange

We work in an organization where there is open and constructive communication, which leads to challenging discussions, and, not infrequently, to contradictions. But it is not about vanity and playing games. We are proud of that

Time management

For us it is the result that counts. If the project permits, each employee can decide how to budget his or her time and whether to work in the office or at home.

Open ears

We provide all “newbies” with a mentor who helps with all the questions that come up in the beginning. And, of course, the management and the team are always ready to lend an ear. And that naturally applies to long-time employees as well. Because, even though we all work as independently as possible, no one is ever left alone at INNOQ.

Trust

Absolute trust in our employees is another thing that is especially important to us at INNOQ. We are happy to do without forms and processes - and in return we demand decisions that are based on sound common sense.

Independence

All of us know which hardware and software lead to the best results. All of us get the computers we want, can order the materials we need.

For everyone

We are convinced that diversity helps us to become a better company. We are looking for people who fit in with us and share our values and aspirations. Here, everyone is tolerated and accepted the way they are. After all, we can not fly the flag of diversity and equal opportunity without accommodating the different needs of our employees. That also includes harmonizing private life and family with work.

Company retreats

Several times a year, everyone at INNOQ attends company events with technical presentations, programming workshops, and discussions of new technical challenges. A nice side effect: Through the regular sharing of knowledge, we all get to know each other better and keep in contact regularly, despite different locations and individual work models.

Never stop learning

All of us are repeatedly discovering new topics about which we can learn something new. We provide everyone with plenty of opportunities to do so at work. After all, it often happens that such knowledge can be applied practically in the next customer project. We also expect our colleagues to share their knowledge. We encourage all our employees to share their knowledge through blog posts, articles in technical journals, in our podcast, or just in conversation with colleagues.

No hierarchies

Of course, there is a management, and there are job titles: Consultants, Senior Consultants, Principal Consultants, and Fellows. But they describe activities, not positions. We do not expect experienced technical consultants to take on a management role. Despite their professional experience, they are still permitted to do programming or - depending on the particular area - to do substantive work in projects in other ways.

Rollen- und Gehaltsmodell bei INNOQ Deutschland

Im Laufe der Jahre haben wir bei INNOQ mit einer Reihe unterschiedlicher Rollen- und Gehaltsmodelle experimentiert. In Deutschland haben wir mittlerweile ein relativ stabile Struktur, die in diesem Beitrag näher beschrieben wird.

Familie und INNOQ

Der Zeit-Artikel „Berufstätige Mütter leiden unter Diskriminierung“ hat mich motiviert, darüber zu bloggen, wie wichtig uns bei INNOQ das Vereinbaren von Privatleben, Familie und Arbeit ist. INNOQ erreicht dies durch inhaltsbezogene Aufgaben, dezentrale Projektorganisation und einer Balance aus Freiräumen, Wertschätzung und Leistungsorientierung.

Ordnung durch minimale Regeln

Wie viele andere Unternehmen dieser Branche auch ist INNOQ in der Boomzeit der Jahrtausendwende entstanden. Mit einigem Frust aus vorangegangenen Tätigkeiten gründeten wir damals mit einigen Gleichgesinnten ein Unternehmen mit dem Anspruch, Dinge anders und natürlich besser zu machen, als wir sie vorher bei unseren Arbeitgebern erleiden mussten. Daraus hat sich mittlerweile ein System entwickelt, das nicht nur die Geschäftsleitung, sondern nahezu alle Mitarbeiter bei INNOQ sehr schätzen – und das Erstaunen, dass uns beim Erklären des Modells häufig entgegenschlägt, war Motivation genug, die wesentlichen Aspekte in diesem Artikel näher zu beschreiben. Sicher passen nicht alle unserer Lehren zu jedem Unternehmen, aber vielleicht können sie Ihnen als Inspiration dienen. Für uns hat es bislang sehr gut funktioniert – nicht mehr, aber auch nicht weniger.
