User experience in the office

The fact that this concept works is the experience of Michael Fleischmann, evopro’s Director of Finance and Human Resources. In 2017, the technology company based in the business park started to radically put user experience at the heart of its office design. “We didn’t go through any books to do this, we started from what kind of working environment we would have wanted ourselves in the past,” he explains. This included, in addition to free time and free lunch, inspiring rooms to feel good in. In addition, the workspaces are adapted to the respective activities: In the design area, groups of four in the open-plan office enable teams to work together on a project, in the software area the focus is on opportunities for retreat, and for meetings there is a creative space with cube-shaped boxes instead of fixed furniture. High-quality technical equipment flanks the functionality of the room. A cooperative working space is also planned in the social space. These optimal working and living conditions bring double benefits: the best possible work results and a high level of employee identification with the company. A win-win situation, because:

“The longer we can keep our employees, the more valuable they are to us.”
