What advice would you give a newcomer at PRODYNA?
Embrace every single opportunity you get!
What do you like about your work?
Probably I like the fact that I don't even think about it as work. It is more of a (learning) experience. Every day is a new challenge, I get to do something different and learn something new. I travel and visit new places, participate in trainings and get certificates. I take part in the wonderful employee events, get to meet and work with colleagues from the various PD branch offices. It is always diverse, challenging, fun and that's exactly why I like it.
Do you like the events at PRODYNA?
I love the PRODYNA events! To me, it feels like they bring colleagues and even the whole company together. Personally, the events always remind me that being a PRODYNA employee means more than just being employed. It means being part of a large family that cares about getting to know each other and spending quality time together.
What is the biggest challenge in your job?
Accepting the fact that I cannot know everything and sometimes mistakes are inevitable (during the learning process).
How do you feel about teamwork at PRODYNA?
Ever since I first walked in the PRODYNA office I was supported in everything I did. Being a junior, I was never left alone and always had someone to turn to. To this day, my colleagues still stand strongly behind me and I can never be thankful enough for having them.
What has been your most exciting project at PRODYNA?
Gebrüder Weiss. It was my first onsite project and I am currently still working on it. It is a huge Liferay DXP Project and I am proud that I can work on it. Working on-site is a different challenge than working remote. Since Gebrüder Weiss was my first on-site project, I will always remember it as such.
What was your best experience at PRODYNA?
Without a doubt, the Christmas party and the recent ski team building weekend for PRODYNA AT & PRODYNA CH in Montafon. The ski event was amazing for any ski-lover and the perfect opportunity to get to know the colleagues bit better, relax and have fun on the slopes together. The Christmas party, on the other hand, was spectacular but one must experience it on its own to understand why.
What is special for you in a male-dominated business?
The fact that I can do, what I have always wanted to do, without any gender-prejudice.
When you think about PRODYNA, what is the first thing that comes to your mind?
Professional & Dynamic!
How do you spend your lunch break?
Together with my colleagues, usually eating a salad.
How is the work in a project?
Challenging, dynamic and diverse. One is expected to be flexible and adjust fast. But, that's also the nice thing about it, as it is never monotone. It is perfect for anyone who loves to travel, work closely with customers and is willing to continue learning.
What attracted you to the position at PRODYNA?
Well, several aspects attracted me to the position at PRODYNA: the projects, the trainings and certificates, the employee events and the honesty and openness I could sense from the colleagues during my job interview.
