Great Place To Work® recently celebrated PHOTONIC as one of Austria‘s best employers at the „For All Stars Night“ event.

What makes an ordinary employer a “Best Place to Work”? Mutual trust, credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and team spirit. In the course of an anonymous employee survey, PHOTONIC scored particularly high approval rates in all these points, thus securing a Best Workplaces™ 2024 Austria award. At the “For All Stars Night” event in Vienna, the optical and lighting technology specialist was ranked among the top three employers. The company received a 100% approval from its staff in statements such as: “I am proud to tell others that I work here”. Of those questioned, 93% said that their work was more than a “job” for them.

For PHOTONIC Managing Director Stefan Zotter, such feedback represents a particular proof of trust. Moreover, it constitutes an acknowledgement that the company takes everyone’s needs and requests seriously, and that it goes to great lengths to fulfil them. He sincerely thanked them at the award ceremony, which he attended together with Sales Manager Annette Stampfer, Development Manager Gerold Aschinger and Quality Manager Wolfgang Hanser: “I am very pleased that our employees describe their work as meaningful and are proud of their company. The mere fact that all of them participated in the survey shows how much each and every one of them feels attached to PHOTONIC”. Such exceptional team spirit is based on the great amount of free space given to employees: “What we receive in  return is tremendous solidarity and their full focus and commitment for our customers and their projects”, says Zotter.
