Work environment

ONBOARDING

We want new employees to quickly fit in, feel at home, and get the important information they need. That’s why – in addition to customary onboarding events – we offer new colleagues digital onboarding support, regular feedback meetings, and a personal buddy.

working abroad

Would you like to broaden your horizons and gain experience abroad? At Drees & Sommer, the world is your oyster – thanks to our many international locations.

mobile working

For many types of work, flexibility in the choice of workplace is normal. This flexibility is designed to suit people’s different circumstances. Our mobile working guideline provides the framework for this – based on our approach of trust and responsibility.

modern workplaces

From height-adjustable desks to IT equipment: We provide you with what you need to work efficiently and stay healthy – and feel right at home at the same time.

State-of-the-art tools and technologies

As you would expect from an innovation leader, we work extensively with digital project management tools such as CAFM (Computer Aided Facility Management), BIM (Building Information Modeling) and our existing corporate IT infrastructure. We also test and evaluate the latest (AI) tools.

part-time work

At Dreso we have a range of part-time work models, so you can choose the one that best suits your needs and circumstances.

Trust-based working hours

A full-time work contract provides for a 40-hour week. Our trust-based working hours policy gives you the opportunity to arrange your working hours flexibly – by agreement with your manager and within the legal framework.

Employee referral program

Your personal network can pay dividends with our employee referral program. If you recommend a contact for a job vacancy at Drees & Sommer and that person is hired as a result of your referral, you will receive a bonus payment as a thank you.

Development

DREES & SOMMER ACADEMY

Our in-house Academy is an essential part of our employee development strategy. External trainers, coaches – and sometimes Dresos themselves – share their knowledge in e-learning modules, courses and other formats. Take the opportunity to develop both professionally and personally.

Personal development plan

At Dreso, you follow a defined development path. Whether you are aiming to take on management responsibility or would prefer to deepen your expertise in a specific field – at Dreso you can shape a career that suits your strengths and preferences.

Support for study programs

We promote part-time courses of study that combine theory and practice. Drees & Sommer pays part of the costs and supports you as best as it can.

Employee survey

It’s not just our employees who are constantly developing – Dreso is too. That is why we conduct regular employee surveys and implement the necessary measures based on the results.

Team workshops and events

We are committed to delivering peak performance by working together and enjoying what we do. That’s why we promote interaction and solidarity with a range of team-building and networking events.

Health and well-being

EGYM Wellpass Corporate Fitness

Unlimited swimming, gym, climbing, yoga – or maybe something completely different? With Dreso, you can have it all. We subsidize EGYM Wellpass membership to promote physical activity – and you use the app or work out on site, on business trips or on vacation.

Health bonus

It’s easier to stay fit and healthy if you exercise regularly. That’s why we reward employees who regularly engage in sports activities with a health bonus – whether they train in a club or in the gym.

Movement activities

Exercise clears your head and ensures that you stay healthy in the long term. That’s why we provide various sports and digital health offerings, such as yoga and the ‘active break’.

Regular health checks

We want to avoid health problems that can arise from extensive screen work or sitting for long periods. To ensure prevention and early detection, we offer employees a regular check-up through our occupational health care program.

Ergonomic workstations

Health and safety in the workplace are important to us. That’s why we offer our employees ergonomically equipped workplaces – with curved screens, height-adjustable desks and adjustable office chairs.

Food and drinks

All our regional offices have fully equipped kitchens – and fresh fruit available every day. Many offices also have vending machines with fresh, ready-to-eat meals and snack bars. Whether you prefer tea, coffee or cocoa, you can help yourself to a large selection of hot drinks free of charge.

External employee consulting

If you need to, you can contact external experts for professional or personal advice. The service is free of charge – and anonymous, if you wish.

Fringe benefits

Bonuses and special leave

We express our thanks to employees with a range of bonuses or by granting special leave. We also allow leave for special occasions such as weddings and Big Birthdays.

Childcare subsidy

We want to improve work-family balance. That’s why Drees & Sommer contributes to the external costs of caring for your non-school-age children.

December 24 and 31 off work

Rest breaks are important. That’s why we give you time to catch your breath at the end of the year. You don’t need to take vacation days to have Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve off.

Financial security

In addition to remuneration at the going market rate, we offer attractive fringe benefits. For example, we support employees with special arrangements to ensure financial security in old age or in the event of occupational disability.

Special offers for employees

All employees – including students and trainees – have access to numerous discount offers from many well-known companies via the ‘Corporate Benefits’ portal. We also offer Dresos the opportunity to lease the latest digital devices.

Mobility

Job bike leasing

Do you want exercise and contribute to climate protection at the same time? Then take advantage of our job bike leasing subsidy and switch to sustainable mobility in both your professional and private life. In addition, Drees & Sommer gives you the opportunity to lease a second bike for your partner.

Public transport subsidy

Dresos who protect the environment by commuting on public transport receive a public transport subsidy. This can be used to offset your monthly, annual or nationwide pass, which you can also use for private trips.

Company cars

Drees & Sommer promotes sustainable mobility. Employees entitled to a company car benefit if they opt for a lower-emission vehicle.

*Please note that benefits vary depending on location, job level and amenities, and that they only apply to majority holdings (greater than 50 percent), and not to startups.
