Learning culture

It’s all about your growth. emnify puts a lot of effort into setting up different learning opportunities for everyone. We are currently focusing on leadership coaching with our partner Gallup with their strengthsfinder approach. We enable leaders to identify their strengths to continue their learning journey. We offer emerging leaders with our partner Junto to connect with other leaders from similar companies to learn together and grow a network. On top of that our employees benefit from lunch & learn sessions to learn and understand different parts of the business better and leverage the different skills from each other.

Celebrate success together

We empower leaders to spend some quality time with their teams and get together for dinners, workshops, or other fun activities. Building relationships in your team and beyond is key to form and maintain a high‑performance culture that ensures a successful and competitive business. We want work to be fun and achieve challenging goals together. Beyond the quarterly events we also have company events like summer or christmas parties where everyone gets together to ensure people focused culture.

Flexible working approach

As a global company, our colleagues work around the world and in different time zones. Flexibility is key to us. emnify has chosen the hybrid approach to focus on growing their existing hubs further. Whereas our GTM organization in the US is completely remote because there is no hub for them yet. We offer professional relocation services, employer of record and remote working policy. We know great talents are spread around the world or have their families in different countries. We are not a remote culture. We believe driving transformation and embracing customer centricity can be done best in our hybrid working environment where we can learn and grow together.
