Searching for the right place to work is always a challenge. Based on recommendations from friends and/or your own experience, you generally end up with a handful of companies worth sending your speculative application to. Then there are the job vacancies in the relevant media, in which a brief précis of job requirements and perhaps the benefits from the perspective of the employer are described. But is all of this really enough information to accurately guide the jobseeker to a long-term position of employment? Are a few lines enough to decide that this employer is a good match for the candidate and to pick the environment in which the latter will spend most of his or her future working life? 

As a company, Fischer CNC-Technik GmbH doesn’t merely want to be attractive for its own employees over the long term, and therefore believes that in the current environment, candidates must consider many other factors alongside the ones mentioned above in order to make an informed choice of employer. These include transparency and openness concerning working conditions – even before the first personal contact – and the stating of all benefits (outside the normal pay scale) that are offered to company employees. As one example, Fischer CNC-Technik GmbH supplements the advice and support it offers for joining the employee-financed company pension scheme with an employer-financed company pension plan with voluntary contributions from a period of employment exceeding two years, to close any potential gaps in retirement income. 

Despite fixed working hours, maximum flexibility is also offered in this area: working hours and holiday accounts let employees enjoy the benefits of longer periods of holiday while also enabling the employer to adjust production to match the order situation. Standard pay is also supplemented by voluntary benefits that enable employees to share in the company’s success when the business is doing well. These may include one-time bonuses, holiday money or the payment of additional bonuses on the achievement of service anniversaries. If these general conditions are found to be agreeable, it’s ultimately a question of the working environment and the rapport with supervisory staff and colleagues. The last point is certainly an important one, but can only be assessed during a face-to-face meeting. As regards the former point, company management at Fischer CNC-Technik GmbH makes every effort to make high-performance, state-of-the-art machinery and equipment available to its employees in an appealing working environment. For examples, please see the sections “About us” and “Machine fleet”. Last but not least, the well-kept company grounds are also an attractive feature for both employees and visitors.
