Our vision at Arineo is to become the best employer in the IT industry – a place where people enjoy working and want to stay for the long term. We have developed a people-oriented and strength-oriented organizational model to achieve this goal. This structure enables quick decisions by those with the most significant expertise and allows agile responses to market changes.
We designed our development process like an agile project, with sprints, work packages, testing phases, reviews, and adjustments. Results were regularly presented across the company until we’d created a structure that met our requirements.
Are we finished? No! Our organization is constantly evolving. If we notice that something isn’t working optimally, we adjust it, keeping our structure flexible and tailored to our needs.
Cooperative organization sounds exciting – but what does it really look like in day-to-day work? How do we make decisions without a traditional hierarchy? And what does it mean to share responsibility?
Our colleagues share first-hand experiences of how they experience self-organization at Arineo: about challenges and successes, teamwork, and what it feels like to work in an environment that focuses on trust and personal responsibility.
Leadership is divided across three coordination roles within the base groups:
These roles are assigned based on strengths, depending on each colleague’s talents and interests.
In addition, each colleague has a contract partner. This person is the contact person for all employment contract and personal development questions. Contractual partners undergo a training program to prepare them well for their role.
In base groups, colleagues with similar professional skills come together. These groups coordinate and further develop their skills. Depending on the focus, base groups can be industry-specific (e.g., manufacturing) or specialist-oriented (e.g., e-commerce development).
The skills developed in basic groups are applied in our operational teams.
Depending on the task, our operational teams consist of colleagues with different skills. Examples:
With us, you decide where your professional home is – whether in your base group, a customer team, a sports club with colleagues, or at Arineo as a whole. You will find your place where you feel most comfortable.
