    Senior HR Managerin Carina

    At Univention, we present ourselves as we are. This means that we don’t keep our opinions to ourselves, but say what we really think. Goals and processes are also made transparent for everyone – just as they are when they change. For me, this is something very special. I experience this honest and clear interaction with each other as a form of freedom that allows us to work together in a light-hearted and thus very efficient manner.
