At Eraneos, we stand for a work environment where everyone feels at home. We foster a culture of respect, appreciation and belonging. We work in teams where everyone can develop their talents and work together for the best results. We believe that a diversity of perspectives and ideas is the key to creativity and success. That’s why we create a work environment where everyone feels heard and safe, regardless of religion, gender or sexual orientation. The drive of our people is our engine. We actively invest in their development and well-being so that we can unleash their potential. We value openness, feedback and continuous learning so that together we can excel and create value for our stakeholders.
Diversity
The more diverse the expertise, skills and insights, the better the results for our clients. That is why our teams reflect a mix of people: from technical specialists to consultants, from data engineers to scientists. We approach problems from different disciplines and perspectives.
Embracing diversity means valuing the different backgrounds, perspectives and experiences of our people. We actively fight discrimination and prejudice and create a dynamic culture where everyone feels respected, heard and understood. By being open to different perspectives, one strengthens the other. In this way, ideas thrive and we grow together.
Inspiring environment
“For me, inspiring means finding a way to touch people, to let them be authentic and to offer support. You work 40 hours a week. Are you doing it from your strengths, with people you like, and is the organization offering what you need? Then you are in the right place, I always say. At Eraneos we are big enough and small enough. There are plenty of opportunities for your drive and ambition, and we’re small enough to maintain personal contact. It’s a good balance and that’s what makes Eraneos such an inspiring company to work for”.
Dragana Mijatovic, Partner
Equality
In our eyes, everyone is equal. Regardless of background, religion, age, gender or sexual orientation, everyone is entitled to the same opportunities. We have a number of programs and initiatives in place to create a work culture where everyone feels equal.
Our initiatives
We train employees to recognize and address unconscious bias so that together we can create a workplace where everyone feels at home.
Employees are paired with an experienced coach. This supports everyone’s individual development, both as a person and as a professional.
We offer targeted training and development to meet different needs and aspirations.
We believe it is important to have a good work-life balance. No matter what stage of life or situation the employee is in.
We provide resources and support to help employees put their mental health first. For example, we offer everyone access to OpenUp: the online mental wellness portal with online guidance from licensed psychologists and experts.
Colleagues with similar backgrounds and experiences come together in workgroups and communities. They advise the Executive Committee on issues such as diversity and inclusion. There is an international community where employees from inside and outside the LGBTIQ+ community meet, support and feel connected.
We openly report on the progress of diversity and inclusion initiatives and goals to drive continuous improvement. In addition, we share and discuss the results of our monthly happiness survey with all employees to monitor and improve our workplace culture as needed.
A little bit of everything
“Showing your true colors? Yes, please – but the same color? No, thanks! As long as the dot on the horizon is the same, each leader can inspire and lead in their own unique way. At Eraneos we have both male and female leaders from different cultural backgrounds. What unites us is our energy and the way we strengthen each other through mutual support and honesty.”
Maurice Boon, Managing Partner
Inclusion
We strive to create a safe and trusting environment. An environment where everyone can be themselves and feel valued.
Our culture is open and informal. We walk in on each other without an appointment. Anyone, regardless of role, can ask questions, give feedback and interact with management. We believe in the power of diverse personalities and opinions. We listen to each other and give and receive constructive feedback. In our work, inspiration, professionalism and trust are invaluable to success. These are values that both employees and clients look for and find in us.
Eraneos supports initiatives to increase equality for people, contributing to a more inclusive society. For example, since 2017 we have been working with UWV to address the shortage of qualified IT staff. Through this collaboration, job seekers and refugees can participate in Eraneos’ open training schedule free of charge. Together with ITvitae, we have also developed special data science and data engineering programs for ICT professionals with high-functioning autism.
