Our IT Cube in Hanau: The Open Space Office

Our IT Cube in Hanau:

The Open Space Office

Over 50 percent of the 300 IT employees in our IT Cube in Hanau have chosen a shared desk that can be used by anyone. They decide where to sit in the morning based on what work they have to do – if they're not working from home. Then it's a matter of plugging in a laptop, plugging in a headset, and that's it in the IT Cube. Everyone else has a classic fixed desk.

Dirk, CIO of Evonik:

Dirk, CIO of Evonik:

"For me, IT is a "value enabler" that enables colleagues at Evonik to create value and be successful. To do that, we provide innovative applications and solutions, but we must also encourage people to join the efforts, teach them new skills and ways of thinking so that our applications are actually accepted and used. Only the combination of both creates added value, and that's what we're passionate and enthusiastic about in IT."
