Some of us drink herbal tea, while others don’t. At farbenmeer, although being hip isn’t a requirement, being human certainly is! We believe in self-organization, so showing our human side is all part of the deal.
Adapted from Fréderic Laloux’s idea: “Self-management, wholeness, evolutionary purpose.” We prioritize intuition, initiative, shared responsibility and full transparency, and so bring everyone’s complete personality into the workplace.
Our salary committee discusses and jointly sets wages based on several factors, including experience and education, individual dedication, and any additional responsibilities. All salaries are transparent for both employees and applicants. We strive to offer fair compensation that supports a good standard of living.
At farbenmeer, hierarchies aren’t flat – they’re non-existent! There’s no boss, no pressure from above, no need to consult with superiors, and no one to hold employees back. By prioritizing self-management and self-organization, we create the scope required for individual development.
At farbenmeer, individuals proactively select a project based on their personal interests and enjoyment. This intrinsic motivation allows us to work with a sense of personal responsibility and self-determination, independently of time and location.
We don’t shy away from conflicts at farbenmeer. Instead, we aim to resolve them peacefully. Empathy, a sense of community, and the space and time we grant each other as colleagues are essential in achieving this goal. Additionally, we offer both internal and external support to ensure that every team member has a well-equipped toolbox for handling conflicts. Through these efforts, we foster an environment of appreciation and mutual trust.
Every team member is equally informed to enable them to make well-informed decisions for themselves and the company based on their own initiative and intuition. While colleagues are always available to provide advice, ultimately, each member is responsible for taking their own decisions.
