Top employer in the IT sector 2024

Handelsblatt: makandra is in the top 10

Teamfotos - Moods

At makandra, we have always attached great importance to sustainable corporate management and future-oriented strategies in personnel management. And our efforts are bearing fruit: with a score of 81.4 points, we came 8th in the Handelsblatt's ranking of Germany's best IT employers in the category of IT companies with 51-100 employees. The Social Science Institute Schad (SWI) selected the 140 best out of over 1,500 participating companies. 

In addition, DUP UNTERNEHMER magazine, in collaboration with the German Innovation Institute for Sustainability and Digitalization (DIIND), named us "Employer of the Future". This title is awarded to companies that "impress with innovative approaches, sustainable corporate management and a future-oriented strategy, for example in human resources management."

We are very proud of the fact that we perform above average in the rankings. But our concept is very simple: structured collaboration and genuine team cohesion paired with flexibility and a strong giving-back culture. Our benefits catalog is long and varied. We have made sure that there really is something for everyone.
