Embodying responsibility, driving technology
How we work
A diverse range of industries as a strength
Ergon develops solutions for companies from various industries; for example, for banks and financial service providers, for public administration bodies, for the retail sector and for eHealth. This produces a wealth of experience and inspires teams to develop unusual and creative solutions. Diversifying the client portfolio also protects against the risks associated with dependency on a single industry. This resilience is a strategic advantage in terms of long-term stability and growth.
Proximity to customers at all levels
Our teams speak the language of our customers – both literally and figuratively. Ergon communicates in German throughout the company in order to meet the needs of its customers, who are mainly based in Switzerland, in the best possible way. The same principle applies to the location. Headquartered in Switzerland, Ergon focuses on geographical proximity as a key factor for successful collaboration. We thus pave the way for pragmatic decisions, closely-coordinated cooperation and joint, iterative project development.
‘Better and better’ as our motto
Ergon stands for fairness at all levels – including salaries. The transparent wage system promotes equal treatment, creates trust and eliminates the need for wage negotiations. We also believe in success through participation. That is why we are experimenting with new organisational structures – with an open, learning and forward-looking attitude. These structures include flat hierarchies and agile and autonomous teams whose members develop on an ongoing basis, both professionally and personally, true to the motto of ‘better and better’. Personal development and professional growth are part of the Ergon DNA.
More about our mission and our values
“I was the 80th employee at Ergon – today there are more than 400, but the atmosphere has remained friendly and has kept its personal touch.”
Committed to people and customers
Every partnership counts
Ergon works with universities, technology partners and customers. Strong partnerships that provide inspiration, drive innovation and translate the latest findings into marketable applications are the key to long-term success.
Where talent thrives
We provide targeted support for talented young people – with internships and in-depth training. Ergon has been training computer science apprentices for more than 20 years. These young talents are regularly amongst the best in their year. The promotion of young talent is diverse, practice-oriented and geared towards long-term development. Those joining Ergon are not just starting their first job – they are also embarking on a career journey with prospects. Through individual support, personal mentoring and exciting projects, we create an environment in which talented individuals can develop their strengths and continuously grow – professionally and personally.
Motivation for more
Ergon has received multiple awards in various areas, both as an employer and for the excellence of our software solutions. We are thrilled to have received this recognition but, more than this, it spurs us on. It encourages us to continually think ahead: in terms of technology, partnerships and customer proximity. Thanks to this motivation, Ergon invests in innovation, cultivates a strong corporate culture and does everything it can to make our solutions even more effective, secure and sustainable. After all, awards are not the final destination – they are the beginning of the next step forward.
