A Friendly Spirit and an Atmosphere of Trust

A response for the media, February 2026.

We spend most of our lives working, and that is why I consider it important to set the basic conditions well. A friendly spirit and an atmosphere of trust are important for teamwork and creative activity. I believe that if an employer creates a setting in which people feel safe, there is no need to compensate for it with a multitude of benefits. Some of them are nowadays taken for granted as a prerequisite for doing the job. Equally, we consider essential an understanding of unexpected situations, help in time of need, and regular care in the form of meetings and spending time together outside working hours. Simply put, we try to listen to employees' needs and to meet their requirements to the greatest extent of mutual satisfaction. It is not unusual for some employees to stay with us not only until retirement, but for some to help out on a casual basis even afterwards. More than once, people have shown interest in working with us after experience in corporate companies, because they appreciate the family-like and friendly atmosphere of the firm.
