The justly famous company with Hungarian roots has been one of the most dynamically developing businesses of the last 20 years, yet it has managed to maintain its family character. Matusz-Vad has a strong focus on development opportunities, work-life balance and overall employee well-being.
Not only is the company family, so is the environment
The company, which currently employs more than 400 people family atmosphere is not only reflected in the structure of the company. It tries to hold community-building programmes that go beyond departmental team-builders, but seek to bring colleagues together on a company-wide basis. „We believe that we work together not only in the office, but also on a bike ride and when we cook together. And one of our most popular weekly breakfasts is a great opportunity for colleagues to have a regular, informal chat about the weekend ahead or the successes they've achieved during the week. The aim is to create a general atmosphere in which everyone feels equally important and valued for their work.” - says the owner, Balázs Matusz.
One ship and a common purpose
Nothing proves this better than the fact that all employees in a company can benefit from the profits made in a given period several times a year, regardless of their position. This means that every colleague, from warehouse staff to senior managers, who has worked for more than 6 months is entitled to a six-month bonus. In addition, senior managers can be approached not only with confidence but with the same direct tone as colleagues at the same level. Employee satisfaction is important to both owners and management, so human relations are at least as important as the remuneration arrangements already mentioned. The way in which the company handled the pandemic outbreak also speaks volumes about the company's mentality, as unlike many other employers, it did not consider redundancies. The guiding principle was to keep, even if on reduced hours, the colleagues who helped get the company to where it is now.
Internal improvements and opportunities for advancement
As part of the company's culture of providing its employees with all the tools they need to work smoothly and efficiently, a number of in-house developed programs have been created over the years. One of these is the project tracking system, which allows everyone to keep track of exactly where a task is, by when and who is responsible for it. Another is the data visualisation system, which primarily supports production maximisation. These programmes are fully tailored to the company's profile by the IT department and greatly help to ensure efficient work. In addition, Matusz-Vad places great emphasis on internal development and promotion opportunities, which other employees can use to stay motivated. By monitoring industry trends throughout the year, it is not only able to keep pace with its competitors, but also to provide a cutting-edge service.
Flexible working hours and a cosy garden at the Kőbánya site
Many of you may be familiar with the problem that some official business or ad hoc problems can only be dealt with during working hours. At Matusz-Vad, whether a task is done is more important than when and where it is done. No one has to take half a day off work if the technician can come during the day or if there is only a 10 o'clock doctor's appointment. One day a week of home working can be requested on request and decided jointly by the head of the department and the staff. The company also tries to make the time spent in the office as pleasant as possible.
Office Garden, the company's favourite meeting point
It has been repeatedly proven that in addition to the fact that plants clean the air, have a positive impact on general well-being and productivity. That's why an Office Garden has been set up at the Kőbánya site, which is free for anyone to use. It is an excellent place for quiet retreats, meetings, communal meals, but the fireplace has also been the epicentre of team-building cookouts and Friday lounges. After lunch, it's not uncommon to have an inter-class ping-pong or foosball match, followed by endless return rounds. This area is also under constant development. Every year, more and more flowers and ornamental plants find a home here, and the bees are kept busy by the fabulous lavender.
