“I joined the company in August 2012. I was attracted by the high technology and the wish to discover new products. After 3 months in the business, I really feel to have made the right choice because on the one hand, for the “technological” aspect. Indeed, I‘ve satisfied my wish to "see other things" with products that appeal to a wide variety of trades and technologies and highly specialized expertise. On the other hand for the "human" aspect because I was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and working conditions within the company. The working atmosphere is both serious and friendly, which promotes human contact. Quickly we can notice that the company’s human values are not only displayed but shared daily by all employees. PHOTONIS is really a dynamic company where we feel good, we are recognized for our work, and then we want to give the best of ourselves.”

The company also committed to my development and improving my career. When I joined the company, I started working in production. Thanks to PHOTONIS, I've obtained a diploma of commercial officer. I feel valued in this company and I hope to work at PHOTONIS for a long time”

“PHOTONIS is a warm company. We have good contacts with each other and reasonably short lines. As technical service we have direct contact with the person for whom you are doing a job. I have almost 40 years ago quite deliberately chosen for a company in the high technology. Especially that technical aspect captivated me already then and still now. There are still many new developments that keep it interesting. I still like working here very much!”

My introduction period was very good and intense. All collegues were very open and helped me to find my way in the whole company, not only the different departments but also the production processes. If there is a problem everybody is willing to help, even ideas for improvements are easy to discuss and implement.  Contacts with our colleques in Brive are  also very good. As part of my introduction I visited them in France for three days. Now I know who I can contact and we exchange  information when needed. It is really nice to have good cooperation between both sides. Being a Supplier Quality Assurance Engineer I have a lot of contact with the suppliers about our components. During my introduction I was also given the opportunity to visit  to many key suppliers to learn more about the hightechn components they produce and the technical issues they have. It is good to build a good relationship with them to improve discussions about specifications and measurements on our components. I already learned a lot and I hope to work here for many years!
