7 April 2025

We are absolutely delighted to share some big news: ISCC is one of the winners of this year’s Great Place To Work® competition, “Best Workplaces in North Rhine Westphalia 2025”. The award was announced on 3 April by the Great Place to Work® research and consulting institute.

The award is given to companies offering employees attractive and conducive working conditions. This recognition is not just a win for ISCC but also for the wider MEO Group, which unites our sister companies under one shared vision. It’s thanks to the energy, passion, and commitment of our entire team, we have achieved something truly special. Being named one of the top employers in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) means a lot, especially in a region so dense with innovation, talent, opportunity, and competition.

“It is impressive how consistently and sustainably the participating companies in the Great Place To Work® initiative regularly gather feedback from their employees in order to further develop their company, and this in a market environment that is sometimes so volatile”, says Andreas Schubert, Managing Director at Great Place To Work® Germany. “The fact that they made it onto the list of the best out of over 1,000 participating companies shows the top quality in terms of the workplace culture they have in place.”

The Team’s Voice: At the Heart of the Award

The award is based on an evaluation process that puts employee feedback front and centre. It started with an anonymous, representative survey of MEO Group staff, covering topics like trust in leadership, team spirit, fairness, appreciation, respect, and how strongly people identify with the company. Alongside this, we also took part in a culture audit, sharing what initiatives and programmes are in place to create a great workplace environment. The results reflected something we’ve long felt – that our team feels respected, appreciated, and proud of the work we do.

What This Moment Means to Us

The Great Place To Work®  award reflects the culture we have built together over the past decade – one rooted in a shared purpose, dedication and trust. The recognition is important not just for our team but also for our partners, clients, and the community around us. It means that we are a place where people enjoy working, which also impacts the overall quality of our work, that we attract great talent and continue to grow. We are proud that 97% of our new employees feel immediately welcome. You can find more results and background information on our company profile on the Great Place To Work® website.

As Lisa Mies, Head of People & Culture at MEO Group, puts it: “This award as one of the best employers in NRW fills us with great gratitude and pride. It is a strong sign of our colleagues’ trust – precisely what drives us: to create a working culture characterised by openness, appreciation and continuous development. For us, feedback from our teams is not an end in itself, but a guiding principle – because only together can we create a working environment that is sustainable in a dynamic market and in which everyone can contribute with joy and conviction.”

Gratitude for Our Team and an Invitation to the Future

To our team – thank you for participating in the survey, but more importantly, for your trust, hard work, and belief in what we are building together. This is our shared award. And to those curious about joining us, we always look for people who want to grow, make an impact, and be part of something meaningful. Get in touch!
