This transformation is based on a Conscious Capitalist philosophy and on the company’s core values. These values were chosen by the employees and they drive the way the company understands business and interacts with all stakeholders: PeopleFreaks, ChallengeManiacs, ChangeLovers and FUNtasticTeamPlayers.

Its innovative human resources policies are a great ingredient too. These consist on establishing no boundaries in teleworking, multiple benefits like on site massages or life coaching sessions, the daily usage of happiness rating tools, numerous trainings across all teams and a flat and sociocratic structure. This flat organisation is based on decision cycles and cross-cutting teams which are capable of developing and realising new projects. Ultimately, Voxel employees have the tools and trust to increase their involvement in the decision-making process and they can successfully combine their professional and personal life. To make all this happen, the company reinvests the 80% of its benefits to increase the happiness of its employees.

Besides, in order to guarantee that the corporate strategy of Voxel is not only loable but also highly profitable, the company takes part in a study drived by EADA – a business school in Barcelona – to gather empirical results.

We are a great place to work in and it motivates us to keep working on how we are doing things as a key to our successful business model”.
