Integrity, empathy, and trust are very important to us. This is proven by our average company tenure of 14.5 years and very good results in our employee surveys. Watch this video to learn from employees of our DACH region about what connects us and why each and every one of us enjoys working at Olympus.
Working at Olympus

Our benefits for employees
Performance-related pay is a matter of course for us, as are comprehensive social benefits such as a modular company pension scheme, contributions to capital formation and regular health care campaigns.
Our awards as an employer
Extensive further training options, international networks and high quality standards have contributed to Olympus being certified as an employer by the Top Employer Institute for many years in Germany and Europe.
