Culture

This is Staffbase

We set big goals, take real ownership, and genuinely care about each other. Here's what life at Staffbase actually looks like.

Great ideas can come from anywhere

Staffbase was founded in Chemnitz in 2014 — not in Silicon Valley, not in Berlin, but in a city most people in tech hadn't heard of. That was the point. We've always believed that world-class work doesn't require a famous postcode. Today, we're still founder-led, trusted by over 1,500 enterprises worldwide, and recognized as an industry leader by analysts and customers alike.

Our teams work across Chemnitz, New York, Berlin, London, and beyond. They are hybrid, flexible, and connected through a shared belief that the best ideas win, no matter where they come from.

Our values

We take ownership

We go the extra mile together, leaving no stone unturned in our pursuit of excellence, and are empowered to make the difference! We take the initiative and move with purpose, celebrate our achievements, recognize lessons in our mistakes, and move to the next mountain to climb.

When you grow we all grow

We have a growth mindset, embrace change, and move forward with curiosity and courage. We get better every day, act with humility and ambition, and are enabled by our commitment to learning, honest feedback, and open minds.

We truly care

We love building Staffbase together and put our mission and our customers at the heart of what we do. We always assume positive intent, listen to and respect each other’s perspectives, deeply value authenticity, and prioritize clarity over harmony.

What it’s actually like

There's something people notice when they join Staffbase. The ambition is real — we set high standards, we move with purpose, and we don't settle easily. But the empathy is just as real. People here are humble. They listen before they react, and they deeply respect each other’s perspectives. That's not a contradiction. It's how we work.

We collaborate across countries, continents, and time zones. And no matter how much we grow, the thread that connects us is the same one that was there from day one: great things happen when high standards and humble character go hand in hand.

Real perspectives from across our global team. Unscripted, unfiltered.

Staffbase is the place to be if you want to be rewarded for hard work, get real feedback for your growth, and be part of a culture that pushes you to succeed — without losing your work-life balance.

Tommy

Customer Success Manager

I joined Staffbase ten years ago as a content writer and built an entire career in marketing since then. The company gave me the freedom to explore, discover what I love, and grow alongside a scaling team. Now I'm taking on a completely new challenge as an Executive Assistant — proof that there's always a next chapter waiting for you at Staffbase.

What surprised me most about working at Staffbase is how genuinely helpful people are. Whether I've met them in person or only worked with them virtually, everyone is incredibly supportive and always willing to help. It creates a really positive environment where you feel comfortable reaching out and learning from others.

Competitive compensation

Attractive salary packages including LTIP (Long Term Incentive Plan), with annual merit cycles to ensure your compensation stays in line with market standards.

Diversity & Inclusion

Everyone belongs here

Our strength comes from the diversity of backgrounds, experiences, and viewpoints across our global team.

We believe the best work happens when people can be themselves — fully and without compromise. That's why we actively invest in employee resource groups (ERGs) — employee-led communities where our team can connect, support each other, and shape how Staffbase grows.

Today, five of these communities help make that real:
