HPP Culture: Our employees are our asset

Humans with heart and common sense.

Our employees are supposed to feel comfortable – we are creating the necessary atmosphere for outstanding consulting performance through an appealing working environment , which is characterized by trust, respect and joy of work.

The commitment of each and every one is as important as team work , to produce results which inspire and enthuse.

Our consultants think and act entrepreneurial and creatively use their free space for the success of their clients. Professionality and first-class performance are only coexistent through the balance of demand and support.

What we are proud of: our employees regularly praise our outstanding company culture. The low employee fluctuation speaks for itself.

Flat hierarchies. Open door policy. Collegiality & solidarity. Professionality. Creative freedom.

Social commitment

Our understanding of taking on responsibility embraces both our environment and fellow human beings. The education of adolescents is particularly dear to us. HPP offers adolescents the opportunity of gaining insights into the daily work life of a consultant at an early stage in their lives, for example with the possibility of a pupil internship or the Girls’ Day. Furthermore, we support business students of the TU Darmstadt within the scope of the Deutschlandstipendium (German scholarship) and help charitable organizations and clubs.
