Another double win for PHOTONIC at the Great Place To Work® For All™ Stars Night in Vienna: In addition to its distinction as one of Austria‘s best employers, the lighting specialist was once again presented with the Best Employer Branding Award in 2026.

For Managing Director Stefan Zotter, this double win is above all a sign of trust: “We give our staff members the space that their ideas need. I am immensely  grateful for the motivation and the pride they draw from that and which they always show when representing PHOTONIC. This accomplishment belongs to the entire team.“ A double win that demonstrates that a strong corporate culture is not only felt. It is also seen.

The foundation of this success does not lie in glossy company brochures. It grows in everyday work, must reassert itself every single day and has a very real common denominator: the people in the company. “Our employer branding is neither loud nor excessively stylish. It is plainly authentic and has the support of the entire team“, stress PHOTONIC Marketing Manager Anne Killmeyer and Claudia Reiterer, WILD Group Human Resources.

Day-to-day interaction is characterised by team spirit, mutual support, meaningful tasks and an open error culture. This creates a fertile ground for an environment in which people are happy to take on responsibility.
