Sarah Moll: ‘Learned to act independently’
‘I started as an order picker. Because I picked up everything quickly, I was offered the job of team assistant after six months. I took that opportunity with both hands. I am currently in training to become a team leader. VIM has taught me to set priorities and to be independently. The work atmosphere is truly pleasant. You really get a sense of belonging here and the company shows interest in you as a person. Twice a month, a one-on-one meeting with my manager is scheduled. Then I have time to talk about everything. The fact that we are becoming increasingly bigger, also gives me energy.’
Erwin Bronwasser: ‘Familiar atmosphere’
‘I started as a team assistant and grown to become a team leader after a while. Together with a colleague-team leader and our employees we make sure all the goods are processed. Every day is a great challenge to achieve the daily targets and to make sure the customer is satisfied. Not every employee is the same and that is recognised here. The atmosphere is familiar. At VIM, it is important for employees to feel good about themselves and that you are able to develop.’
Damian Witkowski: ‘Developed myself to a team leader’
I started at VIM as a reachtruck driver and after a few months I became a team-assistant and I developed myself to a team leader. It’s funny that the warehouse seems several times smaller than it really is. The most valuable thing I learned at VIM was always to be ambitious and to never give up. My favorite day at VIM was when all employees from Swalmen raised money for a new bicycle for a co-worker when she became 60 years old, im proud of my employees!
Maria Kohnen: ‘They are understanding’
‘VIM is a understanding employer. They supported me during a difficult time. I was then allowed to return and was also offered a contract. I am happy with that. VIM is also committed to my development: in addition to the tasks of logistic employee, I also work on return shipments.’
Patrick Wemelsfelder: ‘No half work’
‘The people at VIM are patient and pleasant, showing respect for one another and making you feel appreciated. The company gave me more responsibility by making me responsible for building, which involves the building of pick corridors. I find it important to carry out my tasks properly and carefully. No half work!’
Anna Baran: ‘I’ve signed my second contract!’
Since last year, I have been working at VIM as a Logistics employee where I make sure that all orders are packed by the end of the day. I notice that VIM is committed because I get multiple tasks and everyone is always willing to help you. I am happy that I was able to sign my second contract and hope that one day I will get the chance to grow here.
Ahmed Boutazarte: ‘Happy when the trucks arrive on time’
‘Our small team is involved in the loading and unloading of trucks and the picking of orders. I enjoy getting in contact with many people by doing this job. Besides that, I am happy when the trucks arrive on time, LOL. I have learned to work with a computer, and I learned a lot about diverse cultures during breaks.’
Chris van den Beuken: ‘Team does not contain an I’
‘As an employee support office, I am mainly involved in the planning, inbound and customs. I am proud of my work, because top athletes at the highest level use the materials we send neatly and on time. I am experiencing nice things. I once had a driver standing in front of me who could talk for five minutes without stopping. We work well together. Our motto is: team does not contain an I.’
Debbie van Dreumel: ‘Good work atmosphere’
‘I started as an order picker, but after a while i was given the opportunity to develop myself in becoming an employee support office. I enjoy going to work every day. The work atmosphere is good. A very special moment was when almost all of my colleagues and managers were present at the cremation of my father. And for my birthday they organised a surprise party.’
Lenka Dzurdzenikova: ‘They give a chance to grow’
A few years ago I started as a Logistics employee at VIM and advanced to team assistant, the day they informed me about this, was my best day at VIM. I found out that they are very committed here because they do something with your ideas and feedback, in addition they give you a chance to grow and work on the working conditions. Last carnival a few employees dressed up, it’s nice to be able to break the routine sometimes.
Kinga Ratka: ‘i have learned a lot’
I started at VIM as a Logistics Employee and have always wanted to grow in the company. I have learned a lot here including having patience, working with a computer and solving problems related to orders. VIM taught me to be a good team assistant and the moment I was promoted was the most special moment here. Because of the good vibes here I’m proud of my team and I go home happy.
Anna Goronska: ‘It is an open organization’
I have been working at VIM as a Logistics Engineer for a few months now. I mainly deal with IT during the implementation of new customers and I’m also responsible for system optimization. Initially I had applied for the position Employee Business Office, but I indicated that I was always interested in systems and the processes and they looked at what suits me best. It is an open organization and they help you here to pursue your dreams.
