At Dialogic, you have a lot of freedom in how you organise your workweek. Your workspace is also flexible and depends on arrangements at the office, at home, or elsewhere.
At the office
You can always come to the office. Working from home is thus not required (but permitted). At the office, you will find your colleagues. The office provides good workspaces and rooms for hybrid or online meetings. At 12:30, lunch is served together at our long lunch table. Hardly anyone has lunch at their desk.
You will be given a key to the front door. Therefore, you can decide when to start and finish, coordinating your schedule with other members of your project team for joint meetings and with external parties for interviews or appointments. Working hours are generally between 8:30-17:30 from Monday to Friday.
If you are new to Dialogic, we recommend spending as much time as possible in the office. This makes it easier to get to know your colleagues, ask questions about how tasks should be carried out, and learn from your colleagues. Once you can work more independently, you can also work from home more often.
At home
You may work from home for up to (on average) half of the week, if you find it pleasant and it fits within the projects you are working on. These can be fixed days in the week or as needed (just make it clear in your schedule). Many colleagues, for example, choose to work from home when they need to concentrate (e.g. writing a report), and prefer to be at the office for other tasks.
We offer opportunities for working from home. Everyone receives a laptop as standard. If needed, we can provide an external monitor, desk chair, and work phone for you. We work in online environments, so you can continue your research from anywhere. If you have questions for colleagues, you can always reach them by phone or through Teams.
We believe in the importance of meeting each other. Our goal is that no more than 50% of work is done from home, so you see everyone regularly.
Elsewhere
You always work on projects commissioned by others. Therefore, you will regularly visit clients for introductions or project progress meetings. In many studies, we also conduct interviews, some of which take place online or require you to visit the interviewee. We frequently visit ministries in The Hague, but interviews can take place throughout the country and in Flanders as well. For example, our researchers have conducted interviews with detainees in prisons nationwide, or with employees at shipyards. For telecom research, we have conducted measurements on bicycles in rural areas to map the coverage of 5G or the installation of fibre optic cables.
