What’s it really like to work at ING?

„You won’t truly know what it’s like until you’re really there.“ There’s a lot of truth to that statement. And that’s why we decided to survey our employees around the world – to gather thousands of opinions on various topics concerning the workday – from culture, diversity, and continuing education, to work-life balance and sustainability. And their opinions show what it’s really like to work at ING. Time to reveal the results!
We want to be more than an employer and to offer more than a job. That’s why we support our employees not only in their work, but also in many other aspects of life. So that everyone can reach their full potential – both professionally and personally.

What you can expect:

Working at ING

Flexible, autonomous and mobile: We were one of the first large companies in Germany to conclude an agreement with our General Works Council to make remote working possible for all employees while respecting any operational, legal or regulatory restrictions. By offering our employees this freedom, we help set the course for the future of work.

To design your mobile workplace according to your wishes, you will receive a personal equipment budget of 1,500 € and a refresher of 600 € every 3 years. The budget is made available in an internal online store, through which the desired equipment can be ordered. 

Agile

We are Germany’s first agile bank. But what does that mean? Everything revolves around ensuring that our customers are satisfied. If something is important to them, then it‘s even more important to us. That’s why we think and work agile and integrate customer feedback directly into our development

Do you think as agile as we do?

Diversity and inclusion

Our customers are diverse. To understand them, we need teams that are every bit as diverse. That's why we foster a culture where people with different personalities, backgrounds, and perspectives can contribute – and where these differences are valued. In addition, we support internal employee networks such as:

  • Lioness: Empowering women at ING
  • Rainbow Lions: Culture without labels
  • YoungING: Growing careers together
  • Cultural Diversity: Promoting cultural diversity
