The east cosmos corporate culture

Family and friendly - even outside of work

At east cosmos we make every effort to provide our employees with a pleasant working environment. The cross-hierarchical "du" philosophy, absolute equality and diversity, people's health and social and ecological sustainability are the pillars of our corporate culture.
In addition, joint, sometimes private, events help to strengthen social interaction and interpersonal "team spirit".

For many years we have been running joint events and activities - inside and outside the company - with a focus on various social components. We present some of them here:

Our values ​​count

We use the informal "Du" philosophy

For us, the "Du" is the focus – for everyone. Whether trainees, employees, or managers, this "Du" promotes an open and appreciative working relationship that connects us in our daily work.

Health & Well-being

Every year, we organize a Health Day in collaboration with AOK to promote the health of our employees. This day offers numerous activities that help strengthen healthy lifestyles and support well-being.

Strong women at east cosmos
Without them, nothing works.

46.7% of the 376 employees at east cosmos are women. They occupy various positions in all areas of the hotel and restaurant business and, like their male colleagues, ensure that the business runs smoothly every day.
In order to give our strong women a platform, we asked some of them to be interviewed and gained exciting and inspiring insights into their view of things. We have compiled all the interviews here. Enjoy reading.

Graduation of our trainees

PARTY! PARTY! PARTY!

The farewell of our beloved trainees is celebrated twice a year at the end of their training. The graduates are given ceremonial gifts and honored for their achievements by their department heads and colleagues. To our great joy, the majority of the trainees stay with the company - they are taken on and start their careers in the catering, event and hotel industry.

Birthday presents

Small gifts for everyone

Every employee, regardless of their position, receives a birthday present initiated by management and the HR department. Many teams also organize additional, privately financed departmental gifts for their colleagues, bake birthday cakes, decorate desks or go out to eat together.

Dragon Boat Cup

B EAST Y BOYS for the win

The annual charity event of the Michael Stich Foundation is a highlight in Hamburg. The east dragon boat team, the B EAST Y BOYS, has been there for many years and is the absolute record holder. No team has won the dragon boat cup race more often than the B EAST Y BOYS. If that's not a reason to celebrate! The diverse and multicultural team is always on the lookout for strong young talent.

Trainee events in Hamburg

The trainee canoe tour in the summer was an exciting event that gave the trainees the opportunity to work together as a team and get to know each other better in private, away from the company. In addition to canoeing, they enjoyed nature on and along the Alster and its tributaries and experienced a strengthening sense of community.

There were also sandy prospects in October 2024 for the trainees and department heads of east cosmos, as they all went to Beach Hamburg, the beach volleyball hall in Wandsbek, where numerous games, puzzles and lots of fun awaited the participants.

We love our office dogs

Four-legged friends are welcome

Our bright hotel dog and internal mascot April accompanies us at work every day and reduces stress with cuddles or provides the necessary break in the fresh air with ball games in the hotel garden.
In general, well-behaved dogs are very welcome in our offices, as they have been proven to contribute to a better working environment through various factors.

We can do employee parties!

With a suitable motto, decorations and costumes

The employee parties in the east are legendary! All employees of the east cosmos are invited to celebrate together in the east. What's special is that these large events are organized and hosted by the trainees.
From finding a motto to the decoration concept to the service, the trainees have the opportunity to let off steam (under the watchful eyes of their department heads). They can let their creativity run wild and inspire their colleagues with unusual parties.

Space for quality time together

Building and maintaining new friendships

Our trainees regularly organize private events on their own, where they cook and laugh together. The good time spent together strengthens the team spirit and gives them the opportunity to exchange ideas outside of work and get to know each other better in a private setting.
