The story of Koodin begins with the desire for honesty and equality. And it starts with Dennis.

"In most companies, the salary level often goes hand in hand with a political game. The one with the loudest voice gets more. Utterly unfair. That has to change, and it can change.” Everyone deserves equal treatment, so at Koodin, everything is negotiable, salaries are equal, and everything is transparent. We are now a team that believes in that thought and is contributing to the growth of Koodin. “Those first people, they are the foundation for the culture of our company.”

At Koodin, the focus is on the individual. "Quality of life, in business terms, means being able to be yourself, being supported in growth, being allowed to make mistakes, no backroom politics, and treating each other honestly and respectfully."

With the senior-only policy as the only condition, everyone is welcome at Koodin. “I am very open to anyone who doesn’t look like me.” Dennis particularly wants to prevent the 'corporate' uniformity. “It doesn't matter what your name is, who you're attracted to, or where you come from. Senior is senior; it's about skills. And once inside, everyone is equal.”

At the absolute core of our company is the individual. So we also pay attention to the work-life balance, with a slight emphasis on private life. How often do you see fun 'Friday afternoon drinks' and 'ping pong competitions' happening outside of work hours? “That camaraderie with the team is also very important to us, but then within work hours. Work and private life need to be in balance. So we also take home life into account. Makes sense.”

Being a senior at Koodin goes beyond just hard skills. Communication skills, a safe work culture, the courage to be vulnerable, and radiating joy are important. “The difference between a senior and a senior who excels is in self-reliance and proactivity. Delivering quality before the client asks for it—that makes the difference.”

At Koodin, we assess whether a project truly suits us. And if it doesn’t fit, you will hear that from us too. “That transparency is sacred to us. It certainly happens that we do not accept projects because they are not fun or challenging enough, resulting in us not being able to deliver maximum value. Then we are simply not the right partner for them.”

The appreciation for our approach is also reflected back from our clients. "Beautiful things happen thanks to the consultants at Koodin. What you provide is truly a lot better than what I had before!"
