The secret ingredient in building a strong culture that supports performance and learning, while also being fun and satisfying, isn’t about using trendy buzzwords or having core values and codes of conduct published on an intranet (at least not for us). At Cupole, we genuinely believe our people define our remarkable culture, and that’s why we give back as compassionately as we can to keep it that way.

So what are the secret ingredients? Hard to say, but we do honor entrepreneurship, business sense, a supportive approach, an inclusive manner and energizing behavior (to mention a few things). On top of that, we enjoy spending time together. This seems to be a winning recipe!

Our foundation is rooted in solving our clients’ most strategically difficult questions. The satisfaction this brings us is our oxygen. As our clients’ issues become more complex, we believe that it’s essential to operate within a larger context and a more extensive network. Eidra is the Cupole way of doing this.

By working together with innovation wizards, tech gurus and true creatives – all experts within their discipline – we are also shaping and evolving our skills in our own discipline. We are on a journey to define a new benchmark of what Management Consulting should be, and this is profoundly satisfying

Embark your career ascent with clarity! Our consulting journey zips through three stages: Consultant, Project Manager, then Principal and, hopefully, Partner. With a Level Lead for development check-ins, a mentor for insights and support, and a team that gives you feedback and wants you to shine, you are well equipped for the ride.

Feedback is something we particularly rely on at Cupole – and it needs to be transparent and crystal clear. That’s why every Friday (at least) we remind our teams to give valuable feedback to each other, both top-down and bottom-up; the full 360. We also ask each Cupolean to evaluate their team members each month on performance, again both bottom-up and top-down, ensuring a full 360 evaluation. Taken together, this ensures a solid, fair foundation on which to base career decisions.

Do you know how much your colleagues earn? At Cupole, we all do, because our compensation model is 100% transparent. Everyone at the same level earns exactly the same amount.

With a transparent model, we want to take paychecks off everyone’s minds and free ourselves to focus on learning and developing – because that’s where the largest payoff comes from.

We believe that curiosity and an eagerness to learn are super important for growth and development. That’s why we give Cupoleans plenty of occasions to receive and share knowledge, within Cupole as well as the rest of Eidra.

Sharing project insights, academic reports, new trends, and tips and tricks for mastering new tools is as obvious as sharing life experience. Everyone has something insightful to bring to the table.

Cupole’s entrepreneurial spirit has always been its guiding star. We understand the importance of maintaining an inclusive and open work culture, where everyone feels valued and heard … and motivated to take the initiative and strive for improvement.

Our Cupole Friday Gatherings are one of the ways we incorporate this into our everyday work life. Each week we gather, share the latest company updates, and work collaboratively to strengthen Cupole as a team.

Ongoing focus is on internal initiatives designed to make Cupole better, which are always celebrated.

We highly value the time we spend together as colleagues and friends. We know that building strong relationships is a crucial factor for our success, giving us a safe and solid foundation to lean on when pushing ourselves to deliver and perform beyond expectations.

Our bond is strengthened by celebration dinners, project team kick-ins & kick-outs, and conferences in stunning locations.

Our leisure club, Cupole Elements, involves activities like stand-up, horseback riding, yoga and “Speedcats” (for the daring).

While the activities themselves are fun, they also energize us and create shared experiences and connections.

We understand that working in the consulting industry can be rewarding and challenging, but can also impact your personal life. That’s why we prioritize flexibility and offer multiple options to improve and maintain work-life balance.

To be specific – we provide 30 days of annual vacation, two extra weeks of paid leave, and parental leave compensation at 80% of salary for up to 180 parental days per child. We also offer part-time and remote work options, so our employees can customize their work schedule to suit their lifestyle.

For us, hiring is more rigorous than it is intuitive. It’s about being extremely thorough – blending scientific theory with, you guessed it, data collection to guide decision-making. But that doesn’t mean the interaction is technocratic. We aim to provide every candidate with a professional, engaging experience when they interact with us. Our process is quite meticulous and includes the following components (though not necessarily in this order)
