Bretten:
modern location with tradition

msg’s Bretten location is the headquarters of msgGillardon. Back in 1920, Wilhelm Gillardon founded the interest tables publishing company – the very core on which today's company is based. There are around 150 employees working at the Bretten location, primarily in administration and for renowned customers in the banking industry. The company offers business consulting, standard and individual developments and system integration all from a single source, while also successfully realizing projects for data centers and financial institutes of all sizes.

Team work is key in Bretten. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly; everyone knows one another and (decision-making) channels are short. In Bretten we are just as familiar with agile development methods, such as Scrum, as we are with traditional process models.

The offices in Bretten are high-quality, air-conditioned and offer a pleasant view of nature. Conference rooms with the latest video conference technology, as well as comfortable meeting islands are available for internal and external meetings, as well as for cross-location discussions and chats. Benefits such as free beverages, a weekly back strengthening class and free parking make our location even more attractive. For breaks in between we enjoy grabbing a quick cup of coffee together in our “Coffee Corner” located in the foyer, at our foosball table or, weather permitting, on our rooftop terrace. A large employee kitchen and eating area are available where employees can warm up and savor their lunches.

Every summer, the company premises turn into a party zone for our summer family festival and we even have a bounce house for kids! We celebrate at ring out the year at our annual holiday party too, to which partners and spouses are invited.

One very unique feature about the location in Bretten is the “Teatro Gillardo”, our very own theater troupe composed of theater-loving employees and friends, which has even become an established part of Bretten’s cultural scene and has successfully put on an exciting production every year for ten years now.

The prestigious new building, which went up in 2007, is located at the edge of town and is easy to reach by public transportation.

Bretten is located between Karlsruhe and Stuttgart and dates back almost 1,250 years. It is an up-and-coming, mid-sized city in the technological region of Karlsruhe. With a variety of cultural and recreational offerings, Bretten offers its approximately 29,000 residents a good quality of life. And those who dream of traveling back to the Middle Ages will find the perfect setting in the annual Peter-and-Paul Festival.
