„Since opening its doors in October 1998 with just six employees, msg’s location in Passau has grown to become the city’s second-largest private industry employer with more than 500 employees; we are also the largest employer in the software sector in Lower Bavaria. This allows us to offer our employees workplace security and the benefits of a “big mid-sized company”, while also enjoying a familiar atmosphere in our teams and the “Spirit of Passau”.
The Passau branch focuses on product and project development for the Insurance, Food, Banking and Public Sector industries. The group’s Central Administrative and Financial Department is housed in Passau, as is msg services ag, the group’s IT service and consulting partner that develops innovative solutions. Our teams in Passau support many renowned customers, including Munich Re, Hannover Re and Gen Re, finnova AG (Switzerland), LVM (Munster), the VKB (Kassenärztliche Vereinigung Bayerns), the DMK (Deutsche Milchkontor GmbH) and Emmi AG.
Training and education also plays a major role in Passau. That is why we maintain a close cooperation with the University of Passau, work with a variety of vocational schools and provide commercial and IT job training ourselves.
In Passau, innovative solutions are not (just) created in front of a PC, but through constant team work and using modern development methods such as Scrum and Kanban. In order to master the changing and growing challenges of today's IT, training and developing (internationally as well) our employees is not just lip service around here, it is the location’s business strategy. Furthermore, to ensure our customers are getting the programs of the future, we recently instituted minnosphere in Passau, our very own msg start-up and an innovation lab to promote the very latest generation of innovation.
Our offices are comfortable and offer a pleasant work environment. We have a large training and meeting center at our disposal for both internal and external meetings. Lunch breaks can be enjoyed in our in-house bistro, which offers a wide variety of options, or in our employee kitchen, where employees can savor their own lunches. We have also been known to take quick breaks for foosball or darts – but don’t tell anyone! And then there is our rooftop terrace with its spectacular view of the city, where we sometimes grill in summer or host department and team events.
However, what we Passauers really appreciate is the relaxed work environment, the respectful and friendly way in which we interact with one another and the many shared activities outside of work, whether our msg soccer team, the msg runner’s group or even Alpine rock climbing. We also have a traditional summer festival for families and ring out the year with a joyful holiday party in December.
Our office building is located near the confluence of the Donau, Inn and Ilz rivers and is close to the city center, train station and bus station. Passau is a university city and is considered a cultural center in this region and has a history that goes back 2,000 years. Passau in an international hub in the border triangle between Bavaria, the Czech Republic and Austria, and is well-connected to major European centers of commerce. The University of Passau’s logo is “Study where Others Vacation!” and it is only a small step to “Work where Others Vacation!”
