Be brave, stay true
This is the mantra driving our shared journey forward. At Galaxus, we’re not just about international expansion. We’re also about individual and collaborative growth.
Who we are
Our company culture at Galaxus is based on our values: we’re cooperative, innovative, piratesque, responsible and ambitious. We love clear feedback that gives everyone the chance to walk their own path, make their own mistakes, score their own major successes and develop as a result. «Grow with us. Be brave, stay authentic.» This mantra promotes transparency, strengthens our culture of openness and encourages people to exchange knowledge.
As Switzerland’s leading e-commerce platform with a team of over 3'200 employees in Switzerland, Germany and Serbia, Galaxus is conquering the world of online commerce. We’re looking for talented people who know that diversity is the key to growth and success. Being bold and unconventional isn’t just encouraged here – it’s in our DNA.

How it all started...
Our story
It's the year 2000
Sick of the high cost of gaming PCs, three friends start building their own computers. In doing so, they catch the interest of fellow PC buffs they know. Orders start flooding in and production gets moving. Why not turn this into a business? No sooner said than done. And with that, Digitec is born.
Our story
Growth and foundation of Galaxus
The company grows rapidly, going on to become Switzerland’s leading electronics supplier. In 2012, the founders take their business idea to the next level and launch Galaxus, an online department store selling all sorts of products.
Our story
Galaxus expands into the EU
Galaxus Deutschland GmbH was founded in Germany at the end of 2018 as a fully owned subsidiary of Digitec Galaxus AG. Galaxus went live in Austria in 2021, with Italy, France, Belgium and the Netherlands following suit in 2023.
Our values
Rigid hierarchies, restrictive department boundaries and paralysing bureaucracy – that’s everything we don’t stand for. We value teamwork, treat everybody as equals and are obsessed with mastering challenges efficiently and effectively. The crazier a solution seems, the keener we are. And there’s one thing we’re unbeatable at: celebrating important events and achievements with exuberant parties.
Cooperative
When it comes to offering support, our door’s always open. And we lend a hand whenever necessary. Our feedback is direct, honest and respectful and we stick to a constructive, solution-oriented approach at all times. We work actively with other teams, listen to different opinions and accept whichever argument’s the best.
Innovative
We work on increasing our knowledge on a continuous basis. We also question the status quo so that we can come up with innovative solutions. Not only do we see change as an opportunity, but we actively encourage it. We experiment with new methods, learn from them and give unusual ideas a fair chance. We’re also brave enough to share unfinished work so that we receive feedback in good time.
Piratesque
We make courageous, well-balanced decisions and involve the right people when doing so. We value honest content and uncomplicated, efficient solutions over appearances. We tackle challenges with a playful sense of ease, never taking ourselves too seriously.
Responsible
We work independently, in a disciplined way. We stick to our commitments and prioritise tasks that’ll create the most benefit for our customers, the company and the team. We communicate our mistakes openly and go out of our way to get critical feedback that’ll help us grow.
Ambitious
We drive projects forward by continuously striving for improvement, overcoming our difficulties with energy and inspiring other people. We achieve measurable results and celebrate our successes with zest and stamina.
