A professional family

As a family company, we believe in looking after our people.

A professional family

That has been our approach since our earliest days, when our founder, Albert Boehringer, provided his workers with health insurance, paid holidays, pensions, and subsidized housing. Boehringer Ingelheim is now owned by the fourth generation of the same family, and Great-Grandfather Albert would be pleased to see that we still understand that, if the family is the company, the company is family. 

We still prioritize the personal approach, seeing differences as strengths - and, because we think not just about today but about generations yet to come, we focus on the long term: long-term business goals, long-term investment, and the long-term development of our people.

We understand the importance of family life, too, which is why we value things like work-life balance, flexible hours, and well-planned remote working options. 

And we recognize that life may not always be as simple as we hope, so we offer support for health and wellbeing, financial issues, relocation, and more – because our people should be able to think Life Forward, too.
