Perks of the office
Next to all the things you need to know about your job, your role and TOPdesk as an employer, you probably – definitely – want to know more about the amazing building you’re going to work. We moved to the Westlandseweg 40 in 2018, so you can imagine that the ambiance is modern and happy. But what other things can you expect?
Lunch at the roof
Every day, between 11.45 h and 13.00 h you can enjoy the wonderful lunch at the 7th floor that is freshly homecooked and on the house! You can pick some delicious salads, sandwiches and a variety of hot and cold dishes. During lunch, the whole 7th floor becomes a true social hub, so it gives you the perfect opportunity to relax with your team or meet up with other colleagues. Even if you decide to bring your own lunch! Subscribe for lunch through the intranet (internal only), before 11.00 h. That way the catering staff knows beforehand how many people they can expect enjoying their servings.
On nice days you can grab your sunglasses and relocate outside to sit on the roof terrace and enjoy the sun. During chilly winter days you’ll probably enjoy sitting at long tables and chatting with all your different TOPdeskers. Or hanging out with your team and discussing those awesome weekend plans.
An apple a day...
You know what they say! An apple a day, keeps the doctor away. And we all want to feel healthy, right? Therefor there’s a variety of exotic fruits on every floor for everyone to grab.
Games at the office
Eight hours of work, half an hour lunch break, constantly in front of screens and in telephone calls… How exciting is that? If we’re being honest, no one can be productive for those hours straight. So, as you probably already read: take short breaks to relax your mind and body! Go ahead and play Mario Kart, table football or even some darts and pool.
Are you a real board-game fanatic? Occasionally there are tournaments with likeminded people that can’t get enough of family-game-night and play at the office after hours. Of course, with some beverages and pizza!
Sports and hobbies
Are you of the sporty persuasion? You’re not alone! A lot of colleagues have gathered and arranged winning teams that work out together during Monday Bootcamps or play field hockey in a competition against other local companies. What is your sporty hobby? Start your own team and play!
Are you the type that likes to go up the slopes and have fun in the snow? You’ll be very excited and happy to hear that there’s a yearly event called TOPsnow, where all enthusiast travel to the mountains to have a wonderful ski-vacation (including the legendary Apres Ski parties and an extra day off to recharge).
Take a moment to relax
Need some peace and quiet for the mind? Use the designated silence room to relax and fill up with energy. Are you feeling tensed? Luckily for you, you can register (internal only) for a relaxing chair massage or enjoy the massage chair in the Healthroom on the 5th floor. More into flexing your muscles? There are yoga-mats at the office to have a quick work-out.
Friday borrel
How can we not end with the most spectacular day of the week. After working hard for the past few days, we are happy to close our laptops and get into the weekend. Right? You head up the stairs and get into the bar on the 7th floor for some drinks and snacks. All on us, for all of you! On the first Friday of each month we gather around the big staircase and listen to smart colleagues during the TOPx. In that way we get an impression of all the cool things that are going on in all facets of the company.
Have you heard about the Newbie-borrel? That Friday-afternoon event is organized by all the new colleagues at TOPdesk and usually is a fun theme night. Just like the Christmas party, Snorrel (Movember borrel) and Summer Event. You better get ready for some dancing and karaoke!
