No. 1 in the national ranking for specialist media
In the latest national ranking “The Best Employers in the Media Industry 2026”, Vogel IT-Medien (VIT), part of Vogel Communications Group (VCG), has taken first place in the “specialist media” category. The neutral and independent ranking, published by kress pro, a specialist media brand for the media industry, is based on data from Europe’s largest employer review platform, kununu.com.
Since 2019, kress pro has published the employer ranking for the eighth time, with a different focus each year. Kununu calculates a recommendation rate (“Would you recommend this employer?”) as well as a Kununu score. Users rate employers on a scale from one star (“very poor”) to five stars (“very good”). The average of these ratings is then used to compile the Kress ranking.
VIT Managing Director Tobias Teske comments: “Our motto ‘IT’s a people business’ applies to our employees too: we put people at the centre. Everyone has the opportunity to play an active part. Opinions may differ and discussions may occasionally arise – nevertheless, we always come back together. Long-serving employees and experienced team leaders are particularly valuable in economically uncertain times such as these, as they bring a wealth of experience from their careers and provide others with a sense of security.”
“Our warmest congratulations from everyone at Vogel Communications Group go to Augsburg,” says VCG CEO Matthias Bauer: “You can always sense it: you are closely connected to an innovative industry while also being a highly dynamic team!”
