What surprised me most about working at Greenbuddies was the friendly team and the atmosphere. Across the company, through all positions and departments, there is a willingness to help each other and work as a team. Despite the current size of the company, Greenbuddies still retains elements of a start-up, and it shows positively in the company culture.

- What do you find most challenging about your job?
As the person responsible for the operation of the company offices, IT equipment, and the car fleet, I try to deal with any problems that arise promptly and, at the same time, keep a good mood as much as possible. Every day is different, and a person in this position is guaranteed not to get bored. As our team grows, so does the agenda. I really appreciate my job for its variety and contact with people.
- What has surprised you most about working with Greenbuddies?
I joined the Greenbuddies team at the very beginning of 2018, and I have to admit that I still enjoy the positive and active spirit of the company. Comparing my experience with other companies I have worked for, the friendly and inspiring mood in the company is really exceptional and motivates people to do their job selflessly.
- As a part of the PV team, what sorts of trends do you see?
Thanks to the overall emphasis on the promotion of renewable sources, there is also a change in the view of the whole segment within the Czech Republic. It is great that we can be part of this wave and finally implement installations at home in the Czech Republic to help the economy. In addition to large-scale units, there has been a huge increase in interest in small-scale installations on private homes and apartment blocks, which will allow more players in our sector to get involved.
