Life at Logitech

Logitech is the sweet spot for people passionate about products, making a mark, and having fun doing it. As a company, we’re small and flexible enough for every person to take initiative and make things happen. But we’re big enough in our portfolio, and reach, for those actions to have a global impact. That’s a pretty sweet spot; we always strive to keep it that way.

Across Logitech, we empower collaboration and foster play. We help teams collaborate/learn from anywhere without compromising on productivity or continuity, so it should be no surprise that most of our jobs are open to work from home from most locations. Our hybrid work model allows some employees to work remotely while others work on-premises. Within this structure, teams or departments may split between working remotely and in-house. 

Logitech is a fantastic workplace because it is full of authentic people who are inclusive by nature and design. Being a global company, we value our diversity and celebrate all our differences. Don’t meet every single requirement? Not a problem. If you feel you are the right candidate, we strongly recommend you apply. We want to meet you!

We offer comprehensive and competitive benefits packages and working environments designed to be flexible and help you care for yourself and your loved ones, now and in the future.

Logitech supports a culture that encourages individuals to achieve good physical, financial, emotional, intellectual, and social well-being so we all can create, achieve and enjoy more and support our families. We can’t wait to tell you more about them. There are too many to list here, and they vary based on location.
