Engineering simulation business Ansys has a relatively modest workforce of 1,877 employees across Europe, each one of them is eligible to work remotely or in a hybrid setup if they choose to do so. Spotting and enabling top talent is a priority, with university programs selecting a group of students each year to work directly with the company's software products and experts—the company has a target to convert 40% of internships into employment with Ansys. Self-organized employee groups such as the Black Employee Network, (dis)Ability Network and Pride Alliance are allocated resources to drive change, while Ansys supports future female engineers through philanthropic activities, volunteering, scholarships and STEM initiatives like Girls Who Code.
