equal pay for women and men.

It is important that women earn the same pay as men in the software engineering industry because it is a matter of fairness and equal treatment. We want more women to choose careers in technology, so we make sure our women never have to worry about this.

We believe that attracting and retaining talent from diverse groups is essential to foster creativity and innovation in the industry. By addressing wage inequality, together we can create an inclusive work environment where everyone has equal opportunities to grow and contribute to society.

the domino effect of female power.

The world needs female software engineers and we can tell! It is not only important, it is crucial that more women enter IT. Why?

Diversity leads to innovation. Women bring fresh ideas and perspectives, adding value to any team. As a female software engineer, you are like a magic ingredient that completes every recipe.

In addition, women tend to be stronger in communication and collaboration. As a female software engineer, you build bridges, not only in the code, but also between team members. By doing so, you ensure a stronger team and better results.

And let’s not forget that as a female developer, you can be a role model for other women and girls interested in technology. By showing that women can be successful in the IT world, you encourage others to also take the plunge and pursue their dreams. This is how you create a domino effect of female power in the IT sector.

flexibility is a must.

We know that flexibility and understanding are essential for happy employees. Our highly qualified female developers are often reaching a stage in life where they are looking for a better work-life balance.
That’s why we offer as much comfort as possible in this: from a comfortable place to pump, an adapted (part-time) work schedule to creating a positive and supportive work culture .

We now have many female engineers working with us, sharing experiences about working as a woman in the tech sector. We always listen to these groups and involve our female power women in many fun initiatives, such as our “She’s an IT Rockstar” steering committee.

Your contribution to the tech community.

At Team Rockstars IT, we love technology, innovation and the power of diversity. Our Women in Tech Community is a place where we encourage women to make their mark in the tech world. Whether you are a seasoned professional or just starting out, your contribution is valuable! Together we are building a vibrant and diverse Women in Tech Community!

After 4 successful ‘She is an IT Rockstar Works’ editions at our headquarters in Den Bosch, we are opening our Amsterdam office for the first time March 14 for women from the Dutch IT world. As a woman in IT, you are usually in the minority among the men on your team, we are changing that this day! Your day-to-day business this day will be done in our office with other women in IT. In between work there are inspiring Tech & Self Development sessions you can participate in. In addition, you will be completely pampered, so be surprised.

The “She is an IT Rockstar Works” event is never the same, in previous editions you could participate in Q&As with the CTO of Rituals and Dell, among others, Tech workshops/talks and personal branding & empowerment, and a veritable beauty salon emerged. Find out what we have in store this time!

Nominatie Female dinner

Which woman is a role model for you?

Which woman supports you in the form of coaching, mentorship or qualities? Which woman is your role model, and perhaps for many others? Which woman needs to be heard by the world? And what woman moves heaven and earth, even if just a little, to inspire and motivate others?

We are looking for those women! At our exclusive Female Dinner, there are limited seats for women who (unknowingly) contribute to Women in Tech. First of all, to bring together inspiring women to share knowledge, vision and experiences so that they can become even more successful themselves. Second, because we want to provide a platform for these women to have their voices heard. The goal? Together we make more impact to strengthen partnerships, create a great work environment, as well as a more balanced balance of diversity in IT teams.
