“Work–Life Bal­ance in Fin­land Is the Best in the World” – Inside Visidon

From day one, Visidon has grown on the idea that peo­ple are sim­ply peo­ple. What mat­ters most is the pas­sion, skills, and curios­i­ty each team mem­ber brings – not where they come from. Watch the video to see what every­day work cul­ture is like at Visidon.

Found­ed as a spin off from the Uni­ver­si­ty of Oulu, Visidon has grown into an inter­na­tion­al team devel­op­ing advanced image and video enhance­ment algo­rithms for devices rang­ing from mobile phones to drones.

At Visidon, peo­ple are val­ued for their skills, curios­i­ty, and con­tri­bu­tion to the com­mu­ni­ty – not for where they come from.

– Mul­ti­cul­tur­al­ism fresh­ens up our work com­mu­ni­ty and gives us a great advan­tage in our dai­ly work, says Sami Töyrylä, Head of Peo­ple and Cul­ture.

Col­leagues often describe Visidon as friend­ly, open, and sup­port­ive – a work­place where any­one can ask, learn, and col­lab­o­rate regard­less of back­ground or role.

Finnish work–life bal­ance is also at the core of Visidon’s cul­ture, says Moham­mad Tavako­lian, Senior Machine Learn­ing Engi­neer.

When the work­day ends, employ­ees can tru­ly dis­con­nect, recharge, and enjoy gen­er­ous hol­i­days that strength­en well­be­ing.

– When­ev­er I fin­ish my work dur­ing the day, I just close my email, my chats and I can focus on my per­son­al activ­i­ty and my dai­ly life rou­tine, Moham­mad Tavako­lian men­tions.

Visidon is proud of the com­mu­ni­ty they’ve built – and the peo­ple who make it thrive. Visidon was rec­og­nized as Oulu’s Most Inter­na­tion­al Employ­er of 2025.
