Swiss Residents & Voters - Experiences With Decentralised Government

Researching democracy in der Schweiz Hey! I‘m a writer and researcher from Liverpool, currently based in Germany. I‘m working on a piece about Switzerland‘s decentralised political system, and hoping to speak to locals about their experiences. I‘m interested particularly in exploring the components of the system that has made Switzerland a global leader in many areas, but also investigate the weaknesses it has. The UK- and my hometown- is undergoing a process of decentralisation that this research will contribute to. I‘d love to hear from a range of perspectives on this topic, so please let me know your thoughts :)

Chefs in German Fine-Dining & Michelin Kitchens - Working Conditions

[Mod-approved] German public broadcaster (ARD) researching working conditions in fine-dining & Michelin-star kitchens – looking to hear from chefs Hi r/Chefit, I spoke with the mod team beforehand and they kindly made an exception to the no-research rule for this post – thanks to them for that. I'm Hannah, a journalist working for ARD, Germany's public broadcaster. We're researching working conditions in German fine-dining and Michelin-level kitchens: hours, pay, hierarchy and the culture on the pass, the "passion as payment" trade-off, and where the line between hard work and abuse gets crossed. Even though the focus is Germany, I know many chefs here have worked across borders or have a clear read on the industry, so I'd genuinely value hearing from you – whether you've worked in German kitchens or want to share your experience from neighbouring countries (Austria, Switzerland etc). What I'm looking for: people who've worked in fine-dining/Michelin star kitchens and are willing to share their experience: on the record, on background, or fully anonymous, whatever you're comfortable with. No obligation to appear on camera. How to reach me: share your experiences here in the comments or contact me privately at [email redacted]. I'm happy to verify who I am first and send you a copy of my press card or an email from my official editorial address. Source protection is taken seriously, and nothing gets used without your consent.

Lucerne & Zurich Founders & Execs - Content Shoots

As Head of Partnerships at a 100% remote company, I talk to all our clients. But I've met very few of them in person. This week I'm changing that with 10+ physical meetings and content shoots across Switzerland. This is my first Tour de Suisse. Marvin Sanginés goes to Switzerland once per quarter to meet our notus Partners. Sometimes Luca Wetzel joins. Sometimes he goes alone. This time, Vicktoria Klich and I are joining him for 10+ physical meetings and content shoots with our notus Partners across Lucerne and Zurich. notus is 100% remote. As Head of Partnerships, I've had calls with literally all our clients. I know how cool they are. I had great conversations, great energy over Google Meet. But I've only met a few of them in person. That's the part I'm most looking forward to. A Google Meet with an agenda is effective. It gets things done. But two hours with someone in person without an agenda gives the space for conversations that you can't schedule. That's how you build a relationship. That's why we're making this trip. Coming back to Switzerland also just feels like coming home. I lived in Zurich on and off as a consultant, and my long-term plan is to live there. So there's that layer too. Very excited and looking forward to it. P.S. We're also looking to interview Swiss industry-leading founders and execs while we're here. If you know someone who fits, tag them below or shoot me a DM.

Finishing Shop Input on PGM Tariffs for Finishing and Coating

I'm looking for some input from finishing shops: I am working on an article about how recent tariff actions and volatility in platinum-group metals through the supply chain may be affecting your shop’s operations. I have had several finishing operations ask me about this situation, and I thought it would make for an article for readers. For example, I understand that PGM products from Switzerland are subject to a 39% tariff, EU shipments are at 15%, and Japan at 15%. If you're willing to share your feedback, I would greatly appreciate it. Email me at [email redacted] if you would like to discuss this issue. #finishingandcoating #finishing #coating #surfacefinishing
