Seamless and Supportive Return to Work! - UX Designer WORK180 Employee Review

Innovative and Dynamic Environment: I am part of a team that’s pushing boundaries and exploring new ways to drive gender, equity, inclusivity and innovation. Flexible Work Arrangements: 9-day fortnights and being fully remote, means I have a great work-life balance and can work from anywhere. Daily Client Interaction: I am a people person so I love engaging with clients regularly. Supportive Team: There is an impressive onboarding process and continuous support from team members. A very inclusive work culture, I have felt integrated and valued from day one. Leadership: Working with an exceptional Chief of Staff and a CEO who is committed to improvement and open to suggestions. Transparency and Communication: Regular town halls and "ask anything" sessions demonstrate a commitment to open communication, ensuring that everyone is informed and can contribute. Focus on DEI: Being in the DEI space means my work contributes to creating fairer, more inclusive workplaces, which can be highly rewarding.

These are things that some people find challenging but where I thrive. It depends on who you are and what you are searching for. I LOVE that everyday is different in my role. I LOVE that I can be challenged on how to use resources in a growing team, it is what I have always been used to. It means that everyone has a great attitude to get it done! If you aren't used to working remotely that can be hard, but WORK180 does an amazing job of keeping us all connected.

I have been working at WORK180 for two years and it’s been one of the best companies I have worked for. I have an incredibly supportive manager and fantastic talented teams where we use the latest methodology for continuous product development. The flexible working and trust I am given to get my job done I have never experienced anywhere else. Being a completely remote company allows me to have a great work-life balance that is respected and leadership also demonstrates work-life balance which I found is rare. Engagement surveys and monthly pulse check-ins are valuable and action is taken, as well I have a growth plan that I designed with my manager. There are a lot of opportunities to learn and grow. Another positive is I loved the task given during the interview process as it made me value the company more - especially as everyone goes through the some process making it a fair and unbiased process. It is rare to work for a company where everyone in the business is a high performer. I feel my ideas are asked for and valued by management regularly.

The DEI space is sometimes difficult and as a company trying to make a difference it's sometimes taxing on yourself and others, especially with trolls and hate online.
