Hi Mounika, I've personally found working from home really helpful, but it can get lonely from time to time. However, I love that I can pick up the phone to anyone in my team for a quick coffee break and chat :)

I agree with Samuel. Working from home works for me as it allows me to work away from the office, facilitating being closer to family

Hi Samuel, thanks for answering it and I do it sometimes too like I will schedule a virtual 1:1 coffee with the team members and it feels good while doing WFH.

It is really easy to be caught up on the next project, or urgent task, or internal program, etc so it is really important that we build since day 1, the awareness that we need to rest and stop, in order to be healthy and even more productive next day. For me is about setting boundaries with myself, and plan my day, give my best and knowing that "tomorrow" will be there to continue giving my best :)

The pandemic challenged the paradigm of work-life balance. We encourage all our colleagues to practice healthy work-life balances. In reality it has peaks and troughs but empowerment and flexibility are key.

As i don't work from my home country, for me having the opportunity to use our 'workwide' scheme has been key. It let's me visit friends and family and combine holidays and work.
