Our team’s wide range of holiday traditions brings all kinds of joy to EarnIn. But it’s also what we find in common that keeps our team growing stronger and stronger, year after year. And what’s more universal than a good board game? Estefania Betanzos, EarnIn Software Engineer, shares what her holidays look like in Mexico… What are some of your favorite holiday traditions? On Christmas Eve, after dinner, my family sometimes spends the night playing board games until the afternoon of the next day. I have many good memories about those nights. I always take walks in the middle of the night too, and in December, all the streets and houses are decorated with pretty lights. Looking at them I feel like I’m heading to a new year, where everything is fresh again. I also love the holiday fruit punch we make in Mexico. In the spirit of the holidays, what’s a recent moment at EarnIn that gave you a strong sense of inclusion or belonging? When it was our anniversary event, EarnIn went above and beyond to bring everyone together, no matter what part of the world we’re in. Even if I’m a remote employee, I feel like I belong at EarnIn the same way as everyone else.   Why did you decide to join EarnIn? When I researched the company, I realized they have a high-quality product that aims to help people improve their financial health. That ‘s a mission that resonated with me, then my interviewing process was very smooth, and all the people are very smart, so why wouldn’t I join? We can’t think of a single reason, Estefania.

🎉 Happy International Day of Happiness! Today's a great day to reflect on what keeps us joyful at work. When I joined Spryker almost seven years ago, I wasn't sure if I enjoyed employment. Until then, I had always been self-employed. How would reporting to a manager like Boris or Edmund feel? Looking back, that was probably one of the best choices of my life. Here is why. 🚀 Creating a product like Spryker establishes a legacy bigger than anybody can achieve alone. 🤘 Building a team of great people like Niko, Karl, Christoph, and Jennifer (and all SEs I haven't mentioned!) fills me with pride and elation. 🧑🎨 Working beside inspiring people like Alexander, Fabian, Sophie, and Elena teaches you new things daily. ⚽️ Thanks to Elise and her FLOW method, I can combine work with family and hobbies outside of work. 💶 Money is still important. But I won't complain about my salary either. 🤷♂️ Let's be honest: Work is about more than just fun. It can be challenging and exhausting at times. But without reward, what's the point? So, was it the right decision? Yes. Would I do it again? Absolutely. How about you? What makes you happy about your work? Tell me in the comments.

working on Sundays is a part of the job in finance industry during closing time. But if there are festivals ahead atleast at that time employees deserve leaves. In few places forget about the leaves, employees are not even getting sunday weekoffs. Companies should understand that completion of targets is important but employees have families and rituals to follow Even customers do not entertain much during festivals. So, why companies are wasting the time and efforts of the employees. Festivals are meant to spread happiness around, but without families festivals are not at all happy for anyone. However, legally too atleast one week off should be provided to employees. #finance #homefinance #jobculture

A Morning in the Life of Someone Starting Their Career I begin my day at 4 a.m., preparing to drive for Uber. By 4:30 a.m., I'm usually out the door and on the road. Within the first five minutes, I typically pick up my first passenger, often heading to the airport. I love driving in the early morning. The low traffic and the beauty of the sunrise make it a peaceful time. Around 6-6:30 a.m., as the initial rush dies down, I find a spot in the middle of town to await requests. During this brief lull, I make productive use of my time. I sit down and apply for jobs, aiming to submit applications to 5-10 positions within this 30-minute window. Additionally, I use LinkedIn to connect with and message individuals at the companies I am applying to, enhancing my professional network. Requests pick up again around 6:30 a.m., with riders heading to morning gym classes, run clubs, or catching flights. As the morning rush begins, I take the opportunity to connect with my passengers. I ask them about their work, and people love to share their career stories. These conversations are not only interesting but also help me build my network. To facilitate these connections, I use a digital business card that passengers can scan via a QR code or click a link. It contains all my contact information and allows them to schedule a 15-minute conversation to discuss career options or their own career paths further. Throughout the morning, I encounter 10-20 people, from airport travelers to morning runners to professionals heading to work. This diverse range of interactions offers excellent practice in cold calling and networking, helping me improve my communication skills and expand my rolodex. I usually wrap up my driving around 10-11 a.m. when the morning traffic subsides. Once home, I take my pup for a walk and then have lunch. I spend the afternoon finishing job applications and trying to connect with more people from the companies where I’ve applied. If you know anyone or any opportunities in sales would love to connect! #CareerJourney #MorningRoutine #JobHunt #UberDriver #Networking #Sunrise #ProfessionalGrowth #JobSearchTips #EarlyBird #CareerGoals #LinkedInNetworking #ProductiveMorning #CareerDevelopment #JobSeeker #DailyHustle

NNBC Employee Spotlight! Kiana Castro has been greeting customers, vendors, and employees at the front office at NNBC for 21 years. She's the first voice you hear when calling into NNBC and the first smiling face you see if you come in for a visit. Her laugh is infectious and we always enjoy how she keeps us all smiling everyday. We asked Kiana a few questions so you too can get to know the voice so many of you talk to so often. 1. What do you enjoy about your role? I enjoy answering incoming calls and welcoming guest to NNBC. I'm able to assist and help people while getting to know them.        2. What is your favorite NNBC product, and how do you use it? It would be our Phenolic Brush Applicator - Stop the Bite! Stop Nail Biting I had a bad habit of biting my nails and cuticles and this worked for me.   3. What is the best advice you can give someone who has just started their career? Don't feel pressured to know it all in a day, week, or month, work at your own pace and take notes to understand the process. If you make a mistake it's okay, it's fixable….Woosa :)   4. What was the first gig/live music event you went to? 1999 Jay-Z & DMX in Philadelphia.   5. What is a dream vacation like for you? Traveling with the people you love and making memories. 

It’s okay to find some time to decompress during the day. I forced myself to leave my desk today. I’ve been glued to my desk the few weeks. I’ve been working late late to ensure work doesn’t eat into time with my kids, which means I’m back at my desk after bedtime. I was looking at my calendar this week, and I knew I needed a minute. We had an All Hands meeting this morning, I snuck away, joined on my phone & listened while getting a pedicure. 💅 My work didn’t suffer, but I took a little time for me. I’m back at my desk and crushing tasks. If you need a reminder, here it is. Take break! Find an opportunity to step away. I do fully support 100% unplugged away time, I just didn’t have that today in my schedule, but I found something that worked for me. How do you find time during the day for you? I definitely need to get better at it. Share below👇 #timeaway #takeabreak #salesengineer #presales #salesleaders #techsales #saassales #solutionsengineer #wise #metime #womeninsales

Hi all, 🌐 I hope this post finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to share some thoughts on something that's often overlooked but is incredibly important - the value of time off from work. 🕰️🌴 As many of you know, I am passionate about my role as an Account Manager at GroupNexus. I love what I do, and I'm grateful for the opportunities I have to work with such amazing clients every day. ✨💼 However, even with all the love I have for my job, I've come to realize the importance of taking a step back, unplugging, and allowing myself to recharge. It's not just about avoiding burnout; it's about ensuring that I can bring the best version of myself to the table for my clients. 🚀 Time off is not a luxury, it's a necessity. It's a chance to refresh, rest, and refocus. It's during these breaks that I find new perspectives, rekindle my creativity, and return to work with renewed energy and commitment. 🌟 So, here's to embracing the importance of time off, and to coming back stronger, more focused, and more inspired than ever before. Remember, taking care of ourselves is not a selfish act, it's an essential one. 🙌 #TimeOff #WorkLifeBalance #SelfCare #AccountManager

30,734 kilometers in a month. That's the mileage I flew in just a month. It's a milestone as I haven't had marathon flying for more than a decade. I must admit it's enervating yet exciting. Exciting because every kick-off is different. In Asia, we say "same-same but different"! It's East-meets-West energy, innovation, and collaboration set against the backdrop of vibrant cultures and dynamic markets. Haworth, being a global leader in workspace solutions, surely knows how to craft a memorable kick-off experience tailored to the diverse needs and aspirations of our Asia Pacific teams from countries like Australia, China, India, Japan, Singapore, and beyond. It's wrapped up now, and I conclude with three letters: I.C.E. I = Inspiration. No Haworth kick-off would be complete without a healthy dose of inspiration. Truly blessed with so many speakers from within and from our partners to share their insights and vision for the future of work. C = Celebration. Of course! Recognizing top performers, commemorating major milestones, honoring long-serving team members, or simply sharing a meal together, Haworth kick-offs in Asia Pacific always have a festive vibe. From traditional dances to modern music, from local delicacies to global cuisines, from classroom settings to trekking in nature, these celebrations reflect the rich tapestry of cultures that make up the Haworth family. E = Engagement. In a region as diverse as Asia Pacific, engagement is key to unlocking the full potential of teams. Especially in today's hybrid workplace environment, coupled with newcomers like myself, I am grateful and thankful to be part of this kick-off as an introduction to the team, especially those whom I've not met in person. So, there you have it—kick-offs! The whistle of a grand race, fueled with anticipation and excitement/engagement, ready to charge ahead. Together, let's make it happen! 🥂 p.s. Thank you to you. To my team mates (too many of you to be named here) behind the scene in making sure all is taken care off. And, its an awesome kick-off because of your sleepless night 😘 #kickOffs #workplaceculture #Salesculture
