What makes a company a great place to work

Care. That is the answer.

Care for his employees, for the community, for the environment, for all these “little” things that goes beside doing only revenue and pure profit.

A week ago, suddenly, Bill (Navarik founder) went outside his office and said he has to announce something. I was thinking perhaps about the future plans and so on. But no, he stopped and pointed to Shayna, our office manager who was coming with two big green boxes directly to the desk where Yiting and I was standing.
To make it short: each of use got a nice - Canadian branded - hoodie and a small box of (Canadian) donuts :) And the the colleagues sang us “O Canada!” the anthem.

It was unexpected, I was impressed.

Yiting and Lucian

I have more than 4 years here, and I still continue to discover this things I used to forget: not the places matter, but the people who are living there. And companies are the same.
