Summer came in June in its sultry sunny manner. This meant we could spend more time outside and enjoy the weather together! This has made June a great month for team-building activities, conferences, and company picnics. It doesn’t stop there! We were also recognized as a socially responsible company and won the CSR Initiative Award of the Year by AIBEST. On a more personal note, I was invited to speak at a panel about work-life balance. Watch the video and keep on reading for the full recap:
- At SiteGround each team receives its own dedicated (and pretty generous) budget for team-building. That boosts collaboration and team spirit, and for some teams working from multiple locations, gives the opportunity to spend quality time together in person.
- We believe that attending conferences and trainings with renowned lecturers contributes to expanding our knowledge and network. That’s why we encourage our teams to attend such all across Europe and abroad. Here’s where we were in June:
- Collision Conference in Toronto, Canada
- WeAreDevelopers World Congress in Berlin, Germany
- Online Advertising Conference in Sofia, Bulgaria
- European Conference on Networks and Communications (EuCNC) and the 6G Summit in Grenoble, France
- BrandMinds in Bucharest, Romania
- HashiConf Europe in Amsterdam, The Netherlands
- We were also shared best practices and met with stakeholders at events we support:
- WordCamp Europe in Porto, Portugal
- Ratio Forum in Sofia, Bulgaria
- Work-life balance panel for working parents hosted by The Recursive
- We were recognized (again) as a Top Employer by the Career Show Index
- SiteGround won the CSR Initiative Award of the Year by AIBEST
- And, of course, the nice weather meant that we could host picnics for our employees and their families in Sofia, Plovdiv, and Stara Zagora. So we did! In addition, we went on a short hike to burn off the calories from the delicious food the company provided
- Оur skillful footballers took part in the Concordia charity football tournament
- We also went to take care of the trees we planted in May – they are doing great – growing just like we are!
Although the next two months include time off for many of us, we have a lot of great stuff planned for our employees. Stay tuned for more and make sure to check opportunities to join our team at careers.siteground.com
