The Aber Group Response
3yWe value everyone’s opinion and act quickly on feedback we receive. To address one of your comments directly, the survey you referenced asked employees about their feelings about returning to work a couple of days per week in a hybrid model; to learn how we could strike the right balance between work from home flexibility and in-person collaboration; and to get ideas on how we could make in-office work time more valuable. Research shows and I firmly believe that there is enormous value in face-to-face collaboration. We will do a follow up survey in a month to see how our employees felt about our two day per week, in-office test. Indications from the first survey wave were that about 5% of the team wanted to work 100% remotely. In fact, the majority thought 2 days per week in the office was the right amount.
Unfortunately, without more specific information, I can’t comment on your career progression and interactions with account directors. Please reach out to me directly to discuss your concerns.
