<\/a>Viktorija Einiut\u0117, Talent Acquisition Lead at Teltonika Networks, reveals that work-life balance remains the most important thing for employees today. This, she says, usually means having flexible working hours and not having to take work home.<\/p>\n
\u2018I would put health insurance on the side \u2013 as the queues for doctors get longer, it is important for employees to be able to get to the right specialist sooner,\u2019 says V. Einiut\u0117.<\/p>\n
She notes that with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the various constraints, when businesses were able to adapt to the challenges around them, working from home really took off, with people commuting once a week to their workplaces, and in many cases, full online working was offered. Later, V. Einiut\u0117 recalls, that other popular benefits emerged, such as workations, where workers chose to spend the winter where it was warm.<\/p>\n
\u2018Over time, however, I think both employers and employees have analysed which perks are useful. So, remote working is becoming less and less of an added benefit, and working from home is also not as popular as it used to be \u2013 people prefer to work from the office more often. Working from the office has also become a priority for companies,\u2019 shares V. Einiut\u0117, a representative of the partner company of Kauno kolegija HEI Internship and Career Days.<\/p>\n
In conclusion, she points out that fully remote work, workation, and extra vacation days have become not a given, but additional benefits, along with working from home.<\/p>\n
She adds that career opportunities have always been important to employees but now it is more often talked about by representatives of the younger generation who have entered junior positions, trying from the very beginning to paint a picture for themselves of what and where they can do in that company.<\/p>\n
\u2018Employers sometimes get scared that a person immediately wants to be a manager, although in reality the person just wants to see themselves in your company in the long term,\u2019 says V. Einiut\u0117.<\/p>\n
She reveals that the most widely used motivational tool at Teltonika Networks is a flexible work schedule, where employees can start work between 6 and 10 a.m. This, she notes, helps employees plan their work and personal time more conveniently.<\/p>\n
\u2018We also have bonus systems. All employees of the company receive health insurance, without which a modern workplace is probably unimaginable today. On birthdays, we give employees an extra day off and make sure that there are snacks when they spend time in the office, which we change according to the seasons \u2013 we have noticed that this is well received by employees. We also have a very large list of partners who apply discounts on goods, services and activities that surround us not only at work but also in our personal lives,\u2019 shares V. Einiut\u0117.<\/p>\n
