Keeping employees motivated, especially during work from home, is a task. The on-going pandemic has dimmed everyone’s will to work. However, most companies have taken the necessary steps to keep their employees’ happiness intact.

“We are a family here,” says Pranati, the HR head at GlowRoad. She believes that giving the employees their freedom is a needed stepping-stone in their growth at the workplace. Being a start-up company, they kept their foundation strong even when their employees were stuck at home.

Only focusing on work is not GlowRoad’s mantra. They want their employees to maintain a good work-life balance and enjoy their work. The best way to have fun while working is hosting various engaging tournaments online and around the office.
