We are living in a bizarre time. Unexpectedly, you’d agree
that COVID-19 came like a storm and has turned our lives upside down, Well, this has resulted in changing my
perspective on several things such as health, economy, employment, livelihood,
etc and when we talk about employment, the first thing to hit on our mind is –
our workplace. How can I forget my workplace, Sapient Gurgaon where I’ve lived thousands of memories to cherish?
Before COVID-19, being at work was a different ballgame
altogether as nothing bothered us apart from our regular things which needed
attention from time to time. We had no clue that a pandemic would strike and
our personal and professional lifestyle would take a hit completely.
It bothered me when I saw people losing their jobs and
returning to their hometowns as they were unable to make a living, it kills you
from within to see people who came to metros to live their dream and to provide
for their families are returning empty handed and with shattered dreams. The
only silver lining that I saw during this heartbreak was when I noticed that my
Organization, Sapient Gurgaon was doing so much for all of its employees and
reducing our stress in this difficult time.
Before the pandemic struck, my work life was very vibrant as
we used to be all over the place. Team meetings, brain-storming sessions,
presentations, seminars, and what not kept us on our toes all day long and
frankly, I used to love it but with covid-19, everything changed, and it was
quite bothering until, Sapient got back on its toes and told us that they are
with us, no matter what the situation is. Though there are no physical
gatherings now, but our schedules are not any less exciting even today and for
this, I’ll give credit the management and the leadership who have shown the way
forward to deal with this global situation. Not for once they seemed panicked
while addressing their employees, nor they ever made us feel insecured about
losing our jobs and that’s exactly what makes Sapient a great place to work!
The reason why I’m able to enjoy working from home is
because of all the support that I receive from my employer i.e. Sapient. Adding
to that, the comfort of being at home, attending team meetings in your pajamas
while sipping hot coffee is a dream that many of us wanted to live, Isn’t it?
Apart from the regular office tasks, this quarantine period
has also allowed us some quality personal and
family time that most of us were craving for from a very long time. It’s
a great way to unwind and release all the stress that had been building lately.
And when you have a fresh mind, you can definitely concentrate on a lot of
other things like developing inter-personal and professional skills. For that,
again, sapient has been organizing regular seminars and training sessions to
enhance our skill sets from time to time.
The bottom line is, there’s no denial that we are living in
a tough situation right now and everything has taken a hit due to this
unexpected disaster of a virus but you’ve got to stay positive. You need to
have a strong mind and a healthy body to fight this evil and that’s only
possible when you are at peace personally and professionally both. I have spent
more than one year at Sapient and I guess I’m eligible to say this for Sapient
that it’s a great organization to work with and my Sapient Gurgaon Feedback is so positive because I have numerous
reasons where my organization has supported and motivated me. I am really glad
that I work for such an organization that is so much more than the usual work
and daily tasks.
