Every quarter we have All-hands meetings to talk about the team results and news.
The meeting about Etcetera spring 2022 last week started unusually, we talked about the war, how it affected our work, and team members.
More than half of our team had to leave their homes and relocate. 8 people moved abroad, and 5 more are already back in Ukraine. We hope we all will be able to go back home very soon.
2 of our guys are enlisted in the armed forces. We are immensely proud of Slava Los and Denys Svyrydov! Our prayers and donations are with you.
We have to say how extremely grateful we are for the support we’ve received from our clients. Many of them sent warm messages, and asked how they can help and support.
We are also proud that it took us only 2 weeks to get to 50% capacity. And in a month and a half, all team members were ready to work again.
Because our clients are so great, and we could bring ourselves back to work quickly enough, we didn’t lose a single ongoing contract! This is incredible considering the circumstances and shows once more how we become true partners with all our clients, and partners don’t leave each other in hard times.
Of course, we kept all the critical deadlines and ensured good communications no matter what. At the same time, some clients offered us to take time to regroup and adjust to the new conditions.
As usual, we also talked about Upwork updates, congratulated team members who had birthdays in spring, and welcomed 3 new team members. Besides, we discussed Etcetera's internal processes that help us work better and more efficiently. Check out our accomplishments on the image and thank you for being with us this challenging, but productive quarter!
