SOFTSWISS went big when holding its traditional global team meetup in Dubai. Over 1,000 IT specialists with diverse cultural backgrounds came together to spend four days in Dubai, the famed city of skyscrapers.
The company’s offices are located in three European countries, namely, Poland, Georgia and Malta. However, its employees work remotely from all over the world. Cyprus, Turkey, Malta, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, the Netherlands and the Philippines are only a few countries that are currently home to SOFTSWISS’ talents.
The company has a well-established remote work system that facilitates everyday online communication between employees. Therefore, live team meetups like this are a unique opportunity to meet in person, talk to colleagues, and share concerns with the management. Still, the main purpose of the annual meetups is to exchange positive emotions despite the overall global agenda.
During these four days, the teams had a chance to enjoy live communication, participate in active team-building events, get to know the city on guided tours, visit the desert, and even go on a splendid yacht trip. But most importantly, they were able to talk to their colleagues, not to their avatars that represent them during online meetings.
Among all other things, the event featured an informal meeting with the management and the founder of the group of companies, Ivan Montik. This is one of the core principles behind SOFTSWISS’ work: anyone can have an open and sincere conversation with the management, ask all sorts of questions, share opinions and advice, as well as discuss matters of concern.
The gathering culminated in a grand gala dinner at the foot of the Burj Khalifa, fired by ‘SOFTSWISS Stars’, a real talent show, and a set by a popular DJ. SOFTSWISS’ developers, analysts, managers, designers and other employees, together with the production director, had invested several months into rehearsals to get ready for this on-stage performance in front of their colleagues and show their talent.
