We always appreciate past and current employees sharing their experience here on Glassdoor. We’re all sorry to hear that this is what you took away from your experience at Liquid, though, as it’s certainly not reflective of others’ experiences or the experience we work every day to give employees and clients. I’ve worked at Liquid for over 6 years now and asked for the opportunity to share my perspective with you and others on this channel.
I love when I have the chance to talk about Liquid’s people and culture in interviews and with groups of high school and college students. Liquid’s culture is built around celebrating launches and giving kudos. Every day is full of hard work – and harder laughs. I learn something new from the dozens of subject matter experts I get to collaborate with and work alongside every day. I certainly feel similarly about how “cool” and smart my coworkers are.
Like most others, our team’s shifted to almost entirely remote work through the pandemic. Before this, employees were offered multiple work from home days throughout the months and year for added flexibility, like to be with their kids when inclement weather meant a two-hour delay. This latest shift, though, has afforded employees the opportunity to be there for kids taking virtual classes and parents who need extra support. We've not only embraced employees’ added responsibilities at home, but also invited family members to join virtual trivia, distanced happy hours, and more over these months.
On-going surveying and regular 1-2-1s ensure the executive and management teams understand what’s working for employees and what they might need more of as we continue to be remote. Regular video calls and messaging through tools like Microsoft Teams and Slack keep us all connected and coordinated.
The executive team are the hardest working members of the Liquid team. The recent transitions in leadership, with Doug Mancini becoming President and Bret Ludlow stepping into the Executive Vice President role, have been met with nothing but positivity from employees, clients, and the community – and the two are nothing short of deserving. I think it’s actually the fact that they’re family that’s laid the foundation for the encouraging culture that’s been built up here.
I very fortunately/unfortunately experienced Liquid’s support to the utmost degree when an immediate family member of mine passed away earlier this year. I was offered all of the days off I needed to be there for my own family and was so appreciative for the executive team, fellow managers, and my own team’s collective efforts in keeping projects moving and clients happy. Not a day went by when someone from the office didn’t reach out to check-in. As much as I wish mine was an isolated experience, “life happens,” and I know there’ve been countless employees over the years who’ve needed and absolutely been given the same kind of flexibility and assistance.
We certainly wish you the best of luck in all things you’re doing now and next. But I truly look forward to welcoming new members to the “Liquid family” in the coming months and years!
