I certainly agree with all the pros that you shared . . . the travel industry is “sexy”, we have some very interesting clients, and we have some of the best people in the world working at MMGY Global!!
But “wow” on the cons that you call out. I don’t know that I can respond to all those listed, but I’ll try to touch on some . . . Yes, we did make a change to our previous flexible work policy at the beginning of the year, changing from 3 flexible days in office to a hybrid work policy with 3 defined days required in the office. However, employees still have 2 days every week to work from home, or some other location, if desired. We know our teams are more connected, effective, and efficient in client delivery when we are working more consistently together in the office. Hence this decision which we believe to be the best arrangement for MMGY Global to balance meeting both business/client needs, and employee needs. We will continue to evaluate this, and make changes as needed to find the best balance for MMGY Global, which you are correct, may not appeal to everyone. We have made significant investments in new positions across the global organization over the last 1-1.5 years. We’ve significantly reduced our open/unfilled positions, and without including acquisitions, the organization headcount has increased 30%! As for mental health, our medical benefits, EAP support, and leave options are in place to help meet those needs. But if there are other requests or options to consider, then I hope the current employees will share those via our annual Engagement Survey.
I’m sorry that it seems your experience with us was less than stellar. I hope that you find a company that better meets your needs, and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
