Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. Umialik is proud of maintaining a supportive, healthy company culture that encourages our employees to take advantage of the company’s work-life balance. We believe a strong work-life balance is critical to the success of our teams and our business. We have a thoughtful and well-defined hiring policy. These policies include thoroughly reviewing the qualifications and self-awareness of the candidate in question, and promoting transparency in the hiring process, this allows for the employment of friends and relatives while avoiding the associated complex and operational issues. As an example, these policies prohibit one relative from supervising another and married couples from working together or overseeing one another’s work projects. We appreciate the opportunity to discuss your specific concerns with you, please contact Human Resources by stopping by or emailing us at HRmail@wnins.com.

Pros

Looks like Ebenezer scrooge visited this year and not Santa. There was ample money left over from all the functions we were unable to carry out the the employees should have received a cash bonus rather than a blanket and Caramel corn!

Cons

Flexible time you don't actually participate in. Ability to work remote.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We certainly care about all of our employees, and we are sorry to hear that you didn’t appreciate our efforts to celebrate the holiday season. Our Holiday Drive-Thru event was a “safe” way to see each other, share some holiday treats/gifts, and wish each other a “Happy Holiday” in person. We also extended holiday cheer by purchasing additional gifts that employees were able to select and have delivered to their homes during the holiday season. These are unique times and this year has looked different. As in past years, we will also share in the company’s success through our annual profit-sharing bonus in March. We are open to hearing more about what would make you feel cared about and encourage you to contact Human Resources to share your insights.

Thank you for recommending Umialik and taking the time to leave us a review! We’re especially happy to read your comments about our management – we strive to make all our employees feel supported. To that end, if you’re ever overwhelmed with your workload, we encourage you to reach out to your manager to discuss possible solutions. To your note about our corporate offerings, as our office continues to grow, we’ve worked to offer a variety of programs so that each employee can find something that interests them (e.g., wellbeing offerings, Social Committee events, volunteer opportunities). However, we’re always looking to improve. If you have additional suggestions or would like to discuss your review in more detail, please contact Human Resources by stopping by or emailing us at HRmail@wnins.com.
