From the Desk of Group "Samolyot": Redefining the Workweek and Boosting Productivity
Heads up! This innovative journey we're about to share isn't your average office yarn. Group "Samolyot," previously known as Samolet Plus and now rebranded as Plus Group, has shaken up the traditional 9-to-5 grind with an ingenious hybrid work schedule.
At the bustling HR confab, "Ural's HR: Cultural Code of Hiring," Igor Mostovskikh dropped a bombshell: "We've experimented with a 4-day work week. Now, we've expanded that to flexible hybrid schedules. Need to pick up your kid at kindergarten? No worries, just chat it up with your boss."
Impressed yet? They've got 7,000 employees, half of whom are working remotely full-time, part-time, or in hybrid formats. In 2023, they officially called it quits on opening new offices.
To ward off the lonely-worker blues, the crew's fostering a sense of camaraderie by bolstering lifestyle communities, sports activities, and conference calls. For top-tier talent, they're crafting an atmosphere where everyone's appreciated not just for their KPIs, but as human beings with a knack for swapping tall tales. According to Mostovskikh, this yummy mix makes employees less likely to vamoose.
But let's not forget the naysayers. Co-founder of "Knopka" Yevgeny Kobzev argued that office presence doesn't always translate to efficiency, although he's not a fan of remote work. On the other hand, Artsofte's Nikolai Adeev is against telecommuting and stresses the importance of managerial prowesse to monitor productivity and maintain focus.
