HelloFresh’s Post

This is me at 18 years old when I moved to Sydney 🇦🇺 I always knew I wanted to be a business owner but I had no idea how to get there. I thought the only way to find out was to get out of my comfort zone and move to the other side of the world. I worked some of the worst jobs... - Door to door selling Hellofresh (commission only) - Stopping people on their way to work to sponsor guide dogs (commission only) - General labouring One of my biggest lessons whilst labouring on a building site was from all my site managers. Imagine an extremely rude Australian building site manager. Whatever you have in your head, think worse 🤣 I had several of these. These guys treated us like dirt. I made a promise to myself then and there. When I become a business owner I'm going to put extra work in to building a strong team and be extremely proud of the culture I build. Fast forward 6 years and I couldn't be prouder of my team. They're all A players, have each others back and always have a good time. Building a company can be lonely but when you have a great team around you it makes the world of a difference. Appreciate you Daris Benallal, Jay Brackenbury, Shreya La Cock & Craig Dewart. P.s we're in the process of growing the team 🚀 #business | #seo | #culture | #team

Do people think free booze and samosas at the office are perks? They must be delusional about what keeps employees engaged! So, a friend was raving about her new job the other day, practically frothing at the mouth about the "amazing perks." She said her office provided free beer every Friday and unlimited chai and samosas every other day! I told her that free booze and artery-clogging snacks aren't impressive; they're insulting. My ideal work environment doesn't involve a sugar crash at 3 pm or needing a nap after "Casual Fridays." I want to be paid to deliver results, not to gain weight and develop a dependence on junk food. A good company should invest in creating a collaborative space with energetic minds, not a sugar-fueled haze. Focus on building a culture of productivity, not one of empty calories. The reward for my work must be my paycheck, not an order of cheese-burst pizza from Domino's. The best perk you can offer is the chance to see my work contribute to the company's growth and my own professional development. Everything else – the "free" food and "fun" activities – is just fluff. What truly motivates and retains top talent? It's the opportunity to do meaningful work, to be surrounded by bright minds, and to contribute to something bigger than ourselves. That's the recipe for a great work environment, not a bottomless basket of McDonalds burgers and fries. #OfficeLife #Perks #JustSayNo

The Secret Sauce of Payzli's Success: Thursday Team Lunches!🍽️ Ever wondered about the secret behind Payzli's thriving work culture? Well, it's our time-honored tradition of Thursday team lunches, a ritual we embrace as our weekly grand feast of ideas and camaraderie. 🎉 Every week, no matter who you are in the organization - be it a seasoned founder or an eager trainee - we all gather around a banquet of culinary delights. We take off our professional hats and relish our common bonds far beyond the realms of our workstations. 🏢 These aren't just any ordinary lunches - they're a vibrant symphony of laughter, brainstorming sessions, and collective celebrations. We are not just colleagues at these gatherings but storytellers, thought-sharers, and dream weavers. Each voice rings with equal importance; each idea is acknowledged with equal respect in our rich tapestry of inclusivity. 💬 And here's the best part - our Thursday feasts aren't just about relishing tantalizing cuisines; they are a catalyst for our creativity. As we indulge our taste buds, we let our minds wander to the contours of innovation that keep our company at the cutting edge. Simple yet profound, these lunches often prove to be the breeding grounds for our most remarkable breakthroughs.💡🌱 But the echoes of our Thursday lunches go beyond just a hearty meal. They manifest in the spirit of collaboration and the electrifying energy in our daily operations. These moments of shared kinship serve as our organizational lifeblood, propelling us toward excellence one Thursday at a time. Needless to say, people wait all week for Thursday... So, what's cooking at your organization? Would love to hear all the unique ideas that separate your company from the rest of the pack... #PayzliCulture #FridayLunches #ConnectionAndInnovation #WorkplaceEmpathy #TogetherWeThrive

🚨 I have found THE BEST company #benefit EVER🚨 On an introductory meeting with a potential new client this morning and in the course of the chat it cropped up that they had a God-tier company benefit. Forget your "Pizza Fri-yays 🍕" and bean bags - this team gives their employees a Christmas turkey 🦃 (or equivalent meat/veggie/vegan option) every year. Mind blown 🤗 What's more, they didn't even think this was a big deal. But imagine how much that means to their employees? Christmas can be an incredibly expensive time for people so by providing a centre piece for the big meal of the day you're taking some of that stress away, benefitting not just the employee but their entire family. #hiringmanagers #internaltalent and #HR people - that's what you're aiming for with company benefits. Real, tangible improvements to your teams lives, not just stuff that looks good on LinkedIn. #recruitment #retention #EVP

🍲 Grateful for the Little Things: Quality Meals, Big Impact 🌟 Reflecting on workplace nuances, I've come to appreciate the significance of good food for employee well-being. Whether it's the comfort of a cafeteria or the joy of a quality meal, these seemingly small details play a big role in our day. Today, a shout-out to companies that focus on providing not just sustenance but a genuine dining experience. It's a humble yet impactful gesture that resonates with employee contentment, making every workday a bit brighter. 🍽️💼 #EmployeeWellbeing #WorkplaceGratitude #QualityMealsMatter 🚀 #OfficeCulture #EmployeeExperience #WorkplaceWellness #FoodInOffice #TeamHappiness #CompanyCulture #WorkLifeBalance #EmployeeEngagement #WorkplaceJoy #GratefulAtWork #HealthyWorkplace #OfficePerks #LunchtimeVibes #WorkplaceAppreciation #NourishYourTea 🍴

The 40-hour work week has swelled to be "comically large," especially for management and other salaried positions. What if you went to a pizza shop, and the only thing they were serving was a giant, 30-inch pizza? No personal pan pizzas. No modest 12" to share with a friend. Add a 2-inch crust (I mean, commute), and job consumers are like.... "no way... I can't stomach that." I'd rather go hungry. Workers continue to prioritize mental health and well being, work-life balance, and agency. And so people are opting out of full time work. Especially those with a lot already on their plates. Companies that only offer full-time positions are going to find themselves with fewer customers... Yes, you heard that right. Job candidates are customers. And they are eyeing the size of that pizza pie (and what it costs), and passing. Job flexibility is the way of the future. Innovate. #qualityjobs #worklifebalance #recruitment #talentacquisition #pizza #workforceinnovation #talentstrategy https://lnkd.in/eWK-g9jT

Convenience is a driving factor for just about everything. ◽ Many businesses adapted by offering more to-go options and meal kits. Some even added drive-thrus to increase flexibility. 🟠 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐧𝐨𝐫𝐦 ◽ DoorDash and Uber Eats saw a rise in popularity when restaurants had to eliminate dine-in availability. ◽ Delivery is still a difficult option for most businesses to factor into profitability. Some only have delivery available during non-busy hours. 🟠 𝐋𝐨𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐉𝐨𝐛 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 ◽ During the pandemic, many workers were laid off, and many changed careers while waiting. Now, restaurants have job openings that remain unfilled. ◽ Some restaurants removed tipping and instituted higher hourly wages instead in an effort to attract industry talent.

How did your business adapt to survive the changing times? 🧡 𝐇𝐚𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐧𝐨𝐰?
