Chief HR Officer reading from a script in global town hall - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij Teads

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We agree the people at Outbrain are great. Regarding recent employee departures, as mentioned in our communication to employees, headcount reductions are the most difficult decisions we need to make as a business. Many of those leaving are close friends and colleagues who have made immense contributions to Outbrain during their time with us. We aimed to communicate this in the best way possible, both for those directly and indirectly affected. Despite the difficult circumstances, we did receive positive feedback about the process - highlighting specifically the transparency, empathy, and the overall fairness in which it was conducted and communicated. To your feedback regarding the Town Hall meeting and the announcement about moving to three days in the office, we aimed to communicate this change accurately and thoroughly. There was a lot of information to share, and we wanted to convey the importance of the topic - we did not intend for the delivery to come off as inauthentic. We believe the one extra day in the office is very important for our culture, innovation and collaboration - we would not be doing it otherwise. We have shared your feedback directly with our Chief People Officer, and she will take this feedback onboard for the future. Our responsibility to motivate and inspire is very important to us, and we will continue to work on this.
