COVID-19 has thrown everyone’s normal right off of a cliff. While many companies have been work from home for months now, there may be many more months to go until we get back to the office. Cvent is still evaluating when we plan to return to our offices, but we're incredibly committed to helping our customers wherever we're working!
How has COVID-19 Affected Work from Home at Cvent?
Much like the rest of the world, we’ve spent our time on the phone and on virtual meetings to retain our workplace culture and assist our clients in these challenging times. Live team and corporate meetings have all shifted to virtual while we juggle children, family, and new distractions that didn't exist in the office. We strive to find new ways to engage employees and customers alike, hosting everything from virtual success groups to happy hours and even murder mystery parties, all while making the most of fun virtual backgrounds.
As a software company, we’re lucky to be able to retain the same level of client service at home as we can in the office. We have really enjoyed the increased sharing of video and the opportunity to get to know our customers on more of a "face-to-face" forum as a result. And while we work hard to maintain the great culture of Cvent, we certainly miss being seeing our coworkers and clients in person. For our clients and ourselves, we are eagerly awaiting the return of our normal!
