The past two years of the pandemic have had a significant impact on workers’ mental health, with many quitting due to stress and burnout and others experiencing a shift in their work-life expectations and a desire to be heard in the workplace.
Today, jobseekers are more mindful than ever of the importance of a company’s culture, values and willingness to hear out feedback from all employees – even junior ones.
Micron Singapore, a provider of innovative memory and storage solutions, makes it a point to reach out to its junior employees and listen to their needs. Last year, the company was ranked sixth in the Singapore Best Workplaces 2021 and certified as A Great Place to Work. At least 91 per cent of its employees reported feeling welcomed in the workplace and having a sense of accomplishment and pride in their work.
