Summary

Memgraph, like many companies, has adapted to remote work by implementing creative strategies to maintain employee connections and morale during the COVID-19 pandemic. To replace informal in-person interactions, they introduced the Donut Slack bot for virtual coffee meetings, fostering cross-department communication and helping new employees integrate into the team. Initially, attempts at virtual lunches were unsuccessful due to employees' preferences for spending lunchtime with family, leading to a revised approach of quarterly company-wide virtual lunches and team-specific meal budgets for flexible virtual or in-person gatherings. Additionally, Memgraph hosts "Social Quarantine" sessions, blending happy hour with knowledge-sharing on various topics, which have included presentations on feedback and productivity. As the situation improves, the Memgraph team is cautiously resuming in-person gatherings, emphasizing the value of face-to-face interactions.
