Workplace from Meta is shutting down. Many companies are now left scrambling for alternatives. If you're affected, this situation threatens your communication and community-building efforts, impacting your workplace culture and employee engagement. But while Enterprise Social Networks are fantastic at community building, there are more elements that you can add to take your Comms efforts up a notch. Employees need more than just a sense of belonging. They need direction. They need strategic communications that align their efforts with the bigger picture. So, when you're searching for an alternative, why not rethink your goals and how you can reach them? Maybe you want to: → Drive community → Reach your frontline → Deliver critical updates All in a way that inspires your employees across channels in a focused, impactful way Then we'd recommend taking a look at (ahem...and we know we're a bit biased) Staffbase. The Staffbase Communications Cloud integrates seamlessly with Microsoft applications, offering a communications-focused intranet with more control. Even Gartner thinks we're awesome as a leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Intranet Packaged Solutions. We believe that inspired teams achieve more and that inspiration comes through communication. And that's more than just a community platform. So, effective immediately, we are offering affected customers strategic advisory and commercial support on the best-fit approach for their company. (Because one size doesn't fit all.)

Code, Bugs and Hot Tubs: Return of the Sayda Hackers 🧑💻🌲 A couple of days ago, 12 backend engineers gathered for the second edition of “Hacking in the Woods”. Now you might be wondering what on earth “Hacking in the Woods” is. It all goes back to last year, when a small group of backend developers traveled to the town of Sayda in Saxony to adress technical challenges together in a focused and relaxed environment. The goal for this year? To tackle technical debt, work on complex challenges and strengthen team bonds. But the dedicated time was more than that. It was an opportunity to break out of daily routines, work in new domains, and share knowledge with each other - all while balancing productivity with relaxation and fun. And there was something for everyone, whether it was hiking in the woods, jogging in the fresh air, sweating it out in the sauna, or taking a dip in the hot tub. 🥾🧖 Eager to join next year’s edition of Hacking in the Woods? Check out our open positions in engineering and get ready to join the Sayda Hackers 👉 https://staffba.se/3NospOq #LetsOwnIt
