Happy Hours
I was happy to see an email from our HR Team about conducting fun activities i.e Happy hour. As we were lost in our regular office works as well as the pandemic situation wasn’t letting us think of any such, but thanks to our HR team they came up with such innovative thought by organizing fun activities while we were exhausted in our work from home setup.
One more best thing that helped us to keep an eye on our health was the bi-weekly virtual workout sessions. Every session we used to have such an amazing exercise that I didn’t want to miss any of these sessions. My sincere thanks to all our trainers for taking care of our fitness by training us with simple and effective exercises which we cannot forget and will try our best to continue the same and challenge ourselves to stretch our limits.

#EachForEqual – “There is no limit to what we, as Women can accomplish”.
Women’s Day was celebrated with all the power-packed Women in Odysseus, it was an amazing feeling of Oneness. We loved an inspiring session on “Lady – You are the Boss” which everyone felt was a marvelous part of such a strong group of women around. We had an amazing experience which was empowering full of love, strength, and a positive vibe.

Hackathon
I would like to thank “Odysseus” for making last weekend of January 2020 so much different, fun, exciting, full of creativity and innovation.
Hackathon is always fantastic to push you and your team to the limits and prove to yourself what you are truly capable of. It was an amazing experience for us as a team. The task we chose, really inspired our team to try out new approaches and solutions which our company will surely benefit from in the future. Within the 24 hours of the Hackathon, we really had very great insights, we not only learnt new technology but also learnt management of time, resources, leadership and communication skills.

Intra-Squad Cricket
Physical fitness is very important when you are working in IT industry, so I rely on workouts via playing my favorite game “CRICKET”, it is good to play with colleagues! I thoroughly enjoyed hitting so many fours and sixes and luckily we also won the match After a great match, we were super hungry and Odysseus knows very well how to take care of their employees, we enjoyed eating yumlicious tummy filling snacks afterwards @ Kalyan Cafe.
All in all cricket playing is no less than a festival for us.

Hawaiian Day
You know you can’t resist the thought of roaming around beautiful beaches in shorts & flipflops along with having sips of sweet coconut water when you think of going on a vacation. It felt like a real vacation when I celebrated Hawaiian day with my teammates & colleagues here at Odysseus. Celebrations at Odysseus stand apart from other occasions you celebrate round the year because it doesn’t let you feel ordinary about events & occasions, you’re participating in. It’s almost been a year with Odysseus for me & it feels like I’ve joined this wonderful organization yesterday. Many thanks, kudos to the HR team & other social committee members of Odysseus Solutions for keeping alive the spirit of Holiday Season and making even the smallest moments memorable and special.

Mismatch Day
Everyone dresses up in most amazing combination of odd outfits. Mis-Match Day is a perfectly imperfect way to dress up. Employees had so much of fun with dance and music in the ramp walk.

Flu Vaccination
Since my joining, I’ve realized that Odysseus Solutions has a strong belief to promote a healthy lifestyle for the long-term well-being of the employees. It started with Flu Shot for all the employees across India locations. I’ve witnessed after taking the 1st flu shot for a year, my immune system has become strong and less frequency of falling sick.

Independence Day
A fun place called office. Family members called co-workers. “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do – By Steve Jobs” I love what I do here.

Women’s Day Celebration @ Odysseus Solutions! A day solely dedicated to celebrate the presence of women in our lives, the anchor amidst all the chaos, our mothers, sisters, wives and daughters, who ask for nothing in return, but give their everything to the ones they love, There is an amazing feeling of oneness from past 3+ years with Odysseus Solutions. I have never felt that before- when Women Support Each other, Incredible Things Happen. Odysseus Solutions as an organization believes in women empowerment. We inspire, support and motivate each other!
