Walker Supports Its Employees
"I've worked for Walker going on my 12th year now in a variety of positions. Regardless of my role or my responsibilities, I have ALWAYS felt like I was part of a family. For a lot of companies, those are just words or a concept but, I assure you, that is not the case at Walker.
A couple of months ago, my mother had a stroke -- her second in 3 years. It was a very traumatic and stressful time which could've been even further exacerbated by having to worry about missing time from work. However, with the flexibility offered at Walker, a hotspot was purchased for me and I was allowed to work remotely from my Mom's house upon her return from the hospital until I could get her re-acclimated (she also has dementia) into her surroundings and routine. It really made me think long and hard how the love, support and flexibility I was given positively impacted my own mental and physical health and how many employees these days would not have been afforded such benefits.
I know I could have asked to take the whole week off and it would have been approved, but my team was in the middle of some big projects and I take a lot of pride in my work so I decided I'd prefer to continue to do some work when I could. I was offered the flexibility to work my time throughout the day and night while taking care of my mother and her needs. I will never forget what I experienced and continue to experience working at The Walker Group and I wish you all out there find yourself an organization that values you as a human being with a family, animals and others who need you as much as they value the work you provide to the organization. I will forever be grateful to work for a company with such supportive leadership and kind and caring individuals across the board."
