Does Publicis Sapient allow work from home to its employees?

Are you searching for work-from-home job options? Has an HR person mentioned a Flexi-work policy during your interactions? 

Nowadays, many job descriptions mention permanent work from home as an option to capture interest. However, after joining the company, the ground situation becomes clear. Many IT companies have strict three days office, with expectations to come the whole week. This has happened with one of my friends, where HR promised permanent work from home during joining. However, the team was coming to the office daily. It led to a wrong career choice because of false promises. 

So, how does Publicis Sapient India fare in remote work aspect?

Well, Publicis Sapient India has a flexible-work policy where people can choose any of these three options:

1. Primarily work from office – People usually come to the office 3-4 days/week. People who have a high dependency or are in a leadership position choose this mode of working. Even then, people have the flexibility to work from home as and when required.
   
   
2. Rotational work from the office – People have to visit the office for 8-12 days a month as per their availability. This type of flexibility provides a lot of freedom to them in their work-life integration.
   
   
3. Primarily work from home – Ideal for people who live in their hometowns and visit the office for planned offsites. For example, my team has a 3-day strategy meeting this week. The whole team will be flying to the office to attend it. Even though everyone is working from home, people come to office as per business requirements. This is one of the best Publicis Sapient benefits for me, as it supports my healthy life plan.

Many employees have already taken the work-from-home option due to various personal reasons.
Someone’s family has relocated to Pune, while others’ parents live in Chandigarh. Someone has small kids to take care of, hence despite being in Gurgaon, they have chosen to work from home. Someone has chosen to work from home because it is convenient to manage kids and home with work. Hence, your reasons may be as per your circumstances, everyone gets a chance if their work productivity is not affected. This speaks a lot about the work culture of Publicis Sapient which is diverse, inclusive and people-friendly.
