Our employees’ thoughts and impressions

Every employee is a unique part of a mechanism where everyone interacts as a unified whole. It is this seamless collaboration that allows the company to grow and thrive. As we approach the company’s birthday, we conducted a survey among our new employees—junior lawyers who joined us for an internship this summer, an experienced lawyer with extensive experience of work in the company, and our talented HR, responsible for recruiting new staff and ensuring their successful adaptation. We asked our colleagues the following questions:

• What does it mean to work at our company? 
• What values help them be effective? 
• How does teamwork inspire them to achieve new milestones? 

Their answers may surprise and perhaps even inspire you.

Question 1: What motivated you to join Manimama?

• When I saw an internship vacancy, I was primarily interested in the area in which the company operates. I think it is very relevant and promising, and every day I am more convinced that I made the right choice. After the interview and the test task, I became even more interested in the legal work done in this area and wanted to find out what knowledge and skills are needed for successful work and development in this area. (Olesya Zhuk, Junior Lawyer)
• In general, my joining the team was quite spontaneous and I didn’t think about it as something serious or real until the last moment. However, it turned out to be quite the opposite and I am very happy about it. The reasons that made me consider this position were the large number of jurisdictions in which I could work, extremely convenient working hours, a promising field of activity, a young team and the opportunity to step completely out of my comfort. (Taras Kaliandruk, Junior Lawyer)
• During the interview, I felt that I wanted to join this company. The atmosphere at the interview made me feel like I had been part of the team for a long time. This sense of comfort and mutual understanding left a lasting impression and helped me make the decision to join. (Oksana Shamota, HR manager)
• I joined the Manimama team based on a recommendation from an acquaintance who told me about the company and its excellent reputation. I was intrigued by the opportunity to work at a firm specializing in legal issues within the cryptocurrency sector, even though I had never anticipated dealing with this field before. Additionally, working at Manimama offers the chance to interact with international clients, which is a significant opportunity for me. (Yevheniia Ukolova, Lawyer-Bizdev)

Question 2: What makes your work at our company special in terms of team interaction?

• Firstly, every team member is always open to communication and ready to help with any questions. I had to reach out to lawyers with whom I had not previously worked, and each of them was eager to assist, providing detailed explanations for everything I was curious about. It’s an incredibly pleasant feeling to be part of a team where everyone works together rather than remaining isolated. I am especially grateful to my colleagues in my department, who are always available and support me every step of the way, helping me adapt and develop as a professional more quickly. (Olesya Zhuk, Junior Lawyer)
• In our team, everyone clearly understands what they are doing and why. There is always professional support available, as well as the opportunity to chat with colleagues in a friendly atmosphere. Regardless of your knowledge, experience, or status, the key is the drive for growth. Each of us continuously improves, which in turn stimulates the development of the entire team, uniting us to tackle new tasks and challenges together.  (Taras Kaliandruk, Junior Lawyer)
• Openness, honesty, and straightforwardness from both management and colleagues, as well as the ability to express opinions and ideas freely, are traits found only in progressive companies. Here, everyone strives for growth and professional development, uniting us as a team to achieve common business goals. (Oksana Shamota, HR manager)
• At Manimama, there is an atmosphere of support and openness where everyone can freely share their ideas and suggestions. Regular team meetings and project discussions facilitate the exchange of experience and knowledge, enhancing our work efficiency. The lack of a rigid hierarchy allows everyone to feel that their opinion is valued and contributes significantly to the overall success of the team. (Yevheniia Ukolova, Lawyer-Bizdev)

Question 3: What factors inspire you and maintain your enthusiasm?

• It might sound surprising, but the most important factor for me is the team. When you find yourself among pleasant people who can support you, you don’t want to leave. It’s also worth mentioning the respectful attitude of our CEO Ganna Voіevodina: instead of feeling pressure or stress from management, you feel supported. And, of course, the exciting projects that inspire discussion and make you eager to work on them. (Olesya Zhuk, Junior Lawyer)
• The specifics of my work blend my childhood passions with my professional interests. From a young age, I have adored geography and everything related to it, while my degree is in law. This harmonious combination allows me to constantly explore new jurisdictions and study the regulations of different parts of the world, which fuels my endless enthusiasm and excitement. (Taras Kaliandruk, Junior Lawyer)
• Firstly, it’s the autonomy in decision-making that allows me to feel responsible for my work and confident in every step I take. Secondly, the comfortable interaction with colleagues creates a pleasant atmosphere for creative work and effective collaboration. Finally, personal development and the company’s growth are significant motivators for me—seeing how we achieve new heights and realize ambitious projects together inspires and motivates me for further accomplishments. (Oksana Shamota, HR manager)
• I am inspired by the opportunity for continuous professional growth and involvement in solving interesting and important challenges. Equally significant is working in a team where everyone strives to achieve the best results, creating a motivating environment for work and development. The successes of our clients and their satisfaction with our work are powerful motivators that inspire me to reach new achievements and sustain my motivation. (Yevheniia Ukolova, Lawyer-Bizdev)

Question 4: What aspects of the corporate culture do you value the most?

• I appreciate the respectful attitude that prevails among team members and management. This applies not only to work hours and clear task assignments but also to the general human regard for one another. At Manimama, I like that the company does everything possible to support its employees, including providing flexibility regarding vacations, days off, and sick leave. This creates an atmosphere where everyone feels important and valued. (Olesya Zhuk, Junior Lawyer)
• At Manimama, I value several key aspects of the corporate culture. Firstly, it is transparency and honesty in the team, which contributes to a healthy atmosphere of interaction. Secondly, the ability to find a common language and the desire for continuous self-development are important. The possibility of direct contact with management is also a big plus for each employee. And, of course, the most important thing is a sense of humor, which makes work enjoyable and helps to overcome any difficulties.  (Taras Kaliandruk, Junior Lawyer)
• Here, we do not follow a standard approach but use innovative thinking based on real facts that improve the efficiency of our work. These are not just abstract ideas, but well-founded solutions that help us achieve better results. Every aspect of our work is aimed at continuous improvement and the pursuit of innovation, which makes the atmosphere in the company even more dynamic and motivating. (Oksana Shamota, HR manager)
• What I value most in the members of the Manimama team is their openness and honesty in communication. We have no hierarchical barriers, allowing everyone to ask colleagues or the CEO any questions. It is also important to highlight our focus on results: each of us is responsible for our part of the work, but at the same time, we all work together towards achieving a common goal. This cohesion and shared drive for success create a conducive atmosphere for productive work. (Yevheniia Ukolova, Lawyer-Bizdev)
