The new work pattern is very different to traditional forms. Six telltale signs exist which in case any organization is still undergoing, clearly points to being behind present norms. One of them is not being sensitive to the environment by going green. Environmentally sustainable practices such a using renewable energy improves the brand’s goodwill while also attracting millennial customers and employees alike. In case the organization does not offer work-from-home options, it is another such sign. Another could be the use of obsolete technology. Such organizations remain steadfastly stringent on work timings without paying heed to work or employee requirements. Work patterns are bureaucratic and hierarchical at such places. These kind of outmoded workplaces do not have a proper mutual feedback loop for employees to voice their opinions. Such places are then exposed to dangers such as high employee attrition rates, difficulties in talent recruitment, ineffective PR and vulnerability against competitors.
