Comments on Workplace by Facebook
“Enables geographically diverse teams to engage in and help drive the organizational culture and updates” Manager of Product Development, USA, 2019
“Workplace was implemented late last year to replace Yammer. I have liked using this tool as it has a clear and intuitive interface design. I have also been impressed by the variety of ‘communities’ that have formed, often across different teams and parts of the business. I like that we can easily share different types of content with our teams.” Head of Risk Skills, Australia, 2019
