What did Justyna say about her award? 🏆
"Thank you so much for this recognition!
During my almost 13 years at Groupon (I'm one of the Groupon Dinosaurus :D) I saw a lot of transformations happening here. Now, as a member of the Merchandising Team, my journey is filled with a lot of day to day challenges and difficult tasks, transformation is present in our work daily. But thanks to my team members and team leader, we are always able to be on top of these. Together with my team we value dedication, collaboration and teamwork spirit. It's really great to be a part of the team like this!
Once again, thank you for voting for me - this will definitely fuel me to continue working hard and with dedication needed for all the transformations waiting ahead of us."
