Creating a Parent-Inclusive Workplace

Laurel Kiskanyan, Senior Recruiter at DigitalOcean, shares her experience as a working parent in the tech industry and highlights aspects of the company's culture that she finds particularly welcoming. These include a non-judgmental zone, flexibility, a comfortable work environment, generous parental leave, and a sense of real community among employees. The company's inclusive culture makes all employees feel valued as individuals rather than just workers, which is especially important for working parents who need support in balancing their professional and personal lives.
