Recognized as a top employer by Forbes, Diversity Inc, Fortune, and others, PwC understands the critical link between strong internal employee connections and key outcomes like engagement and retention. With a large, hybrid workforce spanning multiple locations and business units, the firm wanted to overcome communication silos and foster meaningful interactions.

The platform has helped us bring intention into conversations, which can be challenging in a remote or hybrid environment.” - Chris Dulny, Chief Digital, Data & Innovation Officer at PwC.
