At CluneTech, we have an extensive Milestone Recognition Program that rewards employees that choose to build along and successful career with us. As part of this programme, we love celebrating and sharing the stories of those reaching major milestones with the company.
This month we caught up with Encho Yordanov, Sprintax's Manager, who has been on our team for 20 years.
One of the best things about working at CluneTech is the opportunity to achieve your goals. The company fosters open communication at all levels, from our peers to our CEO's. If you have a good idea, you can easily share it and receive the necessary tools and support to bring it to life. This culture of approachable colleagues is rare and something we should value.
It's difficult to pinpoint a single achievement, just as it's hard to choose a favorite book if you're a book enthusiast. Every small accomplishment is a part of an ongoing journey that has spanned 20 years now, and I hope it continues.
The most significant change for me, and likely for everyone, was the shift to remote work due to COVID-19. Personally, I'm not a fan of working from home; I prefer coming to the office, interacting with colleagues, and keeping home as a place to unwind.
Like achievements, each challenge is important. As a team, we approach every challenge with the necessary attention, focus, and respect, enabling us to overcome them and turn them into opportunities.
To date, my favorite project has been working on Sprintax. Despite challenges like tax law changes that reduced refunds and the decrease in students traveling to the U.S. during the COVID years, we managed to achieve better results by automating the process and making it scalable, with a strong focus on technology.
Absolutely. My advice is: “Make the most of your time!” CluneTech is full of opportunities; you just need to seek them out and seize them. To succeed, it's essential to have the right attitude. If you're spending 8 hours of your day at work, ensure that you're investing in yourself. If you treat your job as "just a job," there's a high chance you'll be seen as "just an employee." Make those 8 hours count—strive to achieve more every day, and you will find it rewarding.
