Perk

🎓 CodeCamp Class of 2025: officially graduated! We’ve just celebrated the first cohort of our 14-week, fully in-house software engineering program, alongside our CodeCamp teachers Mar Doig and Keith Douglas, and our Leadership Team Avi Meir, Robin Smith, Jean-Christophe Taunay-Bucalo. 12 curious and driven individuals who took a leap, worked hard, and are now officially Associate Software Engineers at Perk. Some of these grads came from our own teams: Customer Care, TechOps, and Product Ops. Others joined from completely different worlds like science, teaching, or design. What makes CodeCamp special isn’t just the curriculum (though learning Python, Django, JavaScript, React and more in 14 weeks is no small feat). What really sets it apart is what it stands for: 1️⃣ We believe in betting on potential 2️⃣ We believe career pivots deserve real support 3️⃣ We believe talent can come from anywhere Because when you invest in people, you unlock something powerful. 📸 From the graduation and inside a CodeCamp class.

How much of your talent is being wasted at work? Every day, employees lose an average of 7 hours a week to tedious, time-consuming tasks. We’re talking about action items that plough into work time, like reporting expenses, managing invoices, booking flights, re-booking those flights when they get cancelled. You know what we’re talking about. We call these tasks ‘shadow work.’ They’re essential, but they distract you from the real work.

Your time’s being stolen - about 7 hours a week. The culprit? Shadow work. All those invisible tasks that fuel burnout and cost businesses $1.7 trillion a year. Our CPO, Nikita Miller explains the core problem lies in the Automation Gap. Travel, expenses, and invoices have been historically too nuanced to fully automate - in fact, 74% of invoicing is still done manually. Perk closes the gap with one simple, intelligent platform. So you spend less time chasing receipts or booking travel, and more time driving impact.

Our President & COO, Jean-Christophe Taunay-Bucalo, joined CNBC International to talk about AI, travel trends, our US expansion, and how Perk is helping companies eliminate shadow work - the frustrating tasks that slow people down - so they can focus on what really drives business forward. 🎥 Watch the full interview 👇

$1.7 trillion. That’s the hidden tax on company growth. Yesterday in London, we brought together leaders from finance, ops, and travel - alongside our own leadership team Jean-Christophe, Yasmine El Alj Bratt, and Nikita Miller - to unpack the shadow work that’s holding businesses back. All those invisible tasks that are fueling burnout, distracting focus, and wasting thousands of hours in lost productivity every year, according to our new research commissioned to Forrester Consulting. With insights from Bruce Daisley, David Brodeur-Johnson, and industry voices from Bolt (Cathy S., Head of Corporate Services & Outsourcing), Piening Personal, (Robert Langhans, CFO), ENDIPREV (Carla Gabriel, Head of Travel & Accommodation), and Hanson Wade Group (Lisa-K Kleber, Head of Business Travel), we explored how shadow work gets in the way of real work - and what can be done to fix it. 💡 Download the full report on the cost of shadow work: https://okt.to/MrJyOc.

Shadow work. All the frustrating tasks that pull you away from what you were actually hired to do. It wastes time, erodes morale, distracts focus, and costs trillions in lost productivity. Download the report we commissioned to Forrester Consulting to learn more: https://okt.to/ZqLO8m.

Growth always brings complexity. The real challenge is making sure your people stay focused on the right things. Over time, focus can get buried under the work you weren’t hired to do. Before you know it, your team is spending more time on the work behind the work than the work itself. Here’s what I have learned: 1️⃣ The work behind the work. As companies grow, a new layer of invisible tasks starts to appear - chasing approvals, filing expenses, rearranging travel… all the things running but quietly slowing people down. We call it shadow work. 2️⃣ The cost of shadow work is higher than we think. We’ve conducted research and got the data:  - It costs businesses $1.7 trillion every year. -Employees lose 7 hours per week to shadow work. -58% says it distracts them from meaningful work 3️⃣ Great tech and simplification is a leadership choice. That’s why we built Perk - to bring travel, and spend together in one intelligent platform. One platform. One workflow. One source of truth. Complexity will always scale fast. It’s our job to stay one step ahead. Read more about this research we commissioned to Forrester https://lnkd.in/djxMbxWi
