Cindy Lee believes family should always come first.
Are you a parent who is trying to find the perfect work-life balance? We completely understand! As a company that was founded by a working mom and grandmother, Cindy Lee, we believe that helping our staff find this balance isn’t just important but is absolutely necessary. If you’re looking for a company that will support you as both a parent and a logistics expert, then LYNC could just be the place for you.
The Research
Before we go any further, let’s talk about some statistics. As you well know, kids grow up way too fast. As parents, we want to spend as much time as possible watching them grow up. In fact, a 2022 study from KinderCare Learning Companies found that 40% of the 2,000+ parents they surveyed would be willing to switch jobs if it meant they could spend more time with their kids. An additional 34% already have changed jobs!
How LYNC Helps Parents
At LYNC, we do everything we can to create a workplace environment that promotes balance and supports families. We offer hybrid work opportunities where parents can work from home two days a month with flexibility for each individual situation if additional days are needed.LYNC Logistics is also a kid-friendly workplace! We love when team members bring their little ones to the office. Seeing them playing ping pong or hanging out with our Chief Happiness Officers, Joe & Evie, always makes us smile.
We reached out to some of our team members to ask them how they handle being a working parent and how LYNC is helping them balance it all. Here’s what they had to say:
“Obviously, a paycheck is a great motivator, but I think Lync’s willingness/eagerness to work with me when things inevitably come up is so huge. As long as I’m doing what I need to do, I have that peace of mind whether it’s going to pick up 1 of my kids if they’re sick, bringing them into the office if they are out of school, or letting them come with me to the office over the weekend if I forgot something (they love the game room obviously). That peace of mind helps to focus on my job and to be a better parent day to day while also earning a living.”– Connor McAfee | National Account Representative
“Working for a company that understands the challenges of being a working parent has been absolutely amazing! It gives me one less thing to stress about when I have to tend to my family for one reason or another. Since working here, I feel like I have more control over my personal life. Doctor appointments don’t get postponed or missed & I can even be involved in my kids’ school events when needed as well. Being a working parent definitely has its challenges, but I wouldn’t change it because it gives me purpose each day & gives me a chance to be independent away from my family. I love working here!” – Sarah Windhorst | Accounting & Collections Rep
