March adventures of Merixstudio - what does the everyday life of software house looks like?

  1. We were sharing our knowledge with you
  2. What a month! We have published articles in AdMonkey, Nowy Marketing and Marketing w Praktyce. Anita, Ola and Bartek did a really good job, congratulation Guys! #articles #softwarehouse #poznan #poznandev #goodjob #congratulation

  4. If you are following us on Facebook, you might have noticed that during the past few weeks our articles appeared in various media. It all started with my article on AdMonkey about creating a successful corporate blog (you can check out its English version on our blog). If you are more fond of reading newspapers, you can browse through Marketing w Praktyce, where Anita explained what hides behind content marketing. Last, but not least, our Project Manager Bartek wrote for Nowy Marketing about gamification. As you can see, there is a lot you can catch up on.
  5. We helped Kasia in coming back to work after her vacation
  6. Our Account Manager Kasia came back from her vacation in Thailand. To make coming back to work easier for her we have decorated her desk as a reminder of the great time she had there. Welcome back! :) #office #officepranks #work #softwarehouse #poznan

  8. Our Account Manager, Kasia, had left our office for a while and traveled abroad to explore Thailand (of course, we were not even a little bit jealous!). Missing our bubbly friend, we've decided to make her return to the Poland a little less gruesome and to remind her about the sunny weather and exotic beaches, we've turned her desk into Thailand memorial. We did such a good job, that even the small palm tree has grown in created microclimate! We hope that our efforts helped her in this sudden change of weather- Kasia, we are glad that you are back. :)
  9. We were not afraid to show our geeky side
  10. Luiza, our #QA Team Lider, is a strong contestant in #GeekShirtFriday challange - check out her #ironman tshirt! The only problem is that it doesn't show the awesome, smug face of #robertdowneyjr... Luckly, his armor makes up for it:) #marvel #geek #geekshirt #geekgirl #softwarehouse #poznan #poznandev

  12. When the Internet is filled with movie critics fighting with loving fans of the "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice", we teasingly tried to bring Iron Man and his unstoppable charm to the conversation! Luiza, as one of the strongest competitors of #GeekShirtFriday, has repeatedly shown her love for pop culture on our Instagram. This time her shirt reminds that no one is more charismatic than Tony Stark! It's time to end these unnecasary disputes, now all we need to do is slowly gather the energy for the next fights on the upcoming release of "Captain America: Civil War." (At the end I will add that there is one think that we can all agree on - we all loved Deadpool.;)).
  13. We took a little Pudding break
  14. After a great nap now it's time for some shenanigans! Toys, beware - Budyń the Destroyer has his eyes on you! #pug #officedog #dogsofinstagram #pugsofinstagram #interactiveagency #softwarehouse #happyoffice #funwork

  16. After the visit of Luna, this month we welcomed another dog in our office. This time we were visited by Budyń (Pudding), the cutest and happiest pug you have ever met. It seems that he really had a great time with us and quickly felt at home - every room was meticulosity sniffed and the whole building was filled with happy snorts and grunts (everyone who had pugs knows what I'm talking about). We have offered Pudding a job in HR because of his great attitude (he hasn't barked even once that day!), but he kindly declined the offer. It's a shame, but he values his long naps too much, what we completely understand.
  17. We celebrated (even the smallest) victories
  18. And finally - the winner with his beautiful new tshirt! Congratulation Michał, wear it proudly! #rockpaperscissors #office #game #fun #interactiveagency #poznan

  20. In previous monthly summaries we have described our Rock-Paper-Siccors tournament. Now our very exciting game is over and all we had to do was to organize the closing ceremony in our kitchen. Gold, silver and bronze statues created by Anita and Krzysiek were given to the winners and Michał, our RPS champion, received the T-shirt with special design created by Kasia. As you can see, those prizes were worth fighting for.
  21. We honored the women's contribution to the company's life
  22. It's #InternationalWomensDay and our Guys decided to surprise our wonderful Girls with champagne (obviously the nonalcoholic one for kids:)), flowers, chocolates and oldfashioned stockings! On this photographs you can easly deduce who is not very fond of scare jumps;) #womensday #dzienkobiet #poznan #interactiveagency #office #fun #gifts

  24. 8th of March, the International Women's Day, couldn't be forgotten in our office. Ladies of Merixstudio received "mysterious phone call" that day and were asked to come downstairs to help with some urgent, work-related task. Of course everyone knew what was happening, but this didn't spoil our delight as we really enjoyed our little party. According to the tradition, our coworkers gave us stockings (which were supposedly really hard to find), flowers and chocolates. At the end of the celebration we drank the fruity champagne for kids - thanks to that we were not afraid of being a little buzzed at work. ;) The surprise was awesome - good job Gentelmen!
  25. We introduced Spring to our office
  26. Today is very special day - even job seekers know that! One hour ago we recieved this beautiful #hyacinth and it is now making whole room smell like spring! #recruitment #HR #flowers #gift #InternationalWomensDay #interactiveagency #poznan

  28. As it turnes out, our coworkers were not the only ones who though about celebrating International Women's Day. One of the candidates, who had a job interview scheduled that day, came to our office with a hyacinth. Maciek, with whom he had the meeting, felt that this gift was not for him, so he placed the flower in the Sales Team room. The new addition to our office was given a name (Sebastian) and literally flourished under our good care. Sebastian introduced Spring to the office, but I have to emphasize that this did not affect the recruitment results. However, we really appreciate this nice gesture. :)
  29. We demonstrated what great office party should look like
  30. Say hello to Monika and Ola! #officeparty #billiard #fun #interactiveagency #poznan

  32. Merixstudio is not only about work, what was repeatedly proved on our various social media profiles. This month we though that it was time to organize a party in more traditional manner. Our large group went to Zakręcona Billa, where, while having many drinks and snacks at our disposal, we had a great time and were able to talk about something else than work. Check out more pictures from this evening to find out what it's like to be a part of Merixstudio.
  33. We were not waiting for Easter Bunny
  34. Merixstudio, Budyń, Luna, Feta and Gacek are wishing you a verry yappy Easter! #easter #dogs #cat #animals #poznan #softwarehouse

  36. As I have mentioned before, we met Budyń this month, who therefore became the newest addition to the group of furry friends of Merixstudio. Having this merry gang at our disposal we came to the conclusion that we should not waste our time on the search of Easter Bunny. With that though in mind we have created an Easter card which starred Feta, Gacek, Luna and Budyń. I have to admit, picking their cutest photos for that was not a problem - our computers are filled with their snapshots!
  37. We worked on competence development
  38. We were not talking about the difficulties of playing #Mario, but about the #gamification, which is his biggest hobby of Barteks. Thank you for this interesting workshop, you did a really good job! #presentation #workshop #work #softwarehouse #poznan #poznandev

  40. There is no Merixstudio without our internal workshops. This time I decided to give a shout out to Bartek (one of the authors mentioned at the beginning of this list), who talked about gamification. He described it as the concept of using mechanisms of game apart from its contexts. He also taught us what are the basics of psychology behind this idea, what is the difference between play, game and gamification itself or what elements we can use to ensure effectiveness in this type of actions. Thank you Bartek, you did a really great job!

As you can see, in Merixstudio we like having our hand full. If you want to keep track of our activities, follow us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. Want to read about our projects or learn something about the newest technologies? Don't worry, you will find everything you need on our blog!
