Thank you for your input. Our company events have always created great memories for our team members, whether it is a social happy hour or a team building activity, our culture and employees benefit from time together outside of the office. While there are some restrictions that do not allow all employees to work remotely, there is a work from home policy in place so we would encourage you to discuss your situation with your manager. As for transit benefits, at this time we offer a pre-tax benefit for transit. Each year we review our benefits and take feedback from our employees on benefit and perk options. We appreciate your feedback! If you have other suggestions for benefits and perks at Forward Financing reach out to peopleandculture@forwardfinancing.com

We appreciate your feedback. We pride ourselves on hiring the best people and our Talent Acquisition Team has done a fantastic job on growing the team with Boston's top talent. We hope you have had the opportunity to attend a Boston sporting event with the frequent raffles. This is a perk that is always on the top of everyone's list. As we continue to experience tremendous growth, we have found that we are outgrowing our office space, and are looking at next steps for additional space. Thank you for your patience as we address the space concerns. If you have any additional feedback please reach out to peopleandculture@forwardfinancing.com
