My current company Convergys Philippines held its Family Day 2016 at the Megatent, C-5 Road, Libis, Quezon City last month. It was my first time to be at Megatent and first time to attend a Family Day. I’m single so I seldom attend events like this.
The event is full of activities for parents and kids – shower by fire trucks, concert, indoor games, mechanical bull, and carnival games for kids, etc. There are also a lot of concessionaires that offer several foods to employees, family and friends.
There are sample products for the family – mostly milk and cheese – and a booth by Smart. There’s also a giant slide in the form of a sinking Titanic ship. The only thing that pissed a lot of employees is the absence of extra food stub for the invited family members (Plus Two). The P150 food stub is only for the employee.
Convergys could probably have created employees fun day instead since it’s under budget for the food. Anyway, it’s a nice thing to attend and be able to see what it is like in Megatent and to meet fellow employees outside of work.
