Wayfare

A strong team is built not only through the work we do together, but through the moments we share beyond it.

In the middle of busy schedules, deadlines and everyday responsibilities, it’s easy to forget how important it is to simply spend time together to talk, laugh, play and connect as people, not just as colleagues.

That’s what made our recent team building weekend so meaningful.

Belonging is often created in the simplest moments: cheering each other on, sharing a laugh, dancing to a song everyone remembers, or simply enjoying being present together.

These moments bring us closer and remind us that behind every role, project and responsibility, there are people.

We went back in time for a weekend, but we came back with something that matters for the future: stronger connections and new memories made together. 💛

Back to the 2000s: A Team Building Weekend to Remember - Wayfare Travel back in time with our Back to the 2000s team building weekend, filled with nostalgic games, teamwork, laughter, music and unforgettable memories.

Our workplace turned into a little marketplace, but with a purpose close to our hearts. ❤️

We gathered together and brought in things to sell to our colleagues, all to raise funds for a good cause. And honestly, the variety made it even more special: books looking for a new home, earrings and little treasures, games ready for another round of fun, and sweets that were almost impossible to resist.

What mattered most was people coming together, sharing what they had, and choosing to make a difference.

Sometimes, doing good doesn’t have to be complicated.

Small contributions. A shared purpose. A good cause. And a whole lot of heart. 💛

And of course, a little fun!

Two weeks into our Academy journey! 🎉

Nine trainees, learning Progress OpenEdge from the ground up. The excitement of day one is settling into something even better: real focus, real questions, and real progress.

What makes us proud? The mentors guiding them through it were trainees themselves. That's the heart of it: we don't just train people, we grow them, and then we watch them come back to do the same for the next group. 💪

Six weeks to go. We can't wait to see where this journey takes them.

Today's office sighting: trainees fully embracing the "Exploring Progress" spirit. Apparently, exploring new technologies requires the right outfit.

Mission control confirms they're looking good. 🌍

One week down. Seven weeks of possibilities ahead.

This week, 9 new trainees took their first steps into our Progress OpenEdge Academy.
Every journey starts with a first week: meeting new people, asking questions, discovering new concepts, and stepping outside the comfort zone. The energy, curiosity, and enthusiasm already filling the room make us excited for what comes next.

Here's to learning, growing, collaborating, and making the most of the next seven weeks together.

Welcome to the Academy journey! 🚀🧠

Swap day at the office today, and it was genuinely one of the favorite things we’ve done 📚🌱

We brought a book we loved or a plant cutting we’ve grown ourselves, and we just… traded. Left with a new favorite read and a little green friend that used to live on someone else’s desk.

Small thing, but it made the office feel like a community today, not just a workplace.

Starting something new is scary. Every single one of our trainees will tell you that. 🤍

Mihai found a team warm enough to ask anything, an environment where no question was too small, and by the end, more confidence in his code than he knew he had.

David will also tell you it was worth it. What started as terrifying quickly became one of the most rewarding experiences of his career, shaped by mentors who didn't just explain things but made him genuinely curious about them.

The technology was new to them. The learning curve is real. But you won't be doing it alone.

That's the whole point of Wayfare Academy.
8 weeks, 6h/day, starting July 20th — with people who are invested in the person you become, not just the developer you ship. 🚀
