The survey shows that half of employees would like performance-based bonuses, while others emphasise the need for additional benefits to support personal progress, especially in the context of rising living costs. Over 40% believe employers should offer more time off, and nearly one-third would like access to services such as massage or psychotherapy.
“Professional development today goes hand in hand with personal growth, because we can no longer separate who we are at the office from who we are in everyday life. When organisational culture creates room for learning, reflection and authenticity, people don't just stay – they grow and contribute. True progress comes from training and achieving goals, but also from the courage to be yourself in a supportive environment,” said Elena Panait, Head of Leasing & ComYunitY at Genesis Property.
More than 80% of respondents consider the office important or very important for their professional growth. Recognition and reward of performance (60%) and support for work-life balance (40%) were highlighted as the main organisational culture factors that drive motivation.
In the long term, Genesis Property plans to complete the final stage of YUNITY Park, a campus designed by Liviu Tudor. The first two stages have attracted investments of more than €30 million, while the upcoming Innovation Center will add another €20 million.
The survey was conducted in April–May 2025 via the iVox platform. Of the 1,012 respondents, over 45% were female and nearly 46% had a net monthly income above RON 5,000.
