About Us
Cubiclue is a resource for working people. If the average person spends 30% of his or her life working, it’s not enough to be satisfied with a mediocre work environment. At Cubiclue we hope to open the discussion among employees as well as their superiors. What makes a company succeed? What makes an organization gel? What do I do to make my working life easier or more rewarding? We hope to help with all of these questions as well as in navigating the corporate maze. More about Cubiclue here.
Cubiclue’s creators got the idea of coming up with a website when they started having a management discussion in the comments of a Facebook status. They realized that they both had a few sentiments to share about maintaining a good organization, and that people are interested in sharing their experiences and learning more about building a life in any workplace. Interestingly, they are both Jills-of-all-trades!
