Ubertor is in the Philippines!

Thursday, October 13th, 2011

 


From L-R: Uber Trainee Dobi, Uber Cres, Uber Fonzy, Uber Bryan, Uber Trainee Alex, Uber Carl

(Yes, Alex has a Halloween headband on her head. The office is already decorated for Halloween!)

Here’s a quick snapshot of the Ubertor team at the OTD office in Manila. I made the trip to the Philippines a bit under a month ago and it’s been an awesome experience to finally meet, and work with everyone.

We’re doing great things here from expanding our customer service hours (our LiveHelp is now open from 7 AM PST to 10 AM PST), to adding new team members, and brainstorming new ideas to deliver better (and hopefully the best) service to our clients.

If you have any questions about Ubertor, feel free to engage our team and we’ll be happy to help.
