This Purple Day is going to be a busy one: daily meeting ensuring all team members are on the same page regarding work status priorities and blockers language class and just after a Talent Management meeting with your manager discussing your career path. 

 Lunch break. Today your Team is onboarding newcomers but also welcoming French colleagues: the perfect excuse to walk downtown and bond over a francesinha. When returning inhale nature and peace of mind in Natixis Urban Garden (look at the crops; ready to harvest!. 

 Back inside. Brainstorming session on a new exciting project in our disruptive and immersive Manaus Village. The afternoon went flying (tasks meetings some jokes with your teammates). End it on a high note: celebrating cultural diversity with a Diwali the Indian festival of lights.
