Ask HN: Does in your workplace employee engagement / recognition is important?

Hi HN community,

based on daily information about another round of layoffs I am curios if employee engagement and employee recognition promgrams, employee recognition apps like Kudos, Bonsuly, Flaree, are still present? Is it important in your workplace?

      not important, means nobody care about it, only HRs? nobody cares about rewards?

        It’s to try to increase tenure and productivity without improving working conditions, tangible benefits, or pay.

        HR doesn't care, leaders somewhat care. But to me, this would be important if it directly led to a pay rise or a promotion, and it doesn't.
