"I joined Hubbell through an acquisition, which can be a challenging time. However, I was quickly immersed in the wider organisation and included in projects. From a career perspective, the work that I've been able to participate in and learn from has been invaluable. Hubbell has also provided me the flexibility to work remotely for short periods over the years to care for an aging parent."
