Karaoke-inspired Singing Contest and OPM Bands at the Tunog Transcom Tayo Y2 Bacolod

Filipinos are known worldwide for having great singers. Most of us have an affinity for singing even if we cannot really sing because it is one way of de-stressing and passing the time. A lot of us also enjoy going to concerts and music festivals or simply watching singing contests on TV.

So it is no surprise that some companies hold music fests as a way for their employees to just have fun and let their hair down. It also enables employees to bond with each other, initiates a happy culture in the workplace, and promote work-life balance. One such company is Transcom Worldwide Philippines, Inc., a global customer experience specialist. They have more than 9,000 employees comprising five branches in the Philippines, delivering to international brands in different industries.
