It was difficult at first to work from home, considering that whenever I was there, it was always family time,” he says.<\/p>\n

And more recently, he was marked by the cyber-attack we suffered at the end of last year. “It was a challenge as a group to operate under those circumstances. We got to go to OSF and remember the shifts I did there, seeing colleagues was nice. It’s good to know that we left good memories,” he maintains.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_orientation=”left” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]It has been more than a decade since he joined the observatory and in the course of that time he has lived in San Pedro, raised his children and started a family. <\/p>\n

An evolution that he has also seen in our organization: “ALMA has changed, especially in the way it treats human resources. The evolution towards caring for the person, having the values and vision of the observatory is something that I can’t fail to highlight”, H\u00e9ctor concludes.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alma.loadingediciones.cl\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-2023-08-25-at-1.52.45-PM.png” title_text=”Screenshot 2023-08-25 at 1.52.45 PM” _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#153772″ text_orientation=”center” text_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]SI TE GUST\u00d3 ESTE NEWSLETTER, COMENTA AQU\u00cd ABAJO Y\/O MANDA UN SALUDO A QUIENES COMPARTIERON SU TESTIMONIO EN ESTE ART\u00cdCULO<\/strong>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n
