What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Understanding the true needs and challenges of program participants.

Review from Operations Dept

The management have the worst dispositions. Their miserableness trickles down throughout the department

There is no leadership here.

They need to stop changing our jobs on a weekly basis. They don’t seem to know what they’re doing

Too many Chiefs and not enough Indians.

Review from Operations Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

I worked the same hours and had the same responsibilities as the permanent staff, and received no benefits.

Being paid regularly would help. Frequently we are not paid and they never tell us why

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Despite management, my team was great to work with.

My coworkers are great, it is the leadership that is the problem.

No one is motivated, everyone calls our too much, does too little.

Review from Operations Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

Management needs to be replaced with those who have a more positive perspective.

Less of an emphasis on "publish or perish" and more of an emphasis on actual education

Review from Operations Dept

We need support from leadership. It feels like we are working for no purpose and what we do accomplish is not recognized

Clear cut goals and deadlines

We need to feel like our department is valued and the people within it are.

Review from Operations Dept

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Interviews Reviews

The application process was a lot harder than I expected in all honesty and I was surprised that they accepted me.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

The management does not understand the workload and does not listen to staff when feedback is given.

My boss has no idea what they’re doing. And they are just all over the place.

I work in customer service and get yelled at all day long. People are mean.
