Inefficient and lacking in leadership at multiple levels. However, the pay and the benefits compared to the expectations are very nice. You may be able to make more other places, but the expectations will be much higher too.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

The retirement; however, new employees no longer get the same great benefits.

What makes you most happy at work?

Watching my direct reports push through terrible planning and ineffective senior leadership and still accomplish amazing things every day.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Bring in some leaders from other companies/industries at every level to bring some new ideas and shift the culture.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Very finite short term goal oriented. Does not take a long view on how to actually improve people and processes.

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

More time, multiple interviews, and some training for the managers doing the interviews. We hire the wrong person more often than the right person. The ability to balance short terms needs and long term success is very lacking.
