Constructive Feedback From ALM Media Employees

  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    Everything - they need to pick a good long term strategy and stick to it. They tend to be more reactive than proactive.
  • What does the leadership team need to get better at?
    Transparency. There needs to be clear cut goals and expectations for employees and an outlook of Company goals. Leadership tends to yell and scold employees without giving proper training and guidance.

    Long story short I found myself doing the work of three people for the pay of one.
