Ancestry Leadership Employee Reviews

What do you like best about the leadership team?

supportive, kind, smart, gives us opportunities

Attracting a great combination of new executives in our company who bring deep domain expertise across consumer tech and DNA.

They are creating an environment of company growth, and positive employee engagement. They communicate company information well to the employees, and are available for employee feedback and discussion. Everyone is important and what they do is important. I feel valued and appreciated.

They're changing to the better!

Review from Marketing Dept

They have made great strides at improving the leadership here and it's showing. Transparency is abundant and direction of career path and expectations set forth.

Willingness to try newer things, instead of sticking to what they know

Usually willing to listen

Review from Engineering Dept

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Be visionaries and leaders, not administrators; dont' tell lies to appease concerns within but be honest or don't say anything. You've become so good, you deceive even yourselves, thinking that's what they want to hear. Be unified and be an example by knowing your area of responsibility.

Review from Engineering Dept

Drive the culture of the company forward

Creating a culture of accountability that includes themselves.

Knowing the product. Knowing the user. Respecting the employees. Being honest & transparent. Read: tell the truth.
