What do you like best about the leadership team?
I am not sure which group this question refers to. If it is exec leadership team then I can't answer because I don't interact or hear from them enough to have an opinion
Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 2 days ago
They are focused on delivering more value to our customers, understanding that this will lead to sustainable growth
Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 3 days ago
Honest and intelligent. They understand our business
Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 5 days ago
The direction is clear, but I think the current branding and direction is poor. Not a fan of Serious AI and find it to be misleading for what we truly do as a customer
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 6 days ago
Consistency. Vision from Matt C.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Taking accountability and practicing humility
Review from Product Dept · Posted 9 days ago
We don't treat people like people anymore. We are reverting to sterotypes/biases/assumptions rather than being actively engaged and forming partnerships.
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 9 days ago
Supporting the individual contributions and making them feel heard
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 9 days ago
Growing the company and having a dynamic, fast-paced culture. It's too clinical now.
Review from Sales Dept
There needs to be a more focussed and clear sales strategy. It feels as if the company is constantly changing strategies and feels like they are just throwing darts at a dart board.
Review from Sales Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The combination of salary, bonus, and stock options is very competitive
Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 3 days ago
Flexible leave time as a salaried employee
Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 5 days ago
unlimited PTO that's encouraged to take and actually use
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 6 days ago
Salaries are overall good with market. Bonus targets are very low compared to market.
Review from Finance Dept · Posted 6 days ago
Honestly, there's not really a best part, but I do think it's fair. Maybe slightly under what I'd hope for at this point in my Appian/professional career.
Review from Finance Dept · Posted 6 days ago
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Cost of living is increasing faster than my compensation
Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 2 days ago
I think the compensation varies too much between countries, and also between positions. It seems to me that the position I hold, in relation to the tasks I perform, is not fully commensurate with my pay and/or financially adequate.
Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 2 days ago
Not enough responsibility. [Two more words]
Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 6 days ago
we are paid less than similar positions at other companies, and that used to be ok when we were treated better and trusted, but now it feels like we're treated as numbers, forced to work in office 5 days a week, and are still paid the same/less. they fixed salaries a few years ago but then undid it
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 9 days ago
I admit I love my role and everyone I'm working with however I'm significantly underpaid

always open to questions and conversation in general. can confidently say they're like friends and not just co workers!
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 6 days ago
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Collaboration is lacking, when processes change or need support they become burdensome to handle without adequate support.
Review from Operations Dept
Collaboration and growth mindset could be improved.
Review from Sales Dept
Move on from the old Appian way of working
Review from Sales Dept
I dont need to collaborate with them. I like being remote. A lot of my job falls on no ones shoulders but me

Review from Customer Success Dept · Posted 5 days ago
Openness to questions and wanting to assist in understanding
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 6 days ago
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Unreasonable expectations of speed to execute considering processes, their minimum acceptable standards are only achievable with working 10-12 hour days.
Review from HR Dept · Posted 13 days ago
work/life balance should be better. 30 vacation days instead of 25 would make a huge differnce. Most of my team members have that 30 days already. Not sure why this is not a standard.

Already answered in a prior question

Focus on people needs to return
Review from Customer Success Dept
1) Listen to the people doing the work 2) Stop treating remote employees as second class 3) Actually promote and compensate people in line with the impact of the work they are being asked to do.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 6 days ago
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
If I didn't have to go into the office 5 days a week and deal with dysfunctional executives
Review from Product Dept · Posted 9 days ago
I'm not sure if it can be improved. Appian seems set on going down a path similar to AWS or larger companies that favor burning out their workers to meet short term gains rather than long-term efforts that would reap more returns and less maintenance/operational costs.
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 9 days ago
without clear strategy, we get caught up in chasing admin work and working on the project du jour. I feel as is I am not able to commit the appropriate time to building enterprise strategy for customers.
Review from Sales Dept
The HR mission and goals are focused on company goals, and have very little to do with the actual "Human" side of Human Resources. Too many policies are "one size fits all" that don't take into account variations in job function, team dynamics, or individual work styles.
Review from HR Dept
At this point I’m not sure any suggestion would be listened to or acted on. It seems the executives want to stay tight lipped but front the idea they are listening. I’m dedicated and want to keep working here, but it seems like every f
