Review from Product Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
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
Change management led from the top. We need to move faster, be successful even through a hiring shift to Chennai, and use AI to get much better at our jobs - all valid needs. They could be exciting change management projects but instead are currently mandated from the top with little support.
Review from Product Dept
Caring about their employees, committing to and communicating their strategy long-term, sharing Appian's financial successes with the employees
Review from Engineering Dept
Changing their actions based on employee feedback. They love to "listen" to feedback, but I have never seen the executive team change course based on that feedback.
Review from Engineering Dept
Get better at communication b/w different teams, more transparency on decisions being made at the highest level.
Review from Marketing Dept
Really care to the people and company culture
Review from Sales Dept
Invest in sales and marketing -- products don't sell themselves.
Review from Sales Dept
Leadership needs to evaluate headcount as it pertains to their desire to launch new initiatives. My team is already far above capacity managing day-to-day needs due to attrition and poorly thought out layoffs. We don't have capacity to run the business and have a new fire drill every day.
Review from Marketing Dept
Market strategy. If AI is an area we are going all-in on, then staffing and initiatives should reflect this. Retention and Employees. Forcing return to office without measured data to justify why shows a big disconnect between executives and employees.
Review from Engineering Dept
Not being evasive about the RTO policy.
Review from Engineering Dept
Listening to the employees feedback and implementing it, specifically about RTO mandate Being more transparent about decisions, specifically RTO mandate and de facto US hiring freeze
Review from Engineering Dept
The leadership should stop copying what other companies are doing and chart their own course. Leadership should also respect employee choices like wishing for remote work and stop bullying employees into coming to work by threatening them. Leadership should stop lying and giving deceitful messaging.
Review from Engineering Dept
Lost respect for the CEO and management when the CEO announced to the whole company on a call that during COVID Appian wouldn't be downsizing the workforce as the company had a very strong financial position to weather the storm, but after 2 days made a number of staff redundant in Australia.
