Going to work everyday is a struggle as I have to constantly fight with my manager over small details.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

People are too caught up with processes and every task needs a case and a specific workflow. There are meetings to talk about how to approach each task rather than actually completing it.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Things need to be less entrenched in workflows and there needs to be less structured communication between teams. Managers want to control and micromanage every detail (including the CEO) and that leaves little autonomy to employees.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

There is this culture that everything at Avature is good and there is no need to change. That makes it impossible to get anything done as everyone is so workflow focused that any small task takes months to complete.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Managers need to be more flexible and give more power to employees. There is too much bureaucracy to possibly get anything done, and yet there are harsh deadlines imposed. Rather than micromanage employees, managers should focus on managing and actually forming a business strategy.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation is very low for industry standards and benefits are nonexistent. The company stays profitable by charging high prices for a software that doesn't really work that well, and paying their employees less than they should. Most employees make very little except for the Sales team.

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

The interviews were very unstructured and there wasn't a clear interview path at all. It seems like they have a set of questions they ask, but just decide in the moment what to ask. The questions made no sense in the context of my experience and I don't think my interviewer prepared at all.
