What do you like best about the leadership team?
Always keep a clear line of communication.
Review from Legal Dept
Inclusion of the team members
Review from Legal Dept
For lack of better words, there seems to be less fluff and more focus on what we need to do as a company to move forward. I like the new mindset that all of the niceties are great so long as they don't interfere with our main purpose and success as a company.
Review from Legal Dept
The leadership team communicate open and honestly.
Review from Legal Dept
Welcoming and environment promoting learning
Review from Legal Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Bell either needs to offer a lot more money or do hybrid schedules. There's no incentive to stay at Bell, especially now that all of the talent is leaving and my job now takes twice as long to complete. Competitors all offer more money and work from home, offer at least one of those.
Review from Legal Dept
Better communication with team. Show they really care about retaining employees.
Review from Legal Dept
Getting rid of horrible managers/directors instead of allowing them to continue to lower morale because they don't want to "rock the boat"
Review from Legal Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
I think that it could be evaluated but blessed to have the job I have
Review from Legal Dept
Flexibility and Opportunity. Clear information
Review from Legal Dept
9/80 schedule & vacation days
Review from Legal Dept
the best part about my compensation package is the Vacation and PTO
Review from Legal Dept
I like the price for coverage
Review from Legal Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I am not so much worried about my salary as a leader as I am about the firefighters that work in our department. The low starting pay and even lower top-out pay makes it difficult for us to attract and especially retain certified firefighters.
Review from Legal Dept
Competitors all offer way more money and work from home. The younger generations actually talk about their salary to coworkers and friends at other businesses. We all know how poorly we're being paid at Bell and everyone is trying to leave to greener pastures.
Review from Legal Dept
By the market for my experience/education and my job performance not by my leaders attempting to spread a percentage across the org.
Review from Legal Dept
Given the arbitrary curve required for EOY evaluations that impacts both merit and IC, I believe the company should remove the required curve. Or at least change the impact to BOTH merit and IC. If the goal is to keep employees at a minimum base salary, there should not be another impact to to IC.
Review from Legal Dept
Bell has promoted a few 'token' persons of color to management but that number is still low compared to the # of minorities at Bell. Bell is able to work around this by promoting white women since they are minorities. Pay for people of color is far less that of whites employees.
Review from Legal Dept
What are some of the best things about your team?
Some are more than willing to help wherever
Review from Legal Dept
Inclusion of all team members

They are nice people and treat each other with respect
Review from Legal Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Some of them occasionally need an attitude update.
Review from Legal Dept
Our management is very disfunctional. We do not work as a team. The managers only interact with those who are considered 'friends'. Communication with others is only via e-mail. In the past, I LOVED working at Bell & thought I would retire here. Now, I have to pray to make it through my shift.
Review from Legal Dept
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
we have a small team atmosphere
Review from Legal Dept
Positive and inclusive culture at the office
Review from Legal Dept
I have seen a new excitement from my immediate team about culture shift and attitude changes from the top down that hopefully will positively impact our departmental operations. Change is still needed, but at least when coming to work now I don't have the feeling that I can't make a difference.
Review from Legal Dept
Everyone actively wants to leave Bell and talks about it openly and it's funny.
Review from Legal Dept
Bell really seems to care about its company culture.
Review from Legal Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Some of the directors do not care about their employees
Review from Legal Dept
flexibility to work from home, having more than one person in a critical role
Review from Legal Dept
What did you like most about the interview process?
I enjoyed the fact that I was able to interview not just with the hiring manager or HR, but with the entire team that would be my colleagues as well. I was able to field questions from them but also ask them questions of my own, and it let us get a great sense of one another and if we'd be a fit.
Review from Legal Dept
A lot of information and very personal.

Review from Legal Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
We need more money if we're going to be understaffed and overworked. Also I love work from home as I have a good home office setup.
Review from Legal Dept
I think if I am in a department where the director has better reputation I will be happier at my job
Review from Legal Dept
The PMP process is a joke! My manager has told me that they have NO decision making capacity in raises or promotions. That is given to upper management. Only 1 person per team or group is allowed a 4 rating. In our area, the SAME person every year gets that rating. Why doesn't look into this?
