Better Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

If your a parents then it great i guess

Some of the people who genuinely want to help people, regardless if its customers or employees are great.

Review from Sales Dept

Why ask about the positive when the negative outweighs any positive this company has to offer? Your work is not appreciated here and they will let you know that by directly messing with your compensation.

The fake inclusive social programs make you feel like the company many cares

Our work culture revolves around building each other up!

We have a common goal and work together to achieve it

We encourage on another and have fun while we work

Most have an extreme "how can I help" mentality and will do whatever they have to do to get the work done for the best customer experience

I am blessed to work for a great team with positive leadership.

I’ve been here less than a year but I’m loving it st

Work environment is peaceful and empathetic.

Leadership sets a positive, optimistic culture.

Review from Legal Dept

There is a spot for everyone. Every gender, philosophy, sense of humar, activist groups, charity, etc. No one is without a place.

Review from Sales Dept

We are trusted to be adults and get our work done. The incentive plan is based on actions that we can control, which is nice.

Review from Operations Dept

There are so many positive things about working for Better, that it's hard to pinpoint just one thing. I would say though, the upbeat, empathetic and diverse company culture is the most positive thing for me.

Review from Operations Dept

The different channels of inclusivity.

Review from Sales Dept

Everything! Can't find a single negative thing to say!

Review from Operations Dept

If it's not a regular check in with my manager, it's a regular meeting with the company as a whole to keep spirits high and make sure everyone is mentally, emotionally, and physically in a good place. Not only to work but in life.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Everyone is very open to learning.

Review from Operations Dept

The energy is infectious. There are bad days, but there is much to celebrate on a regular basis because we are helping people put a roof over their families' heads.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Sell the company and remove the c-suite

Upper management should be changed so that they do not plan out sudden lay offs in future.

Stop putting unqualified people in roles in senior leadership.

The executive does not communicate well.

Leadership clique needs to be replaced.
