What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

They treat others as if they are not people.

Communication needs to be a larger focus

Review from Admin Dept

Listening to their team. showing respect.

Review from Operations Dept

Be transparent. Message to the field, and message behind closed doors is never the same.

Review from Operations Dept

The mission is amazing, the leadership team is horrible at managing people and money

Review from Admin Dept

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

Compensation Reviews

Theres very little public, or even private, reccognition for the programs we run, and the CEO will probably take credit for whatever work the public actually sees. They also do not care about burnout. I tried to ask how we could decrease it, and was basically told 'good thing theyve got you for now

I do several jobs wear several hats and only a club level

All of the problems were blamed on staff. The real problem was lack of leadership. If you brought a problem to them they would disregard it and tell you to figure it out.

Review from Operations Dept

There are zero benefits in this job

Review from Admin Dept

We make minimum wage which is okay but after a hard day with 30 + kids you start to think its not very fair. Also I don't have an benefits at all. I think maybe a raise or maybe a little benefit would be nice.

Review from Communications Dept

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

Team Reviews

Quit and find a better job

Review from Operations Dept

My co workers are a BIG problem. Even the children seem to dislike the co worker. I have talked to the person about us but nothing has gotten down about, just excuses have been made for the behavior.

Review from Communications Dept

Yes pre-day meetings would help

They need structure and the want to be there.

Review from Communications Dept

Need to push back when intiatives are rolled out that only meet the needs of senior leadership, not the needs of our Clubs.

Review from Operations Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

It needs consistency in communication.

Changes at the top. Also, embrace the past as opposed to trying to destroy it.

Review from Operations Dept

Change some of the leadership. Fundraising team has been successful in growing revenue but is toxic to the culture.

Rules for the children being upheld at ALL times, and applying to everyone, instead of excuses being made for bad behavior, and rewards being given with no reason for it.

Review from Operations Dept

Promote work life balance for full time staff. Realize there is a life outside of the club

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

Interviews Reviews

Honesty upfront about the working conditions and lack of funding. It's very little pay for the physical and emotional commitment that the job requires.

They are incompetent, they need new everything

Review from Operations Dept

Let lower level employees participate in the process not just managers

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

Outlook Reviews

The pay needs to be even out. Right now the people doing the bulk of the work are paid less than 10 an hour. Mandatory coperate shananigans should be scheduled around the work and employees, not around a CEOs vacation People on the corporate end need to be held accountable

The ceo should resign and new executives should be hired.

Review from Operations Dept

My co workers need a strict talking to with consequences. Sitting on your phone or computer all day is not okay. Getting in everyones face is not okay! id also like to add that the negativity from said co workers needs to change as well.

Review from Communications Dept

Suggestions being ignored by district manager

Poor leadership. Do as I say, not as I do. Stop talking about culture and fix it!

What would you most like to see improved at your company?
