Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

My role is definitely not what I interviewed for and the response from my manager is a threat to get rid of me rather than help me grow and develop. This is probably not the ideal experience I was supposed to have, but this is what I get with an inexperienced and insecure manager.

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

My expierience has been rough due to so many people not understanding what I should be doing

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

People are celebrated for just about everything/anything

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

Newer employees make it feel more inclusive

What are some of the best things about your team?

My team is smart and capable

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

They're trying to make it better

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

Better alignment with my industry

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Listening to experts that they hire and making data-driven decisions

What are some of the best things about your team?

We are a team that biases toward action all the time.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

Nee additions to the team are representative of what a leadership team looks like

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

Too many have never had jobs before, they require a lot of help. Too many are far too sensitive to work effectively.

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

For a small company that wants us to move fast, there is a lot of unnecessary bureaucracy. We are needlessly tripping over ourselves.

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

Comp data for my industry is published online, and refreshed annually with data contributed by hundreds of organizations both big and small. This is how I know I'm paid under market.

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

There is far too much emphasis on acting like a family but calling it other things - collaboration, connectedness, developing relationships. We are here to do a job, not make a family.

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

I am undervalued - wrong title, wrong pay. I am expected to perform at a level that I'm not compensated for, with no excuse other than my manager blaming HR for changing things. It makes no sense.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

There seems to be a clear divide between employees who were hired early on and those who were hired recently. The former get treated better and seem to have less rules / process around things like promotion and development.

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

I am expected to provide value that my peers are expected to provide, but they get paid more and have bigger titles. To make me feel valued I should have an equivalent title and be paid the same or stop requiring so much from me.
