Review from HR Dept

Review from HR Dept

The company regularly looks at pay to ensure we're paid fairly.

Review from HR Dept

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

Before Bridgestone I worked in an industry that underpaid me and it was the only industry I knew. When I interviewed at Bridgestone I lowballed myself b/c I didn't know what salaries were like in this industry. I often wonder if I am making a salary that is comparable to my colleagues.

Review from Marketing Dept

Duties expected go far beyond job description/market expectations for job title, level and compensation. Disadvantaged by the corporate rules of pay increase caps, lack of spot bonus clarity.

Review from Marketing Dept

I believe my experience level and skills I have brought to the company are deserving of a higher compensation tier.

Review from Marketing Dept

Being recognized for the role I perform in, rather than the role I'm titled in.

Review from HR Dept

Better compensation around time off & more competitive pay

Review from IT Dept

I feel I am doing a great job juggling my workload and clients, etc... and that I feel that my work is only praised with words and pats on the back and not a promotion or pay increase. This is how I would feel my hard work, dedication and time should be rewarded.

Review from HR Dept

The compensation gap with the market can be offset in my case if replaced by experience. Projects are assigned to contracting companies first without involving employees from the lower levels of the hierarchy

Review from IT Dept

Make the compensation like other companies do, at least be competitive.

Review from IT Dept

Our compensation structure is not transparent or equitable across the organization.

Review from HR Dept

To be paid market rate. Bridgestone is under paying employees which leads to high attrition.

Review from Engineering Dept

The work load keeps increasing, more pressure to get the added workload done Others on the team are not having the same expectations but yet we are all compensated the same.

Review from HR Dept

My pay early in my career was not competitive for my degrees and contributions. Once that happens, it's difficult to right the ship when making internal moves. It takes a lot of negotiating to take small bites out of the gap between what I'm paid and what I believe I deserve for the impact I make

Review from HR Dept

Stock compensation would be amazing part of our 401k

Easier access to our hr and benefits plan

Compensation has not kept up with the rapidly evolving pay scales. They are aware of this because they keep updating them, but they are still at the lower end of the spectrum.

Review from Engineering Dept

Senior teammates have had many tjings taken away to appease younger teammates. Retiree penson benefits have been capped and retiree healthcare is being removed in 2022.

I don't feel like I am undervalued.

Employees are not compensated based upon the value they bring, only how they compare against budget. Leaders provide inequitable budgets to preferred employees and burden others with higher budgets. Employees with lower performance are recognized while those who carry the organization are forgotten.

Change management from the top down.
