All in all it is a great company to work for. I think there are some pretty rough issues that make for low morale in our market. Not sure how to fix it or who would listen. We are so large there really isn't anyone in "leadership" that is in tune with the people who do the daily work.
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
We are talking 30 years, so I am vested. But I have seen this place go downhill fast. People matter yall. The little folks are what makes this place work. Because of them you get a paycheck. It's time to stop treating folks like they are an employee id #.
What makes you most happy at work?
The hardworking ladies around me!
What are some of the best things about your team?
We, in these four walls, look out for each other.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
I believe the company does try to be employee focused.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
I am not sure what leadership team this is refering to.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Not a whole lot these days. The air is pretty thick and down right now.
What are some of the best things about your team?
I work with the team of folks that are here at least 8-5 Monday - Friday making things happen! They are some of the least paid and least acknowledged but they ROCK!
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
I am not sure which leadership team you are referring to. However, it seems that upper management (not local) is out of touch with basic business practices... I mean what it takes to make this business work on a day to day basis. The personnel and training to get the work done.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Morale is terrible. Folks constantly being forced to step up and do more with little to no "thanks". Constant feeling that you could lose your job at any time. Show some appreciation! Invest in your people! Folks working from home cause more work for those who show up daily. Period. Ask us!
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I don't believe people in our area are paid by the work they do, the actual showing up and getting the job done. It is a fact that the better paid folks are "working from home", not showing up, and banking on the work of others. I can only speak for the market I work in. It is crazy.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Not only to be paid based on my peers - folks in similar but to have merit-based pay (I am a woman and yes, I am going there) Not just an everyone gets the same thing. You do a good job - your raise reflects that. There should be an incentive for folks who report in daily (not work remotely).
