- Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?The pay is not commensurate with the cost of living here and the annual raises are an extremely low percentage.
- What would you most like to see improved at your company?Upgrade internal systems, our old technology makes it hard to scale quickly.
