What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Hiring competent team leads preferably from inside the company. My current supervisor is newer than I am and cancels most huddles and I have yet to have a 1 on 1 been on the team for over a month.
Review from Customer Support Dept
The executive team is only focused on supporting BC Partners exit from the sector. Along with the S-3ASR filing with the SEC. This is common in geowing companies, but Chewy is struggling to keeps its head above water. First round of layoffs, with more to come.
Review from Admin Dept
Leadership needs to get better at leading. There is no leadership presence or direction to unify teams together, and there is little communication from leadership on topics that matter to employees. Teams operate in silos with no regard for other teams, platforms, or internal user experience.
Review from IT Dept
Reviewing additional benefits to be most competitive.
planning and executing vs. running everywhere. we are no longer a startup and are NOT Amazon, have to think in terms of scale

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Major misalignment between orgs. Responsibilities and quality siffer from team to team.

Company does not pay relative to market
Review from Product Dept
I drive a machine every day nearly all day and mine and one other machine (out of 5) are the only type that are excluded from the $.50hr pay differential that the company offers.
Review from Product Dept
Every warehouse in our area gets more money, gets bonuses, got Covid pay. Everyone should not receive the same rate of pay when their is different skill levels.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
The coworkers are amazing its a joy speaking with them
Review from Customer Support Dept
I work well with my direct coworkers (there are only 3 in my department) but outside of that there are very few I interact with. Some are very unfriendly and some are even immediately defensive or rude and hateful.
Review from Product Dept
They need to actually care about their job, but isn't really something that can be taught.
Review from Operations Dept
Not being so fake to one another
Review from Customer Support Dept
Not everyone works equally. Alot of younger people which means lots of drama. Several occasions of couples working together and bringing personal issues to work which can be very disruptive.
Review from Customer Support Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Better data visibility so everyone can quickly understand whats working, whats not, and next steps with realistic timelines.
Review from Marketing Dept
More training for all, especially management.
Review from Product Dept
we need to stop working in silos and accept that collaboration is an enabler and not a barrier. too much goes on without coordination or alignment resulting in rework, duplication of effort and wasted time

Music is most def needed when coming to the environment of this corporation, music is suppose to be calming and vibe-able when in a work station and nothing seems fun about this love helping people but your not bout to change my narrative with this job.

Better management, better pay and more days off

Review from Product Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Customers call screaming at us for mistakes of previous reps. We need more competent training and to make sure ALL departments are on the same page.
Review from Customer Support Dept
Flatten the org structure. Why is their so many levels of managers managing other managers. Toxis leaders exist across the company. Ive interacted with many at the VP/Sr Director level. New C-Suite hire their friends to join in verticals that they have 0 experience. CEO hires wife and cousin. Messy
Review from Admin Dept

Management is a cult from Amazon
