What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Actively listen to your direct reports. Stop leading from a place of fear and reactionary backlash.

What makes you most happy at work?

DEB & community work has kept me going, as has cross functional projects. Not much else has.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Management needs to change up. They do not honor Chime's ideals. My manager openly mocks Chime's values, especially "Chime In" - Mgr really hates that one.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

I would say flexibility, however, my direct manager makes that inaccurate. The Take Care of Yourself days are great but manager talks a lot of smack about them and complains bitterly about people being people and taking time off.

What did you like most about the interview process?

I enjoyed the conversations with the interviewers. There we're a couple of odd moments with the leadership Zooms, which in hindsight, I wish I'd paid more attention to. Trust your gut. Don't trust someone who is disingenuous about something seemingly minor.
