What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Growth opportunites. Recognizing talent and paying for it if they want to be a true leader in all LED industries. Management and supervisors need to be accountable for consistent revenue loss in certain departments.
Understanding employee value and commitment.
Showing appreciation for employees. It's pretty bad when they can't even say "hi"
Work to keep current employees instead of underpaying and under-appreciating us until we leave
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Pay tenured employees what they are worth. Optional restricted or non restricted stock compensation. They need a better 401k and options within it. Support is a key. They do not backfill like for like if they backfill at all. Overworked employees and understaffed.
Meager performance increases despite accepting more and more responsibility.
The department I work in is the most physically demanding job and the compensation does not reflect that.
After having done some research I have found that I would need a 20% raise to be paid fairly compared to other people that do similar work for other nearby companies. Dak also doesnt give out bonuses, you could spend the last year working on a big project and when it's done you barely get a thanks
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
People abuse the work from home option and get a lot less work done when working from home, meaning the rest of us have to pick up the slack.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Reward commitment and employee input with fair wages and benefits.
There are too many "chiefs". It's not necessary to have a supervisor, crew lead AND line lead. It's a waste of money--especially the line lead position in the Assembly area
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
I would have them be much better at gollowing up eith potential employees quicker. Took me well over 6 months to get hired. Never got a response I had to reachnout to them
