my overall experience at DP has been good, I've learned so much, and I've had the opportunity to work with a lot of amazing people. I have also been recognized and rewarded for working hard, which feels good. However, the workload has always been higher than I feel I can keep up with reasonably.

What are some of the best things about your team?
my team is made up of great people. they are kind and all dedicated to doing a good job and helping each other out. they're also just fun people to talk to
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
setting realistic goals and expectations, not overcommitting to the board at the expense of employee mental health and bandwidth, promoting people when it has been earned, implementing cross-departmental standards across similar roles for behavior and outputs
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Setting realistic timelines for launching new initiatives and giving the teams space to breathe and be creative innovators Not eliminating positions without fully understanding what the person whose position is eliminated was actually doing and having a plan of action to tackle those tasks
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
There are simply too many competing priorities. There are too many expectations. There is no time to catch your breath between hurdling towards another crazy launch timeline for another new thing. We never take time to evaluate and improve what we've already launched, we just add on more and more
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
we are stretched way too thin. there are too many things that have all been deemed "priority one". technological systems that were supposed to help are taking far longer to implement than expected. we need more team members OR we need fewer priority one initiatives and more time to accomplish them.
