What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Communicating with employees. Being more empathetic when faced with employee needs. Offer pay commensurate with the amount of education required to be approved to work a certain job. Currently, employees with Bachelor's degrees and above are paid at the level of McDonald's workers.

What is the best part about your compensation package?
Medical and dental insurance, paid leave and vacation.
year end bonus received in October
the 403B and pension contributions made by the employers
One the best retirement packages possible. 403(b) matches up to 3%. And they also have a 401(a) where they give you 6% for free. So in all, if you contribute 3% ETS provides 9%. Thats a total of 12%.
Do not receive any for seasonal employees
Review from Operations Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I wish more positions were available for remote employees
Review from Operations Dept
Raters have no benefits, and the pay for the job that requires a minimum of a Bachelor's degree in the field of specialty is paid anywhere between $11.50 and $15.00 an hour. For the amount of knowledge and responsibility involved in performing the essential job duties, this is woefully insufficient.
Review from Operations Dept
Their tests cost the people taking them from $75 to hundreds of dollars. The compensation of those evaluating and scoring should be at least 40% higher.
For the required education the pay should be much higher than a dollar over California's minimum wage.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
I have no coworkers I interact with face-to-face. I telecommute, and only get to interact with shift supervisors some of whom are pleasant to work with, while others lack people and communication skills.
Review from Operations Dept
Leave their religious and political beliefs outside.
They are a waste of time with too many questions being asked
Review from Operations Dept

That we are able to work from home
Review from Operations Dept
I telecommute, meaning that I work from my home and can make my work environment as pleasant as I want. If it were not for occasional interactions with coworkers/supervisors who lack people skills, this would be a great arrangement.

The positive insights about the company.
All online and at your own convenience
Review from Operations Dept
The actual interview process (after applicant's skills are assessed & applicant notified of advancing in the hiring process) consists of paid training and a certification test rather than someone's subjective opinion of what the applicant might or might not be able to do.

There is an inordinate pressure to introduce quantity standards that are too high if quality of work is to be maintained. Faster doesn't mean better.
