What makes you most happy at work?

My co-workers and the actual workload itself. I enjoy the actual work.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

The medical benefits, the beautiful campus. They portray a much more close knit culture than actually happens behind closed doors.

What are some of the best things about your team?

We are all transparent with each other and collaborate daily, helping with questions and research. I can always go to my team for help if I need it.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Almost every sector here is underpaid compared to the industry standard. Corporate uses the good medical benefits to underpay and overwork us. Titles are even kept "dumbed down" so they can pay less for what employees duties actually entail. Again, ignoring our concerns also hurts.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Taking action on their employees concerns. They brush off all concerns and complaints and don't actually ever take any action on them. We have all been speaking up in reviews and to HR, and we are brushed off or totally ignored, and sometimes don't even receive responses.
