What do you like best about the leadership team?
They make us all feel needed and appreciated and apart of a family.
Review from Finance Dept
Our leadership team navigated some choppy waters, taking the company and team through the pandemic, offering us all continued health insurance throughout, it was not easy for anyone, but they also made the right call to buy other companies during the pandemic which allowed us to grow in the storm.

Every one is very kind and professional, they all care.

Defining company goals with the roadmap

Review from Customer Support Dept
Listen to others. Set aside time to learn and appreciate people's experience, history, and existing knowledge. Don't just go with the norm because it's what has been done in the past. Don't be afraid to ruffle feathers knowing it's for the better in the future.
They need to have an understanding of how things work, in detail as opposed to always thinking about the "Big Picture"
Listening to their employees. Not making decisions that are based on what they think is the right direction and actually doing user research.

Review from Customer Support Dept
Having some sort of review or goal setting meeting of any type. Knowing what potential paths are available to me in the future. Having some sort of raise or acknowledgement / appreciation that I haven't received one in over three years for the better of the company.
Knowing my equity shares are actually going to be worth something one day
Review from Marketing Dept
Due to inflation and such, it would be great if I was paid more. And for the amount of work our small team does, the amount I make is not enough.

Review from Finance Dept
the people are great, fun and smart, but it's more important to be a self-initiator with team in different offices around the world, and coming from differnet companies - i have noticed that people need to reach out more proactively to connect with team members and communicate to be successful here
Review from Business Development Dept
Everyone is very kind and professional, they all care.

Review from Customer Support Dept
EDC seems to have a very corporate mindset, which is not necessarily a bad thing. But it seems to have fostered a culture where debate is discouraged, where finding the best solution is less important than agreeing with the person in charge. That sort of culture stifles innovation and productivity.
Review from Customer Support Dept
Need to get customers paid. Need to have external and internal excitement about the future. Need to stop feeling like we're employed to be band-aids to the product.
Work on proactive actions versus constantly reactive.
