I do the IT orientation for new hires, and I always close by telling them that I've worked here for more than five years and they've been the five most rewarding years of my professional career, and that I hope they have as excellent an experience working here as I have had. I mean it, too.
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
My tenure at Fanatics has been the best working experience of my life, both professionally and personally.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Very good Kaiser HMO plan.
What are some of the best things about your team?
My current team doesn't have single clunker or low performer on it. That's rare, in my experience.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
It's a low-drag environment. Not too many meetings, not too many procedures, not much micromanaging. Management communicates clear goals and trusts me to accomplish them.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
When they added ongoing training reimbursement ($3000/yr) to the package a few years ago. It showed a commitment to developing employee skills, and I greatly appreciated it.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
They are genuinely decent human beings! I have regular interactions with the C-suite, and I'm continually struck by how much they are not like the execs at other companies I have worked at.
What are some of the best things about your team?
It's a team of about 17 or so techs across all sites, and every single one of them is both a good tech and an easy-to-get-along-with coworker. That's incredibly rare, and a testament to my leadership's ability to hire and retain good employees. Very low turnover, too - also rare.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
In my org - general lack of BS and wasting time on dumb internal politics. We have jobs to do, we get the support we need to do them, and we do them. Very straightforward. I have a level of trust with my coworkers and managers that I've seldom experienced at other companies.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
I interact with the C-staff on a regular basis, and they have always treated me with respect and dignity (which has not always been the case at other companies where I have done exec support). The tone is set from the top (by the CEO) and it filters down through the whole company, and it shows.
