Constructive Feedback From FANDOM Employees
- What would you improve about your company's interview process?They interviewed me twice after I was hired without an interview, once for a new position and once for a promotion. Neither time was I ever given a follow up. I watched a coworker get the promotion instead of being told anything directly.
- What needs to change to make the company culture better?I would like to have been treated like a meaningful employee to the future of the company.
- Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?I was paid well, but they refused to even consider a cost of living increase over the years as my pay remained stagnant and they failed to keep their promise to make me staff.
