Supportive. Can trust them even if mistakes are made.
Experienced, trustworthy and helpful in career development
it is very nice and helpful
Fair and motivating. Proud to work there
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Be reasonable. We aren't robots !
Overall structure Needs to be ran like employees are adults. Not like a daycare
Keeping an open mind. I know leaders are there to lead and have their own idea or system for managing others. However the manager I have now is so close minded she does not care about any suggestions or ideas for her team and our team has a wealth of experience.

401 match is like a huge bonus each year
The variety of choices and the Health Ins
Free title insurance and recording fees
very expensive for family coverage
Review from Operations Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
The revenue needed to hit commission needs to be put at a reasonable number. It's a joke. You could sell 50 units and not get paid commission. You're stealing from your reps.
I have been with the company quite a long time but never get to share in any type of bonus. All the workers around me at Christmas time are happy to get a bonus but our group never gets one. Also the 401K match is poor. I mean this year it is going up to a 4% match if we meet profit goals.

Synergy. We all root for eachother
Supportive team players and like family
The support is great to have
Family atmosphere everyone gets along
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Well some of us work remotely and some work at a central office. So there is little personal interaction. That being said training for the staff would be nice. Half our team is super experienced and half is fairly new however there is little training for the new members of the team.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Managera who clearly care for the employees

They encourage work/life balance with family first
Professional, Customer Satisfaction,Teamwork, Respectful and strong leadership
Can't think of any.They say people first but that's a load of bs
Support and motivation family oriented
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Since I work remotely I do not have any major workplace issues. However the manager I have now sets a new definition of micro manager. I have to account for every second of the day and you know we are all adults here. I do not need someone to hold my hand every minute of the day.

My job is fulfilling and I work with a lot of people who I like
The Challenges and problem solving and helping customers and team members
I feel like I'm making a difference.
Review from Operations Dept
The atmosphere is very positive.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
They aren't fair with claims. They a ripping people off
First I would stop the micro managing the let the team get the work out. A manager who interferes too much causes counter production instead of actual production. And stability would be nice. I have had 5 managers in like 6 years so the way things are done changes rapidly in our group.
