Morale is incredibly low due to repeated and unpredictable layoffs, budget cuts and hiring freezes, and a lack of strategy and transparency around all of these issues.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Individual employees are great, but don't tend to stay at the company long, both because of layoffs and better opportunities.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Being transparent with the company, and seriously evaluating middle management, many of whom are just as problematic as executive leadership.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Address the fact that teams have been chronically understaffed for years, and either hire more people or actually make structural changes to reduce workloads.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

The company seems to have no high level strategy for its acquisitions and streamlining different products and services, resulting in redundancies that could reduce unreasonable workloads if addressed.

What did you like most about the interview process?

I was not interviewed by the current team, but in my experience some recruiters are great while others are difficult to work with. High turnover in HR hasn't helped.

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

Pay is not competitive with similar companies. Raise structure is totally unclear, raises are arbitrary timing-wise and not at all seemingly connected to employees' performance. Leadership and middle managers are not transparent about compensation.
