Was great then has been steadily heading into ground.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Life insurance. But that is pretty much it.

What are some of the best things about your team?

We get along, can talk about many things not work related.

What do you like best about your company?

We can work at home a day a week, unofficially as it is not a written policy and a manager could revoke anytime for no reason.

What would you most like to see improved at your company?

Stability. We have been flipped around owners like a hamburger patty on a grill. Having a ln owner willing to invest in growth as appears to starve us to show a better bottom line.

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

We need new owners. KKR sees as a property to flip and make a buck on. They don’t give two bits how we work so long as it’s cheap to keep costs down and make ya more attractive to buy

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Transparency. We had a JV with our main competitor and information was poor. People are nervous of lay offs and those not worried are worried we will lose high talent and bring more work onto them and make the company weaker for it. We are owned by KKR now and everyone knows what Private Equity do!
