What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Listening to employees and stop making changes by people that have no idea what is needed for workers to get a job done.
Leadership is terrible. Truth is they do not know what they are doing. What they have the bravado and cockiness as if they do. None of them have had formal training or education in leadership, management or business. They have "honed" their skills in a closed environment not realizing how real busin
Divisity is for the citizens in this company. The visa holder spend more time work for the company but get nothing. Some of the managers are bad that use the visa to therat you. Lot of retaliations for people who do not say yes to your boss. Senior managers has no vision but keep saving cost.
Review from Engineering Dept
Upper management needs to allow first and second level management more leeway to do their job and reward employees. Currently lower management is barely more than a conduit of information between executives and the workforce.
Communicating their mission and vision statements and caring about their employees.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
People don't work hard anymore because they see so many others doing nothing and get away with it. Raises are next to nothing if you are not in top management.
My salary is of lower end compared to other company.
GF is known industry wide to have lower salaries compared to the rest of industry. They know they are last choice for employment and therefore pay accordingly sincd anyone coming to them is desperate.
Just equal to the industry level will be fine. Company pay not by performance but manager prefer. The company pay less but on another side waste a lot of money on nonsense things.
Review from Engineering Dept
I was recently denied a promotion by someone who has never seen how difficult my job is. My contributions and glaringly positive numbers are ignored. But focus is placed on my minor deficiencies which can only be addressed by more logistical support and manpower which I am denied.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Gut the entire management system and train new managers to be leaders.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Managements attitude towards workers, listen rather then just do what you want and make things more frustrating.
This company CANNOT afford more call outs and employees that take advantage of PTO while those with better work ethic are paid less than or equal. Allow employees to cash personal/sick time or apply it to vacation bank.
The fake systems and just lies need to end. Transparency. GF will advertise and explain to employees how promotions work or compensation, but it is not how it really works or truth. As example ask GFer about roll out of "worksmart" program
Company should recongize people by performance not by managers. A lot of managers are evils and not qulified. Very racsis for visa holder and use everythings they can control you.
Review from Engineering Dept
More respect, appreciation and compensation for employees.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Stop having HR turn people down when they never did the work before of what is needed. The direct manager should be doing that.
Lots of lies. Lots of misrepresention of truths that you only realize after a little time in GF. Think of sterotype of military recruiters. GF is the same.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Management is a major problem. They act like they listen to our concerns but changes are not made for the better because people making them have no idea what the average worker goes through trying to get work done right.
Allow loyal employees with good work ethic that have not used all their personal/sick time (that everyone else seems to take advantage of) to be converted to cash or applied to vacation bank.
Customers only come to GF because its cheap. They know what they ate gettinh when entering into s relationship with GF. They also have zero respect for GF. On calls they do not trust GF's input or thoughts. This goes back to industry seeing GF as industry rejects. Just the cheapest placd around.
Stop talking about the nonsense good side but accpet the truth of what is the shortcoming and fix it. Communixate more with the employees ans customers to listen to what they is the real problem and what is the real solution. No just we are working on it but acutally nothing happens
Review from Engineering Dept
Morale continues to decline at a constant and seemingly never ending rate. Again, the company needs to focus on improving morale, employee appreciation and compensation.
