What does the leadership team need to get better at?
stop with the public people shaming, its not cool, its not motivating, its degrading. if you have to do it only use employee numbers, not names.
Prioritization, goals, resource planning, contingency planning.
This company turned into an assembly line culture with a revolving door. Lower wages, get rid of those who made a higher wages, value metrics of quantity over quality. They need to get better at their employee relations and the negative turn it took about 9 months ago. Its a very toxic place 2 work.
Communication be less passive aggressive listen to employees
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The vacation policy allows me to take time when i need it.
It is more then competitive
Health benefits and dental coverage
Im not quite sure as i have not taken the chance to explore the benifets much i have been with grove for 5 solid months so far
benefits start after just 1 month
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
No bonus structure, no 401K match.
The heat we experience during the summer is awful and we have been provided with little ways to combat it. During the winter months, road conditions are rarely safe during the morning commute as well.
Undervalued is just the tip of the iceberg. Compensation is not the issue. Its the focus, the mission, whats now important. People are more than numbers and are not robots. Make the metrics no matter WHAT you have to do and quit talking to customers so much is not what employees should be hearing.
Higher ups don’t no

Unlimited PTO is the silver lining.
I like the idea of going beyond plastic.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
focus less on speed and more on employees, and how you can make us want to work faster. the employees that always get the nubers do so by not doing their job fully because they dont clean up their cardboard, so then other people have to ruin their numbers just because we have to clean up after other
Invest in your people. Retain your talent. Your turnover is embarrassing. Temper tantrums from a COO and then terminations of good people is getting you quite a reputation in your warehouses. Jobs are a dime a dozen right now, what makes top talent want to stay?
Hire new management. They don’t see that due to the management they have now more leads and
What did you like most about the interview process?
it seemed genuine at the time
The interview process was straightforward and transparent
Very friendly and open overall was very easy and fun
they were kind and seem to care about washing hands and mask protocalls
Wide range of ppl to meet with.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Interview process was fine. It was not unpleasant or difficult but deceptive because Grove put on this Corporation B facade-they care about the world, the people the environment they claim. Yet their practices tell a very different story. Their employment practices as well as business practices.
The manager who was going to interview me wasn’t

I have the freedom to get things done and achieve my goals

getting free products if we go fast enough (but its only possible if you abandon your mess for others to clean up)
My teammates are absolutely amazing.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Look at the leader you hired
The culture changed, most managers I had left, Director of Operations left and it became a company that didn't give a hoot about its employees. It fostered a revolving door /assembly line atmosphere. No one had time to train, answer questions, or even know your name. They emailed your evaluations.
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
I would love for us to have a better web site
