Communication and openness The collegiality and rationality are evaporating from our culture.

Understanding technology and invest in better tools and technology so the cost of GWCP can go down

Review from Operations Dept

Leadership team should focus on Quality work not quantity. No one talks about automating the mundane tasks. Also, Theres no one to listen, no matter with how much you have experience you still considered as you are no good and you just have to follow the instructions given. Micro Management.

The LTI payment I receive every quarter.

Review from Operations Dept

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

Compensation Reviews

The LTIs were removed and the increase that was awarded only equated to 1 years LTI allowance so i will be massively down next year when my remaining LTIs finish vesting. The communication regardobg this from our leadership has been extemely poor

Review from Operations Dept

Return of LTI that was taken away

Review from Operations Dept

Better communication. Do not make changes to the role structure after the performance reviews/merit reviews have already been done. Very unfair!

Bring LTI back and act on the feedback

Review from Operations Dept

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

We need to function as a team or a bee hive from the start. People are overworked and have too much workload to care about improving.

Review from Operations Dept

we can work fine as a team

Review from Operations Dept

Theres no time for anyone to interact with, lot of Mundane tasks, Leadership is innocent of automating and bringing efficiency. If there is more work, leadership immediately think of increasing capacity rather than how to reduce and bring efficiency.

Review from Operations Dept

as I'm working on a global team that covers at least 4 time zones I think there is nothing to improve as it's working.

Review from Operations Dept

My direct team is very good. But I feel outside of this we have some very serious procedural and managerial issues with being able to work with other teams.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

leadership turns a blind eye to ethical "situations" that are ongoing. there are people who work here who harass and get away with it

Review from Operations Dept

I believe there are individuals in higher management roles in operations that are making the working environment very toxic. Engineers should not be in a position where they are scared to reach out to other teams for fear of being shouted at on zoom calls by directors.

Better cross-team communication and planning

Outlook Reviews

The Executive Office is not on the same wavelength as everyone else.

Review from Operations Dept

workload and lack of appreciation for what we do (RMO)

Review from Operations Dept

There is a need for clearer direction from the management team of the company in relation to the long and medium term strategy with the related plans. And greater decision making authority by region and across the VP/Director grades.

Review from Operations Dept

more alignment in technology and processes internally

Review from Operations Dept

I think we do a bad job to defining ownership, I think there is too much consensus-building and it really slows down progress.
