It pays my bills !
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
Overall it's a great company, where people are nice. My onboarding experience was not well planned. The training documentation was old or non-present. While collegiality is a core value, my colleagues are too busy/under immense work pressure to be able to assist.

I love social events in the office - they bring people together!
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Communication and openness The collegiality and rationality are evaporating from our culture.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
My leadership team is invisible. I would like them to be more transparent.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
We need to promote collegiality more and award more people with it. Each team/department should celebrate it quarterly/yearly.

I love seeing how other teams are working together, and there is a sense of collegiality and friendship
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Better communication. Do not make changes to the role structure after the performance reviews/merit reviews have already been done. Very unfair!
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
the events that I can not attend due to the workload Summits/get-togethers were positive, but we rarely do it these days
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
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.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
- Reduce the amount of the meetings/ some work can be done via emails - Invest in training your staff (especially all hires in ALL departments) - Update training docs/invest in a knowledge specialist for each department - Re-distribute the workload equally - Invest in new tools/software
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
First of all, leadership needs to be present. As a new hire, I was thrown into the abyss and had to pave my own plan. Please work on the knowledge base & process/workflow definitions >> provide adequate resources and training for all new hires. Work on spreading team's workload (overworked staff)
