What do you like best about the leadership team?

I can tell there is a real consideration for individual staff/people at Guidewire.

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

A need to address toxic working relationships between operational teams. I believe this is being caused mostly by individuals in director position.

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

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.

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

I personally am in a strange position where my manager wants to promote me but cannot until the August window, why is there such a rule?. Canadian PTO is very low compared to other countries in Guidewire and other tech companies. RRSP company contribution is extremely low.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

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.
