Review from Marketing Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Being more transparent, setting clear growth plans
Review from Marketing Dept
Transparency, or lack thereof. Although the leadership team speaks endlessly of the importance of being transparent, few actually follow through on this promise. Decisions that have broad effect are given very vague explanations, disclosure is minimal, and excuses are plentiful
Review from Marketing Dept
The leadership team is young and needs to get better at communicating. Some managers are passive aggressive and rude to employees.

Review from Marketing Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
The sheer workload is hard to deal with. As your book of clients grows, your quality of work suffers. There are only so many hours in a day. This is something that management is familiar with and working to remedy, but there hasn't been a definitive solution yet.
Review from Marketing Dept
Remember where you came from and ensure the focus is on the employees. Execs should listen more to the reasons why people are looking for and accepting opportunities at other companies to slow the increasing employee turnover. transparency requires action, & isn't just a buzzword to throw around.

My workload is insane and there is no overtime. Not well compensated for the amount of work put in.
