I love my job - both the people I work with and the problems I get to solve.

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

Overall I've had a positive experience. I worry that we're starting to just standardize to what other tech cos are doing, and I'm a little disappointed in that. The company has cool products and solves cool problems, but is struggling to figure out how to balance top-down direction and communication

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

Overall it's a good company that's getting worse. Comp is better than smaller places which won't have as much of the "growing company" pains. Career advancement is problematic especially with new limitations on number of promotions regardless of employee readiness.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

The people are overall kind and caring.

What makes you most happy at work?

I get to help solve hard problems.

What makes you most happy at work?

Working with my team and peers.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

It's internally consistent and I think pretty fair internally.

What are some of the best things about your team?

They're all kind and smart!

What makes you most happy at work?

The people I work with

What do you like best about the leadership team?

I think they make good decisions and listen to feedback.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

They seem to care about people for the most part.

What are some of the best things about your team?

They're very kind and committed to doing a good job.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

We live pretty close to our principles still, though I worry that's fading.

What are some of the best things about your team?

They're kind and humble people who care about doing a good job on things.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

People care about each other but are also motivated to make the company succeed

What do you like best about the leadership team?

I think by and large they have a good vision, and they're conservative with our finances.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

It's probably competitive and I think HR does a good job of keeping it internally fair.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership needs to align internally on vision. Right now there are often divergent opinions in the leadership group making it impossible for teams to deliver.

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

There's just too much going on all the time. I'm overloaded and pretty sure everyone else is too. Too many objectives all over the place with no concerns for whether they're accomplished or not.

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

It's a well-known industry fact that you can always make more money by jumping ship. I don't think HashiCorp is unique in this factor, but it would be nice to get raises that are similar to what I'd see if I got a new job.
