Bloated processes getting in the way of progress, managers and leaders not understanding the state of the platform and focusing on empty KPIs instead of addressing real issues, 70% of my week being spent in meetings that won't ever go anywhere. Much needed improvements being pushed back.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
All my coworkers talk to each other with transparency and honesty
What are some of the best things about your team?
Everyone puts in the effort, we get things done and meet expectations even with an unstable platform and limited agency due to lack of trust with permissions.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Recognizing that giving 2% raises during high inflation is not appropriate, it is essentially a pay cut. Recognizing that without the people that build their product they wouldn't have their bonuses.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
As I said before a 2% raise given during times of high inflation is a pay cut. We onboard amazon, did everything in record time, every team got affected by it, all that stress due to the mismanagement of the whole process... for a pay cut? Makes leadership look bad
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Most of my day is meetings that lead nowhere because no one is every aligned and everyone wants to change the direction of the product in different ways, we can make 4 months worth of progress just for it to be destroyed by someone who was never in the discussion process to create a requirement
