What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?I've met some really great people working here. I don't think that's exclusive to this company. There are great people everywhere. I've met not so great people here too, again, not company specific though.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?Not much, i guess that they finally gave in to allowing employees to work from home after the pandemic.
What did you like most about the interview process?Decision was quick after the interview
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?Employees are treated as expendable resources. Management is inconsistent. Your people are your greatest tool, stop treating them like they're easily replaceable or calling it constructive turn over because you suddenly want everyone in a physical office and refuse to work with them.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?My coworkers need training and follow through. There are so many different management styles that compete and no one consistently requires anything from one team to the next.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?Learning the systems that their people use. Direct leadership is pretty great, it's when you get higher that the problems start. The senior leaders are essentially middle managers with no say in how things operate and no knowledge of the programs their people use.
