Retirement matching up to 7% and healthcare

Overall package in total benefits and compensation

The wellness $500 for health

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

Compensation Reviews

Less stock more cash percentage in stock I get is way too high

I feel undervalued because of a lack of respect for the work I do.

A 1% or 2% raise is a slap in the face during these hard times of sky high prices.

Yearly raise that coverd inflation and being paid for the job you're doing.

2% every other year is simply insulting. I work very hard and contribute to my team in many ways and i do not feel i have been adequately compensated once i got hired into the company. Starting pay was fair, but that was it.
