The honesty, integrity and transparency of the leadership team. The motto ?

They have been around Lamar a long time and understand our business.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Listening to their employees. Understanding todays economy and not short change them.
Care, respect, gathering information on situations and not making rash desicions. Understanding what is important to the team. Respect. Did i say respect yet.
I'm not even aware of who our leadership team really is. Almost everyone is remote so while I am forced to come into the office everyday, everyone else gets to experience the joy of WFH.
Review from IT Dept
More competitive compensation. General managers are the only ones with opportunities to make real money.
Review from Sales Dept

Review from Marketing Dept
Getting paid on time every month.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Consistent high level performers deserve a higher level base pay. Those that outperform others on a timeline scale are more valuable to the company. And the company is at more risk to lose those individuals
A yearly cost of living raise should be giver to all employees.
Company don't care about pay
Merit increases should be awarded yearly and not every two years. The expectation is for you to perform each year above and beyond, so why shouldn't a successful company follow the same rules for merit increases.

We all should understand how our jobs intersect with one another.
Review from Sales Dept
They are lazy and whiny and show no teamwork. They are always worried about what the other is doing for the day. I get belittled when I take a day off. The new guys nothing said to the when they do. Is it because they won't do certain jobs they feel overworked.

What did you like most about the interview process?
Very informal, engaging, interviewers listened more than talk. I left the interview knowing more about Lamar, its culture, job expectations, long-term opportunities and proven success stories for its human capital assets.

Review from Marketing Dept
Making budget ahead of time always makes everyone happy.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
The compensation needs to equate to the amount of work and experience.
Direction needs to come feom home office. The hust make up rules and change them when they want. Also they need to treat everyone equaly. They make it clear if they like you or not.
General managers are too powerful and will bury you if they don't like you. They don't like you making more money than them too. They cap your earnings.
