What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Recognizing that some individuals are not fair and impartial as they should be when occupying a leadership role. Vetting their leadership regularly with great regard toward bias and discipline.

Learn how former managers operated
Being human, and acting like it
Sticking up for the field service techs. Forcing people to take vacation who are paid hourly is foul. It doesnt hurt the salaried higher ups, it only hurts us.
Review from Operations Dept
getting a clue. They live in a corporate bubble and just pat each other on the back with no idea of what their employees need
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Seeing that input and criticism is accepted openly and addressed adequately. Not being afraid to resolve petty issues within the workplace before they become mountains.

Compensation is not correlated to performance. You might as well just coast while working here and improving your skills, or earning experience for a better job elsewhere.
Pay at the industry standard
I would appreciate more conversation about salary. It's only discussed once a year and then decisions are handed down, without discussion. Management decides, gets it approved before telling you. Raises are hard to get as well...
How about a cost of living that actually matches the real cost of living!!
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Respect, Discipline, Ethics, Morals, Understanding, Patience.

If our group had the mentality that we were a team we would be effective. Instead it feels like everyone is always stabbing each other in the back to make themselves look better.
managers need to actually know their employees, i dont even know who my managers boss is and my manager doesnt even know who i am
In some cases yes, I just don't like being around a lot of complainers.
Review from IT Dept
They are not held accountable or developed as leaders
Review from Engineering Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Management needs to hire qualified candidates to lead and not just put anyone in management positions.
pay us. you made 20% profit last year and we got less than cost of living.
Nothing. It's no use. You would have to get rid of the upper management or whoever else is on the take with funds.
Greater flexibility, telework options, flex time, these are things that would help.
Review from IT Dept
Better acknowledgement of employees work.
Review from Operations Dept
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Tailoring to the required skill set, which frankly is the ability to regurgitate information to a small group of individuals who are required to learn that information. As well as a bit of specific knowledge checks to see where that individual should start their integration into the company.

be honest. dont lie about advancement and job prospects when there are none.
It's pointless, the whole place needs to be reconstituted.
Too many people are in the interview room.

The contract was never set up according to government guidelines. As a result everyone is just winging it to try to get the project done.
management is all about metrics and corpo-babble. They feel great about standing on the shoulders of their employees
Nothing. The company is not salvageable unless employees are given proper contracts and protection from upper management corruption and arbitrariness.
Management has blundered repeatedly, but refuse to listen to any underlings about the problems. They blame their workers, but impede their performance constantly. Executive management lost 10% market share on our contract, equivalent to $700+ million in lost business over 10 years.
Review from IT Dept
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Vetting of potential employment candidates, the team overall is good it's just the culture of our younger workers makes leading a challenge without compromising the strength of the group.
