Been here since US West, and the company has continuously gone downhill, with the recent Level 3 buying out Centurylink it has only gotten worse. I have not seen a raise in 9 years, when asking for one, it gets passed around and denied, which has happened for 2 years now
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Actually test for skills to do the job they are being hired for
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
They need to hire people with the actual skills needed to do the job they are hired for, and stop just hiring button pushers because they are cheaper
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Recognize employees value to the company and pay them accordingly, retaining knowledge is worth more than hiring someone at half the cost who has no skills to do the job.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Recognizing and paying their employees, instead of developing a culture of feeling not respected, and placing employees against each other with no pay raises, no bonuses, cuts in vacation time, cuts in retirement options, reductions in staff to hire in cheaper workers.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Actually recognizing people for their skills and what they bring to the table and paying them accordingly, instead of a constant line of excuses as to why you cannot give someone a raise, or that only one person in each department can be allowed an exceptional performance rating
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Company seems solely focused on shareholders and executive pay, and that they do not care about the employees livelihood to the extent they announced no pay raises anymore, took away vacation accrual to skirt around paying that out if someone is laid off or leaves the company
