What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Removal. No time with workers
Sincerity. Communication. Valuing employees. Showing up to the office.
The leadership team is just a big clique. They don't lead anything and see most employees as being beneath them.
Understanding that we are human and relief employees are vital for a work-life balance.
Review from Operations Dept
Leadership needs to be more culturally/ethnic diverse. They need to understand that office culture will and should vary by region
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Management switches job scope and responsibilities but doesn't address pay gap for the changes.
I'm working a "Chemist" position, but as a lab technician being paid much lower than what a chemist makes.
Review from Operations Dept
Constantly given job responsibilities beyond my pay grade with no promotion or payrate increase
Management has devalued my job while Executives make quarter of a million dollars, annually
Promotions and pay increases go to favored employees not those who have earned it.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Maybe act professional. Dont just hire bros and a few eye candy females.
It is like a frat house. No one is held accountable for their work.
Some coworkers are great. Others do very little and get promoted for it.
Communication skills, and work life balance.
Review from Operations Dept
Coworkers were places in there position and lack the background and skills need for the role
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Replace disingenous 1950s style managers.
Value skill sets, promote accordingly, remove the rule for internal candidates of only being able to apply for positions within 1 paygrade jump
The mission statement and company values need to trickle down to the average worker, not just the corporate team
Review from Operations Dept
Leadership needs to understand the long term impact of their actions or lack thereof.
Review from Operations Dept
Stop layoffs. Invest in the future - i.e. advertise and effectively market our innovations. Consumers don't know our products exist.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Don’t lie to the prospective employ
Review from Operations Dept
Talk to people instead of only using scripted questions.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
The Andeavor MPC merger is failing. Attempts at bringing the two sides onto the same systems or same policies are going poorly. Bring in someone from the outside that actually knows how to handle such projects.
Management doesn't have a clue and doesn't care if they are unprepared for a meeting or if they tell outside customers the wrong thing
No career advancement. Promote/compensate valued employees
Management is ill equipped to deal with the company’s problems. Employee morale and engagement need to be addressed ASAP before there are major safety or environmental repercussion
By weeding out poor leaders and understanding what makes good leaders.
Review from Operations Dept
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
