Get a new leadership team
Everything. Start with focusing on the product, then culture (act like a grownup company, not a cadre of Marie Antoinettes).
Lead by example. Make better products. Have & focus on a cohesive strategy. Don't chase shiny objects. Get new GC, COO. Less marketing staff

promote supported education for all levels.
Unfair distribution of work between departments. Workload not manageable.
getting a raised for getting more responsibility
There are employees at the company who do less work, but are paid the same as i am. More money would make me feel better
There is a gender pay gap.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Adapt to modern day systems and tools.
Put children first. Think about the company before yourself. Without it, there are no jobs.
They are not the best and brightest. They only care about themselves and do not think of consequences beyond getting their way.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?

CEO and HR are extremely soulless. Company culture is toxic.

systems that interface instead of being dead ends, schedules that support ends of more groups and customers

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Culture audit. Listen to employees
Wrong CEO and senior leadership. The board needs to be changed completely. Everyone seems to have forgotten that we make toys for KIDS.
better systems for planning and execution against deadlines, earlier availability of assets
COMPANY IS IN A TURNAROUND MODE AND THAT'S NEVER EASY. NEW SYSTEMS DON'T INTERACT WITH THE OLD ONES THAT DIDN'T WORK. DATA IS STILL NOT CORRECT OR BEING RECEIVED IN A TIMELY FASHION NEEDED TO MEET DEADLINES
Stale management. Marketing execs run the company. They act like petty children. Why is the COO sharing the CEO's office? That is a bad sign
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
new managers culture or open mind.
i would like newer equipment
work from home options
