Constructive Feedback From McMaster-Carr Employees

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Better communication and respect, sadly senior mgt has no interest.
Anonymous Review
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Way too many things to list, especially since this company has no intention of changing - even though they say they do. This company simply cannot be trusted, even their Human Resources department is toxic. They write fake positive reviews on the internet to try and get you to work there.
Anonymous Review
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Stop pschologocically and emotionally abusing your employees. You are fostering a dangerous culture and you are damaging the mental health of your employees. Do you really think it's a good idea to treat your employees the way you do? Do you honestly think people won't talk about those things?
