Good start to a career, but growth quickly stalls technically and career wise.

What did you like most about the interview process?

It was easy, but at least it was performed by an engineer.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Talented engineers who are committed to doing the best work and will go above and beyond to pull it off.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Stop changing company directions every couple of years and let things play out and back decisions with transparent data for your employees.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

People generally care that things go right and will voice their opinions, regardless of whether management listens. Work relationships that form last and go beyond just work.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Take a look at your competition around town and stop pretending you're not vying for the same talent. Either pay market comp or settle for lower standards. Can't preach you hire the best when you don't pay like it.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Management are making seemingly poor, ill informed decisions without transparency nor accountability. Engineers are left to suffer the consequences. Get more competent managers who have actual engineering experience, not those who didn't make the engineer grade early in their careers.
