What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

They are pretty open-minded and innovative.

Clear and open communication style.

Again, there is no cohesiveness amongst leaders. They don't listen to their team members. If they then quality, delivery and retention rate could have been better. Honestly, Quality team leader is big B**L. Which organization can sustain with out Product Management. They think they don't need PM.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Listen to people and invest in long term

Valuing their employees, hiring to support, and not wirking people to the bone

Listening ET teams, openness to solutions, improve communication, start to communicate with others.

Improve accountability, due diligence, and actually living valuea

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

The higher than average pay.

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

Compensation Reviews

For the amount of responsibility I have there should be at least 2 people in my role. People I do work for recognize this ("how do you do it all?") but management doesn't. I don't like the fact they are now paying bonuses once a year rather than bi-annually. They use it to try to keep people.

There is no growth. There is no new development. There is nothing new, yes, there is one thing is new is New Employees. I have more then 2 decade of experience and i am by far more experience then other team and have seen compensation difference by Race. that's why I am paid lower than White

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

Great people on the team, interesting work at times

Some colleagues genuinely want to help.

Good team spirit, everyone trying to work towards the shared goal (but often hampered by "the system").

The majority of them are smart and work hard. They're team players and answer phone calls and emails when I have a question. Like most companies, we have a couple of clueless do-nothings, but that's the exception to the rule and doesn't reflect the quality of people I interface with.

The team I work is great, Sadly, I lost 7 of my colleagues and Boss in last 10 months. Now you can think why Good people leave. I have some restriction other i would be also. Team always worked as team, built the best product roadmap ever i have seen in last 12 years. And still no recognition.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Be professional and admit when a mistake was made

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

Environment Reviews

I appreciate the value of DEI

People are respected and the culture is generally open and friendly.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

Include individual contributors in planning. My group supports a lot of people and we are never included in plans to re-organize or take on particular projects. We find about it when it is announced and are caught off-guard. It makes us look like idiots because we're not ready to support the change.

Treat all team fairly with respect, hire more people, improve quality and delivery. Listen to smaller people who could have game changing innovative idea

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Interviews Reviews

Less steps and quicker. It was too slow

What makes you most happy at work?

Outlook Reviews

Solving problems for people I support and the fact that I can do my job from anywhere in the world with an internet connection.

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

Outlook Reviews

In a nutshell, there is big talk but little walk. Lack of resource and aversion to decision making prevents employees from working efficiently and often leads to a bad customer experience.

Wrong: Organizational politics, Fairness to treat, surrounding atmosphere (negativity), Directionless team Improve: remove bureaucratic, treat fair and create positive atmosphere
