Attrition rates are high as globalization sputters along. The division of labor and salary is inequitable. The overall vision for transformation is unclear, and one gets the sense that the transformations will not jive at the end due to limited communication and portfolio management.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Empathy and respect is shown. Little conflict and ego.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Most executives have little ego and are open to talk with employees of all levels.
What are some of the best things about your team?
Olympus employees tend to be kind, empathic, and respectful. Just not always super competent.
What did you like most about the interview process?
Only 2 interviews and a relatively quick decision. Not drawn out. Pointed questions.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Salary adjustments are due, promotions are overdue, prescription coverage is very difficult to use - have to get rx through CVS, some medications aren't covered at all that are covered under many other plans.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Globalization/transformation being mismanaged. Need a roadmap and strong leadership. Global management (particularly in Japan) is not accepting of female leaders and Western/fast approaches. Decision-making is slow and laborious. Incompetence is accepted.
