Take responsibility for their actions and decisions rather than blame the employees for not understanding as a result of not being trained properly. In addition, do not guilt trip employees to stay because people keep quitting for not enjoying the environment.
Do the walk everyday and know what's going on in the project and who is working an who is not.
Understanding true strategy, it is painful to see zero direction.
They are all cold-hearted, with no sense of humanity they just fire people in a day. One of the worst management I have ever seen in my 17 years of career overall..

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

Creating more opportunities for employees to influence decisions and be recognized for their impact would f
The CEO needs to walk the walk instead of just doing the talk. Stop talking about how you're going to change the culture and actually do it.
They need to stop the finger pointing and work to fix the problem not find someone to be blamed.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
be detailed and easy going
Review from Customer Support Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Management (CEO,managers, etc.) needs to reevaluate how they are running things. Own your actions and decisions!

Review from Customer Support Dept
No appreciation on job well done. Even if you work beyond the working hours. Such as midnight calls and weekend calls.
