lack of training, insane expectations, not enough compensation or work life balance.

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

the team spirit of lower level working ready to help at any time

What are some of the best things about your team?

Rackspace has a good talent for hiring good people that want to help others, at least on the lower levels. i wouldn't necessarily say that for anything above director.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Hiring more people to ensure that burnout doesn't happen, right now everyone is overloaded and ready to leave, where they can go to a company that is paying more as well with better work life balance.

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

Too much work, no work life balance, not enough pay for 24/7 availability expectations, lack of support from the technical teams supposed to be doing the work, ELT breathing down people's necks with unrealistic expectations, having to do an insane amount of accounting and auditing for other teams

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

Because i work 24/7, i'm set up with sales goals in a non-sales role that are unattainable, and am doing everyone else's job on top of my own because rackspace decided to do two massive layoffs last year. i have to figure things out or ask other rackers due to lack of training as well.
