Review from Sales Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

some changes in the leadership needed especially in my department. Lack of respect for Work-life-balance and dictatorship

Review from Operations Dept

faster decision making, less red tape/bureaucracy, clear understanding of OKRs from the top down and how teams can incorporate them into their goals.

Review from Sales Dept

9 box. It encourages managers to put all their employees in pre-defined career projections or "boxes". It is terrible. Nobody wants to be in a box. It means some employees get unequal opportunities for growth while others are left to languish. At least, I assume it is 9 Box causing this.

Review from Customer Success Dept

More collaboration between engineers at other offices

Review from Engineering Dept

promote faster rather than when someone tries to quit.
