It's lengthy and focused on not making hiring mistakes (meaning, holding out for unicorn candidates), instead of being responsive to market conditions and hiring the best available person quickly so that roles don't go unfilled for a long time

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Expectations and priorities from leadership are not clear and feels like leadership is getting increasingly paranoid post-IPO, so employees are becoming increasingly anxious that they'll be punished if an idea succeed. Lots of culture leaders leaving in the past 12 months

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

Within functions, some teams have higher or lower compensation -- not based on performance, more based on how generous an individual manager wants to be. No one is monitoring comp across teams within a function and the # of women & POC are so small that variances are dismissed as noise.
