What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Stop replacing experienced production leadership with ineffective, hyper-surveillance management to mask operational deficits. Seasoned veterans require autonomous execution, not toxic intimidation. Prioritize actual structural competence over metrics if you want to retain top talent.
Prioritize humane leadership. Stop allowing inexperienced management to drive seasoned professionals into operational ditches that break morale, retention, and employee health. Executive leadership must hold management accountable for the physical and psychological safety of the floor.
Treating people with dignity and respect
Being honest with it's employees. The day before layoffs started, our exec team held a company wide meeting telling us, with "metrics" how we are on course for hitting and exceeding all of our goals for the year and our company is in great shape..to turn around and then say we need to shed 2% of ops
Communication and people skills would be good
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Eliminate the manipulative corporate mind games and align the floor with shared, transparent goals. True financial value isn't just a number; it requires operational integrity and a culture that respects veteran production instead of extracting energy.
Total compensation fails to account for the lack of work-life balance, high cost of living, and the severe physical and mental depletion caused by unsustainable operational methods. Burnout-heavy environments require significantly higher baseline financial protection.
The company does not anyone unless they are an executive
Improve upon the pay structure.
My compensation seems drastically low for the work I do. I am below the total range provided for the US average of my job title (meaning below the minimum).
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
The baseline culture and peer-to-peer collaboration that existed prior to the merger. High-performing, veteran teams naturally maintained excellent production standards and mutual professional respect before the operational structure was disrupted.
Eliminate the toxic culture of peer hazing disguised as feedback. Coworkers must be trained to deliver objective, metrics-based critique rather than demeaning insults. Healthy collaboration requires professional respect and uplifting peer dynamics, not intimidation.
do your job, non stop
Thry can be more professional
Review from Sales Dept
More skilled, less insecure, and more respectful. They could do without the gaslighting as well.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
The petty hype culture is all a facade. Upper management is totally detached from day to day ops and all they care about is new sales, not current partner/client retention or employee satisfaction. They hustle you into the dirt and then will replace you.
Lose the gaslighting, the toxic positivity, and the insistence on underpaying people.
fire the management, stop the sweat shop!
Review from Customer Support Dept
Stop firing people or demoting people without cause.
implementing the meaning of their words into the core of their actions.
Review from Engineering Dept
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Post-merger hiring practices completely disregarded proven industry experience. Onboarding prioritized corporate submissiveness over operational talent, resulting in highly seasoned veterans being managed by individuals with low to no baseline leadership capability.
Treat people like theyre stupid
They lie a lot at the interview and promised things that never happened
Include fewer people in the process. Many of them have no idea how to participate in interviews.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
What is going wrong is a toxic culture of hyper-surveillance and inexperienced management driving veteran talent to burnout. To improve, eliminate corporate mind games, respect autonomous production, and realign leadership with human equity and actual operational competence.
Forcing production teams into unannounced cold-calling loops without training created immediate friction. Customers were routinely confused and irritated by the outreach, severely damaging the brand's reputation and compromising consumer trust
Unhappy and undervalued employees, not serving clients as well as we should
Way too much management for the amount of workers that are actually there. They love managers on top of middle managers on top of over exaggerated middle managers.... And it's very much a political game to advance. Not the best person for the job, but hire the "yes man" just for the title
Staff across the board below Regional Vice Presidents are being underpaid and continually gaslighted in regards to our situation.
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Transition from a culture of hyper-surveillance and intimidation to one rooted in humane, collaborative execution. Prioritize genuine leadership competence over corporate compliance, and align operational metrics with the physical and psychological safety of the floor.
