Room & Board Environment Employee Reviews

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

Beyond great people, our work environments are well designed and comfortable

High level of respect and inclusion.

Good benefits and liberal time off allowance.

Collaborative spirit without a lot of rigid rules/processes. Respectful, happy and kind people.

Independence - the ability to move without a lot of red tape countered by a culture that demands us to keep our partners informed while using their feedback to improve.

People are inclusive and do try to put best foot forward with one another. The guiding principles are truly aspired to by most of the people I work with and I am proud to say I can find something I like about everyone I work with even though I have had moments where things have needed clarification.

Every one willing to give eachother a hand when needed and having that family type bond

Positive vibes all the way

The mutual respect that is given to each other helps build each other up as well as a means of conflict resolution.

Respect is obvious throughout the company.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Moral is abysmal and lacks healthy relationships
