Constructive Feedback From Samba TV Employees
- What's going wrong and how can it be improved?The contractors and lowest level employees are not paid a living wage. Like so many businesses in America, those sitting at the top are absorbing hundreds of thousands of dollars in compensation and/or millions in profits while the rest of us struggle to pay rent. Stop being evil. Pay a living wage.
- What needs to change to make the company culture better?Not relying on contractors as a crutch and paying the lowest level people a living wage, particularly if the company is going to flaunt its millions in gross profits and growth year over year.
- Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?Being paid a living wage, obviously.
