Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
Review from Operations Dept
What do you like best about the leadership team?
The leadership is not really straight forward with employees. It can be annoying at times
Review from Operations Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Promotions, salary increase, career growth
Communication is a huge issue. Also, learn how to effectively manage the center. The scheduling is awful.
Knowing what's going in the building they manage, and taking action accordingly. When an employee is regularly violating policy, and endangering people, punishing them. When people go above and beyond, rewarding them When it's consistent, promoting them when the spots open up.
Leadership team needs to get better at communication and professionalism. Center manager has forgotten to put in raises, has neglected on 1 on 1's, and overall management does not lead the team well. Turnover rate is at an all-time high
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The Stocks are generous and of value
Review from Operations Dept
We get yearly bonuses and are well compensated for working holidays
Review from Operations Dept
The health insurance is top notch
Review from Operations Dept
Health benefits are good, cover plenty
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
The pay does not reflect the workload performed.
Too much work for too little pay.
Promotion and demotion policies based on merit would be a fantastic place to start. Incentives for going above and beyond would be even better. How hard is it to actually follow the established company practice of having an employee of the month with some basic incentives?
What are some of the best things about your team?
They're a very close knit group
Review from Operations Dept
Commitment and dedication to their job and delivering quality products
My team cares about each other and we really do our best to work as efficient as possible
Review from Operations Dept
My team works like a well oiled machine. We communicate and efficiently do our job day in and day out
Review from Operations Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
The speed at which the job gets done, the customer service provided, and compliance with regulations. Wanting to actually be good at the tasks they perform is necessary to working together well.
If everyone had the same frame of mind when coming into work, then we would be able to communicate better and function better as a team.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
People are honest and helpful
Review from Operations Dept
I think people generally like working at shire
Review from Operations Dept
The most positive thing about the culture and environment is that we are there to save lives. Even when the day gets hectic, if you take a moment to think about the bigger picture, it helps to brighten the day.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Growth opportunity to keep people motivated
Hostile work environment. Management talks openly about employees in front of other staff and donors.
Upper management needs to go. Then, install managers who can actually lead people, punish bad behavior and reward good behavior.
SLT/HR need to follow thru with things they say they are going to do instead of blowing smoke up everyone's you knowl

We do work that matters.
Review from Operations Dept
I am making medicine that saves lives
Review from Operations Dept
I am most happy when a donor appreciates me. A lot of the time, we are just like robots--going and doing our thing and being ignored by the people that come in because they just want to get the procedure over with. It's nice when someone takes the time to have a conversation with you.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
More pay, promotion opportunities, better employee appreciation
It all falls to management. Hire people who are educated and experienced.
There is a consistent trend of horrible employees being left in place with no consequences for outrageous violations. Good employees get saddled with extra work and expected to make up the gaps, with no reward for doing so. Not just once, all the time.
