they need to learn how to talk in a more tactful manner

Review from Operations Dept

skills, profesionalism, dress code, appearance, customer engagement and communication

Review from Business Development Dept

Be more compassionate to other coworkers internally. The coworkers in my office have a 'it's for me or for nothing' approach. They don't think about the feelings about other coworkers and are selfish. Especially when there are time constraints that are not possible or when things don't go their way.

Review from Sales Dept

Accountability is preached but never put into action. There has never been an issue here where someone wasn't ready to place the blame on someone else.

Review from Sales Dept

Better communication all around. Supervisors holding their team accountable.

Review from Operations Dept

People need to be more considerate of their actions, don't act in a way that causes problems for others.

Review from Operations Dept

There is a clear difference between the locals and the international employees. Locals could make efforts to be more inclusive and respectful. Jokes on the clothing or belongings should not be tolerated, and when HR representatives should take actions when witnessing such behaviours

Review from Sales Dept

About 98% of people at SMITH need retraining. People who have been here 20+ yrs still make fireable offenses and mistakes with nothing but a slap on the wrist. For this to get better, SMITH would need an entire restructuring. When employees see things like this, confidence and trust is lost in VP/CO

Review from Operations Dept

This is personal preference. My first priority is to a job well done and getting results for SMITH and myself. I tend to socialize less for those reasons

Review from Sales Dept

sense of helping and not using too much time for chilling

Review from Operations Dept

Fairness, less gossip about people, discriminating one from another. No pointing behind the people. Be better at your job, don't bid excuses that does not exist so basically work fair and together without making a trouble out of nowhere.

Review from Operations Dept

Less cliquiness and more inclusion.

Review from Sales Dept

be more inclusive and less clique-y

Review from Admin Dept

Be more inclusive. In my office you have to be a smoker or a trader to fit the team, I am none
