What needs to change to make the company culture better?

There's a lot of talk about company culture, but nothing to show for it. Quite disappointing.

A focus on culture. Don't think they know what it is.

office openings / hybrid options

Just go to another company.

Review from Operations Dept

Sonder headquarters and city managers are out of touch with their hourly employees. It took over 6 months for my GM to learn my name. HQ and GMs need to be MUCH more communicative.

Review from Operations Dept

More cross-team events, more celebrations of big wins, more connections with cities
