What did you like most about the interview process?

Demonstrate a minimal amount of knowledge and you're set, get ready to coast because that's what the majority of employees and management do.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Haha, wow, the book 'Death by Meeting' personifies the meeting value provided at Southwest Gas Corporation. It's for micromanagement and bosses to have a reason to summon employees because they haven't learned how to use Teams yet.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

After full vesting in the pension plan, five years later you need to buy out or not accrue further benefits to those employees, they haven't learned the new processes, systems, or done actual work in likely 20 years.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

If we were paid market rates then yes, it would be great. The compensation committee for some reason hasn't figured out that the internet exists and that we're paid lower than a majority of counterparts. Assuming things open up, I'd imagine your talent will leave, yet again. Especially younger kids.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Regular top heavy organization, understaff and overwork everyone below then tell them they're lucky to have jobs when they ask for help. I love how there was a horse sponsored in the Kentucky Derby yet they had budget for 2% companywide increases after adding two new Vice Presidents. Teldar Paper?

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Technology would be out of date in 1994, let alone 2021. Lots of record profits and small raises, especially with inflation above the 'top level' salary increase. Emails about a new VP or Director but you certainly have zero incentive to work any harder, just hard enough to stick around and kiss up.
