What are some of the best things about your team?

Although constantly embattled, my small team of 11 work hard and have a strong sense of comraderie. Extemely helpful and professional. Direct managers are the best I've ever had, and the main reason for my continued employment for the time being.

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

Pay is 16-17% lower than average earnings based on position, geographic location, and other demographics. Yearly increases are insignificant and often absent. Lack of resources makes workload extremely tedious and overwhelming at times, making compensation feel even less adequate.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

A select few have leadsership qualities with genuine intent to facilitate employee success and growth, but most are only managers by title, and because of time sperved, but don't exhibit real knowledge or understanding in their fields. Simple questions often prompt defensiveness and hostility.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Entire onboarding was unprofessional and painstakingly lengthy. HR representative was highly inept. Interview was cringeworthy and rushed, interviewer was rude and couldn't answer most simple questions about the company. Also failed to pay for drug screening, failed to notify me.
