I've been here for a long time and never felt a need to go somewhere else.

What makes you most happy at work?

Not being micro-managed. My manager trusts me.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Very autonomous. I don't have to micro manage.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

There's always someone around to help.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

They're empathetic to ongoing issues.

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

I have direct reports that make more money than me.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

I'm left alone for the most part to run my team.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Non-executives are allowed to make decisions without always running them by the exec team.

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

I only put no because there was not a sometimes option. Interacting with Engineering, Product, and Community teams is always a great experience. Dealing with the sales organization can sometimes be trying.

What makes you most happy at work?

That I have a job. I'm not a "work is my family" kind of person. I appreciate the salary and benefits but ideally, I'd rather not have to have a job at all.

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

From a salary perspective, I am underpaid by about 25%, but the benefits make up a partial difference. Not many companies can match our benefits. This is also an FYI as I'm too lazy to look for another job.
