It depends on the supervisor. Currently I have a very bad one.
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
I enjoy my employees, but 2nd line leadership across the board lacks what is needed to be successful. Driven by the CEO
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Empathy, emotional intelligence and being trustworthy.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Coworkers are fine. 2nd line leadership and above is the problem.
What did you like most about the interview process?
Nothing special to report. Just generic questions amd no true connection.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
The leadership, starting with the CEO. We need new executive leadership.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Leadership at the top. He drives much of the negativity and it is copied by those below him.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Normal industry development, though often times getting the recommended designations do not lead to advancement even though the company gives the appearance it will.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
A focus on developing and encouraging true leadership from leaders over just getting a result or being made to fire people for questionable reasons.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Understanding and transparency. Eliminate using threats to get results rather than coaching and building relationships. The morale is low across the company.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
The CEO. Since taking over he has overseen changes that has led to layoffs, slowed rate of pay increases, and a culture of intimidation rather than positive reinforcement.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
They need to be leaders of people and not managers of task. There is no true commitment to their people, only "yes" men afraid of being true leaders.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Our company is making record profits, but its not being seen in employee compensation. It would be fair if profits we shared appropriately with the people that do the real work.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Our healthcare package is good, but only because of the prior culture. I imagine if this new CEO and leadership group could cut benefits to increase profits they would. There is no trust.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Our leaders do not give ratings and raises fairly. Often times predetermined by leaders without consideration of performance. There is alot of favoritism as well. Our bonus structure has been changed without clarity and the amount continues to be reduced even as the company continues to profits
