SurveyMonkey Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Accelerators and Spiffs based off achievable targets

Review from Sales Dept

Almost all of my sales comission can be allocated as savings. and i can see me growing my compensation as I progress through my role

Review from Sales Dept

Really great benefits plan and very competitive sales pay

Review from Sales Dept

The ESPP and stock program is great, all the benefits in terms of WFH stipend, health/dental/vision are top notch.

Review from Sales Dept

Fair commission structure that levels as you level up

Review from Sales Dept

The best part about my compensation package is that there isn't a cap to how much I can earn.

Review from Sales Dept

Equity, my annual bonus and my salary

Review from HR Dept

Benefits are awesome! Flexible PTO is great. Especially in sales. When you hit your numbers, it's okay to take a break. They really support your mental health here as well!

Review from Sales Dept

the employee wellness benefit, and the dental coverage!

Review from Sales Dept

Benefits, stipends, bonus, stock and competitive pay

Review from Sales Dept

The employee stock purchase program

Equity initial grants and yearly refresh.

Review from Sales Dept

The compensation package is fair, thoughtful, and competitive to other tech companies.

Review from Marketing Dept

The total comp is very good - better than at other tech companies. You get RSUs at hire and then a refresh at the yearly review.

Review from Marketing Dept

Flexible hybrid work options and the health insurance plan

Review from HR Dept

Equity as well as unlimited/responsible PTO.

Review from HR Dept

The equity is very lucrative.

Review from HR Dept

The salary and wellness perks.

Review from Marketing Dept

My base salary though the equity is strong too.

Review from HR Dept

I feel like I have good coverage. So far, the insurance support from the company has been really great.

Review from HR Dept

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

For a company experiencing growth salaries do not match and promotions within the company salaries do not increase. making the likely hood of staying at momentive minimal

Review from Sales Dept

I love this company, I only wish I had a livable salary for the high cost area that I live in, inflation has made this worse with existing debt from the pandemic.

Review from Sales Dept

Not as much as the industry standard for my role of a BDR

Review from Sales Dept

I think the leadership team takes my function for granted - I'd love to see them invest more in the people who make momentive a great place to work.

Review from HR Dept

pay scale is below market

Review from Legal Dept

Pay is middle of the road and the stock has not gained sufficiently to make up for the pay over the last 2 years.

Review from Legal Dept

They have been promising for years to adjust our salaries but we are still underpaid compared to the rest of the valley

Review from Legal Dept

The base salary is way too low! We pay at the 50th percentile while most companies in the Bay Area are paying at the 75th percentile. Every in-house attorney I know is making much more than me. Attorneys at law firms make 5 times that much. We can't hire because of the low base. Some left.

Review from Legal Dept

I'd like pay scales to be visible and better transparency about moving to the next career level.

Review from Customer Support Dept

I would enjoy having a HSA. Also, I manage folks who make more than me.

Review from Engineering Dept

More opportunities for bonuses and performance-related money would be awesome

Review from Customer Success Dept

compensation for my work/effort and not the results (since I don't always control that)

Review from Sales Dept

Transparency around industry standards for salary in my position and a commitment to compensate each employee fairly

Review from Customer Success Dept

Some local companies pay more.

Review from Engineering Dept

I make much less than counter parts in similar/same roles but I love the company

Review from Sales Dept

Wish they paid us based on market

Review from Business Development Dept

Although the benefits (i.e., vacation, insurance, costs covered by employer etc.) are superb, the compensation employees receive doesn't match the day-to-day expectations & workload for the job.

Review from Customer Success Dept

I think the benefits package is great but I don't feel that the monetary compensation is very good at all. Perhaps it the nature of the role I have and it is comparable to other non tech customer support jobs in the sector. All I know is it puts a big limit on my ability to save for the future.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Tech companies, in The Netherlands, are paying 2x, if not 3x, my current base salary in Momentive.

Review from Engineering Dept

It's not clear if, when or ever annual base pay compensation would change with performance.
