What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Ensuring that project level employees have enough hours to remain full time since we can not work outside of the company
Consolidate and pay us more money
Clueless on workload, low skilled, young and inexperienced
Review from Engineering Dept
Leadership is out of touch with what's wrong around here. I'm tired of seeing all these initiatives that go nowhere. It's annoying having to track my work in 3-4 trackers because new leadership has new ideas to help us track work. Our tech to do our jobs is cheap because of cost causing more issues.
Listening to what mid and lower tier employees have to say about their experiences
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
My pay is below average for my skillset and experience in the industry and area. I would feel better if the company was better at allowing training and continuing education. This is often discouraged from a cost perspective from leadership and executive teams.
Our salaries (specifically for planners) are below comparable positions of our competitors. Health insurance is good, but doesn't cover as much compared to other plans.
I'm told other companies pay more for similar roles.
Review from Operations Dept
increase pay to better keep up with inflation
The standard "merit" increases seem lower than then bare minimum. Many employees are told they are doing exceptional work and then get a 1-2% raise- that does not seem accurate for "exceptional" work.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
I have noticed a trend toward employees at the field level matter the position not respecting other peoples opinions or approaches
My coworkers in particular provide unnecessary criticism when they are stressed out.
A fully remote model poses may challenges to communication that I don't think SWCA has been able to fully overcome. It has created a lack of cohesiveness and comradery that leaves you feeling like its every man for himself instead of a group of people working together to accomplish a common goal.
Many of the co-workers i worked closely with in the psst have left SWCA. I don't feel the connevtion that i omce had
I never really interact with many of my coworkers so it sort of feels like I am on an island

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Its largely making sure full time employees have at least 40 hours and do not have to use pto to cover their hours to ensure 40.
Pay us more money please
Too many really good prople have left
The C suite thinks that they understand their employees but really they just have their heads in the sand.
Morale on my team right now is low, and it is showing. Its taking a toll on everyone. More investment in the people will help reignite their passion and excitement for work. We also need to find ways to engage with eachother and rebuild our teamwork
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Pay equity and transparency. Growth opportunities.
