What makes you most happy at work?

Solving a problem other could not

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

the people who care and want to make the business better

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

Transparency between roles and pay bands and being forthright with where the organizations compensation compares across industry. Paybands are a taboo subject at TS, when it shouldnt be and compensation should be directly correlated to performance.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Presence of leaders walking around campus and engaging with the organization has diminished (partly due to COVID) and limits what they perceive the org to be instead of reality. This further disconnects those at the ground level from feeling like those who make decisions are in a bubble.

What are some of the best things about your team?

The camaraderie and having a clear common mission with a team that is invested in achieving that goal makes any long work weeks, tough customer conversations, or nerve wracking leadership reviews worth it. A team that likes and respects each other enough to go have a beer after a long day of work.
