What does the leadership team need to get better at?
reality, ethics. finance, morality, everything.
Leadership needs to change period. The house has been on fire for more than five years. The last two have been back-to-back scandals.
Look at the staff they have chosen to lead regional offices. They are cliquish and stuck in very old mindsets. The eastern shore of Va leadership is one example. Our leader gossips about everyone behind their back and has created a lot of hostility against the rest of us and our work.
The leadership team in Virginia needs to look harder at their staff. Lacatell, in particular, has insulted would-be donors and partners. He brings no expertise, only attitude, to our work.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Compensation representative of the job, an individual's skillset, and full medical coverage
Compensation representative of my skillset and hours worked. Pay-tier system so im not paid the same as an unskilled counterpart in the same position. Full medical benefits
I work way more hours than im compensated for. Skillset is not valued and I am paid the same entry-level employees with less qualifications. Overtime is regulated and is often paid out in "comp hours" at base rate
I am consistently asked to do more work than I feel I am being fairly compensated for.
Some staff receive bonuses, and others do not. It's very dependent on where you sit in the organization. Similar benefits like accrued leave are also negotiation dependent based on geography.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Stop promoting the good 'ol boys club
Hire the right person for the job, not the right person for the statistic
Some co-workers are smart, dedicated, and talented. Others are back stabbing.
1 person usually does 60% of the work while the rest of the team slacks off. There is a toxic culture of competition between coworkers that is supported by the management staff!
Stop the cattiness and focus on the work. There are only a couple of 'bad apples' but they bring us all down.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Realistic workloads, improved people management, and less of a toady culture beholden to corporate donors.
Racial and gender based bias for career development opportunites! Senior management 100% supports affirmative action hiring rather than promoting based on experience, work ethic, or merit!
Change in leadership at the local level and having a process for staff feedback to higher ups
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
The interview process varies by team in who's engaged, but generally it's rapid and in a short timeframe.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
The organization is probably another scandal away from a well-deserved audit.
There is no one creating a positive, forward thinking work environment and strategy. It's a lot of independents working under one umbrella with way too many egos.
