Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Keep us informed on the company's goals and how we can contribute.
leadership wants OKR to be met but they have no funding and they can't provide resources.
I do not know them
They really care about people and thy are always available to mentor and guide
Over worked no budget no innovations
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Listening to employees and valuing employees
Listening and leading, if not inspiring.
There are too many issues to address.
Have better accountability. Treat everyone with sincerity and dignity. Not be short sighted and ignore people when they leave. Things will come around to bite them.
Driving innovation and finding new product opportunities.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
TR has good health insurance benefits.
Time off, the flexibility, wellness
Matching pension contributions up to 5% of salary
Very good and fair benefits
Thomson Reuters gives the best package in the market.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
if you want contractors to take on the work of a full time salaried employee, pay them as such. its too much to ask.
Title and more responsibility and opportunity
Compensation should be more in line with industry standards. Also pay inequalities between products and teams.
More work less people to do the work. Pay not going to the ones keeping the boat a float
Compensation and benefits are no-longer competitive. Executive team are trying to drive attrition.
What are some of the best things about your team?
Coworkers are supportive and encouraging
Team is fun, people are similar to me which is nice
My team gets along well.
Review from IT Dept
Always looking out for each other
Most are nice and they are cool people
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
transparency and make meetings more meaningful not just a random show up.
This area is not really an issue except that the majority of experienced people are now gone so most at TR are very new & inexperienced.
Alignment of goals and strong leadership
Need to show more professionalism
Most co-workers are contractors with little to no experience. I often end up having to do their job and my own just to get things done.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Work from home benefits are good, but the company will use this as an excuse to pay you well below what you should really be making.
Focus is on innovation and growth
People are great, work hard play hard
Giving premium to our loved ones by providing necessary time off for special occasions.
People are generally helpful and friendly.
Review from IT Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Better connection and integration of teams both personally and in terms of workflow organisation
Zest is missing and the feeling of doing something worthwhile rather than rote activity
Show proper care and not just acting on the surface like you care.
Greater incentives and getting a sense that what we do actually matters. That we won't be re-inventing the wheel yet again.
Treating employees as if they are truly critical and not easily tossed out and outsourced. Yearly layoffs demoralize people and the leadership constantly changing creates churn and yearly rework.
Review from IT Dept
What did you like most about the interview process?
Friendly, personable interview process for job
No redundancy. Recruiter then RSM then VP then offer.
Review from Sales Dept
Steps were clear and they reflected my real abilities. It took a bit too much time to complete (after the last interview I had to wait several weeks)
HR and interviewer makes me comfortable in whole interview process.
Consultation with senior management before being hired. Gave a chance to assess leadership direction/personality before making a decision.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
try and be more specific on what is going to be a deliverable. if you want a secretary, then ask for one.
More inclusivity. It was all white men, all the time.
Stop hiring people with no experience for senior roles.
Have the ability to speak with existing workers
The STAR process used boils down to whether the interviewee can tell a good story, rather than if they are qualified for the job. Department/company politics are also involved in interview decisions.
Review from Customer Support Dept
What makes you most happy at work?
Using my skills and being able to work remotely
Workload and the space to be able express one's self.
Being around good coworkers at work.
Review from IT Dept
Chill work environment that offers flexibility.
Solving problems (creatively) and the freedom to do what's needed.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
not sure but the senior manager in activation is not forthcoming and should have checks in place.
No accountability. No customer care / focused. Even when customer escalate, no one to deal with properly. Often over charge customer by padding hours.
All are outdated legacy systems and no enhancements are coming
Leadership needs to lead by example and give people a reason to stay other than trying to throw money at them to temporarily stay. Outsourcing and constant cost cutting are gutting core product teams.
Review from IT Dept
They continually increase rates without providing any value
What do you like best about your company?
Looking forward to change as a result of new leadership
The challenge of helping customers.
Review from HR Dept
Culture and the ways of working, the employee benefits
Review from HR Dept
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Internal processes and disjointed systems
Not much to improve at work.
Review from HR Dept
