Review from Customer Support Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Better management and pay we are due

everyone being in the same page when it comes to knowing the products

Actual goals and a performance management system,. Goals are meaningless at the company.

Enough employees to do the work. Managers that listen to employees.

Review from Legal Dept

Cultural revolution and a culling of old ways

Sticking with one thing instead of changing things constantly.

Review from Operations Dept

Needs to become more stable

Listen to employees and worry less about bottom line.

Review from Operations Dept

The constant layoffs lead to a culture of fear. The workload is crushing as there are not enough people to do the work. Talented people are fleeing.

Review from Legal Dept

The company is in a very dark place right now. People are feeling undervalued they are not being compensated appropriately. The bonus structure has been changed to pit co-workers against each other to battle for the same piece of money.

Review from Legal Dept

A lot of the negativity comes from resistance to change. I think that the company culture could be positively impacted if leadership was more involved with employees.

Review from Operations Dept

The current culture is extremely negative and no one feel safe in their job. People are anxious and angry and sad they missed our co-workers have been let go and the fear of the same for themselves
