What do you like best about the leadership team?
Humanity and understanding of the work/life balance.
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 14 days ago
I appreciate that the leadership team is cooperative, helpful, and understanding. They are approachable, supportive, and willing to collaborate to address challenges effectively.
Review from IT Dept · Posted 18 days ago
The leadership team genuinely cares about employee development, provides clear goals, and actively creates opportunities for career growth within the organization.
Review from IT Dept
The leadership team is excellent at communication throughout the organization.
Review from Engineering Dept
They communicate well - the CEO has been providing monthly 20-minute plus video updates since I joined 5+ years ago. He is honest & transparent, and it's inspiring. This is the first time I've seen a CEO communicate this well in such a context.
Review from Finance Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Stop firefighting, aim strategic goals and follow up, escalate to upper management on the critical aspects asap
Review from Engineering Dept
Provide feedback. Clear communication. Motivation.
Review from Product Dept
REWARD individual results when earned!
Review from Operations Dept
Communication, team building, delegate responsibility. No sense of team spirit or job satisfaction.
Review from Engineering Dept
Too little time (or rather, no time at all) is invested in the personal development of employees. There are practically no opportunities for career steps, at least in our division. You either accept this or leave the company. Naturally, this also has a negative impact on the motivation.
Review from Product Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The best part of the compensation package is that it provides a balanced mix of compensation and benefits, making employees feel valued and supported.

It is paid to me
Review from Engineering Dept
Discretionary PTO is a nice benefit.
Review from Engineering Dept
The benefits match the industry. "Unlimited PTO" is positive as long as you're disciplined to actually take PTO.
Review from Finance Dept
Rewards performance which is as fair
Review from Customer Support Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I am under payed in comparaison of the market
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 14 days ago
More dependence on (Trimble) results.
Review from Customer Support Dept
I generally feel valued and enjoy my work here, but I believe my compensation is slightly below the current market rate for my role. A small base pay adjustment to align with standard industry benchmarks would make me feel fully recognized for my contributions.
Review from IT Dept
I feel like it is unclear how to increase my compensation and if the quality of my work affects it, where taking on extra responsibilities is not taken in account with compensation.
Review from Engineering Dept
Compared to market Trimble pays less
Review from Business Development Dept
What are some of the best things about your team?
The mutual aid and the team spirit

engaged, focused, still motivated, fair
Review from Engineering Dept
We have each other's backs.
Review from Engineering Dept
autonomous, collaboration, availability, efficiency, proactivity
Review from Customer Support Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Improve accountability and validation of peer feedback. We can work better by documenting verbal agreements to ensure transparency and stop the dismissal of shared project history.
Review from HR Dept
Understand that WPS does their best and not everyone is going to be 100% satisfied. I would just love for people to be happy with all if the free meals they get, but they still complain to me every day.
Review from Operations Dept
Take more responsibility, improve meeting efficiency
Review from Engineering Dept
Daily meetings should be work related and not forced water-cooler conversation. This leads to 3-5 hours of wasted time weekly.
Review from IT Dept
A general interest and investment in competency development, particularly from their leadership teams. The absence of good facilitation and coordination skills makes collaboration difficult.
Review from Operations Dept
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
The culture is collaborative and supportive, with an environment that encourages teamwork, open communication, and mutual respect.
Review from IT Dept · Posted 18 days ago
open minded and integrating behavior with people of several origins
Review from Engineering Dept
The most positive aspect is the highly collaborative and inclusive environment. Everyone is incredibly supportive, open to sharing knowledge, and genuinely invested in each other's success, which makes coming to work every day a great experience.
Review from IT Dept
The culture and environment are open and uplifting.
Review from Engineering Dept
The culture is global, and so it encapsulates many different local cultures - but we are able to make it work through a known direction of products and services.
Review from Finance Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
be faster in decision and execution, setting the right target, learning from 5 to 10 pat year of success or less success
Review from Engineering Dept
Reduce complacency and making excuses. Put in place practices and processes to allow curiosity. The organisation is full of really nice people, that are highly competent, but they are not empowered.
Review from Engineering Dept
More people in the office.
Review from Executive Dept
Promotions appear to prioritize soft skills over technical mastery. This creates a disconnect where strategic decisions or technical suggestions made at the leadership level often lack feasibility, inadvertently creating a burden for the execution teams.
Review from IT Dept
The culture would benefit from a stronger emphasis on accountability and radical transparency. Eliminating dismissive behaviors and ensuring that verbal agreements are honored or documented will help prevent gaslighting and create a more respectful, reliable workplace.
Review from HR Dept
What did you like most about the interview process?
The opportunity to share my skills and how I believe my skills fill the need to move the department forward.
Review from Sales Dept
I never felt like beeing interviewet.
Review from Customer Success Dept
The folks that interviewed me seemed to be genuinely interested in me. I didn’t feel like a
Review from Sales Dept
How genuinely friendly and transparent everyone was throughout. They were also cognizant of my timeline and needs and worked accordingly.
Review from Business Development Dept
It was all completed in one day and I walked away with a job offer.
Review from Engineering Dept
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
The interview process takes anywhere from 60-90 days to fully complete, sometimes longer if positions are extremely technical. We need to shorten our process to keep up with smaller companies that can make offers after one interview takes place.
Review from HR Dept
Less interviews and decisions to be made much quicker.
Review from Sales Dept
I received no communication from HR
Review from IT Dept
What makes you most happy at work?
Working with a collaborative team and having the opportunity to learn, contribute, and see tangible outcomes from my work makes me most happy at work.
Review from IT Dept · Posted 18 days ago
open minding, flexibility, autonomous, pragmatic spirit, focus spirit
Review from Customer Support Dept
What makes me happiest is my current scope of work. The projects are engaging, meaningful, and allow me to make a real impact. Having ownership over my responsibilities keeps me highly motivated and excited to contribute to the team every day.
Review from IT Dept
The project I get to work on and the people I get to work with.
Review from Engineering Dept
Working with my team and taking on the new challenges we face every day.
Review from Finance Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
tasks are puzzled, issues appear by inbox, too many scattered projects, workload to high but recourses are cut short, relevant tasks are unmanaged
Review from Engineering Dept
I would like to see clearer growth plans and stronger differentiation between performance levels. Currently, the compensation difference between average and high performance feels too small, which can reduce motivation for employees who consistently take on higher ownership and deliver strong impact
Review from Engineering Dept
A survey is not the way to initiate organisational change. I am happy to provide sentiment, but this seems to be getting into solutioning.
Review from Engineering Dept
More interesting work. More responsibility. Recognition of skills and appropriate renumeration.
Review from Engineering Dept
A lack of accountability and the dismissal of peer input create a breakdown in trust. Foster a culture of ownership where mistakes are acknowledged. Using written documentation for decisions will ensure transparency and prevent the denial of facts.
Review from HR Dept
What do you like best about your company?
I like the coffee machine.
Review from Engineering Dept
Opportunity to work in an intelligent, highly collaborative and diverse environment on innovative technologies and solutions for industry leading customers
