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.

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 22 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 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 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 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'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 would you most like to see improved at your company?
Microwaves in all of the kitchens and more toilets.
