Review from Admin Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

We work for the State and that normally means a lower pay with better benefits. The Benefits are amazing, but we do make 20-30 less than public companies

My managers continuously belittle and shame me for every little thing that I do. Nothing is ever good enough. Rather than providing constructive feedback and support, they overcriticize and infantilize me and other staff members. Compensation does not match the level of tasks and responsibility.

MORE PAY, HIRE MORE PEOPLE IM TIRED OF TRAINING NEW PEOPLE ALL THE TIME SINCE PEOPLE ALWAYS LEAVE AND WE HAVE NO BACKUP PLAN WHEN SOMEONE LEAVES WHICH HAPPENS OFTEN

I work much more than I am paid to. It'd be great if they could offer better programs if not increase pay.

We have to pay for parking.. we are currently fighting for better retirement and wages.

It's not that I feel undervalued per say but mainly the pay could be better

Per hour rate is good.

Review from Admin Dept

Not appreciative enough in bonuses
