What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Hire interally. We work hard, and then get beat out by external candidates all the time.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Some need to be put back into training, or let gonof altogether if they cannot grasp the basic functions of our job.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Let us do our jobs. Stop breathing done our necks if we're doing it properly. Pay us better, and maybe working here could be okay.

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

We do so much work, and only get a sporadic, "good job!" through Teams every now and then. Endless calls and emails, and terrible pay to show for it. Raises are only annual and feel abritrary.
