New employees are treated differently than seasoned employees at the same level. They are not compensated as well even if they have more experience and education.
What did you like most about the interview process?
Fast. All coordination done via email and texting.
What are some of the best things about your team?
Smart, loyal, hard-working. Also, ability to interact with others and create relation.ships
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
New leadership that are not happy with being followers, but leadership focused on what makes UP great: the employees. Leadership also needs to listen to those that have the day-to-day knowledge instead of making decisions in a vacuum.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Leadership team needs to be more transparent, share why decisions are being made including the impact to the company and to employees. They also need to get back to focusing on UP being number 1 and others trying to emulate us instead of us chasing them.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
There needs to be less change. The constant change and chasing the latest strategy is impacting morale and productivity. Employees are extremely disengaged and many are looking for new jobs. UP needs to get back to focusing on the employees being the greatest asset.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
There is a huge compensation jump from the Sr. Director level to the General Director level. The increase in compensation from level to level needs to be more consistent and not big jumps at certain breakpoints. Also, UP needs to take into account a person's career longevity for vacation.
