Review from Customer Support Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
There is no bonus, nor increase in salary.
Review from Admin Dept
Equity levels feel generally lower for tenured employees. When we make offers to hire candidates, I see the new hires reporting to me get more equity than what I received. Refreshers are also generally lower than expected for high performers.
Base salary should be higher. Equity package is fine I guess. Reward people with cash instead of gift cards. There is little incentive to go above and beyond when people are paid the same/more for doing less work. Company is bloated, should trim the fat and pay high-quality employees more money.
Review from Operations Dept
Free connects for the workers.
A stock option package, or a better way to guarantee some work every month.
Review from Design Dept
The CEO compensation is totally out-of-whack with what everyone else gets (7 million shares!), while rank-and-file that actually do the work will never get a chance to make anything. The executive team makes too much in comparison, freelancers are underpaid.
Not fair, unreasonable, no time-proof
Review from Customer Support Dept
I only work part time so I am not eligible for benefits
Review from Admin Dept
It's a freelance market, so it is what it is.
Review from Operations Dept
the 20% docking is genuinely too much
