What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Doing their jobs they are getting the big bucks to do.
Remembering the core values that built the company. Remove the outside influence of people who Bill Gore chose to get away from for good reasons.
The leadership team needs to be accountable for their actions. Most people are promoted because they are status jockeying not because they qualify.
ELT needs to understand the company, not assume the context is like every other organization trying to implement IT systems.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
We are on the floor and hear from people at home how we missed something!
Review from Operations Dept
Fair pay for work performed.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Information is not distributed at meetings so that all stakeholders are involved. It is distributed through social networks. This makes no sense for critical systems and controlled environments. It's complete chaos.
They need to know that being the best friend iof your leader is making of a broke team.
Review from Operations Dept
Less gossiping and lies to ensure they get pay raises above peers.
Better training in scrum and the space in which they are working. Or get mentor training from a large IT consulting company- once methodology is ironed out and expected roles and responsibilities are flushed out then the IT projects should be much easier to implement.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Leadership accountability. Currently Medical Products division, leadership has not properly trained and routinely breaks labor laws.
Don't pretend to care about employees and promise fairness when you don't fairly reward or compensate. It comes off as manipulative. Ambitious smart people don't want to work for people who don't value and respect them.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Faster communication and increased visibility to the process.
Get experienced people to interview senior mgt contractors
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Culture is a pretense. Decide what you want to be and be honest about it.
Work on the toxic bullying environment between “senior” newly hired associates and competent contractors or jr associ
