A complete nightmare. Thats all, a complete nightmare. I wish i could say the company would take my feedback seriously and change, but they wont. Ive worked for WFM for almost 8 years now, trust me, ive seen no change.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
There should be diversity recruiters. Also, there isnt any followup theiughout the process and very little communication. The recruiters will reach out to you and sometimes before they can even set up an interview, they stop responding. That's unacceptable, YOU reached out to ME.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Leadership should be diverse. Leadership is at least 65% white. The company has no diversity, equity & inclusion department or programs. HR needs to be 1-step above Ops. Not because they deserve authority, but the HR people are too afraid to make change because of the power imbalance.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
WFM already knows this-they offer the worst benefits packages ever. I have worked for worst companies that at least offer better health ins, vision ins, dental ins, etc. I hope that the Comp/Ben Exec's one day have to actually use the insurance to see what they are putting their employees through.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Leadership is way too powerful and completely unhinged. An EL of Operations can tell you to go f*** yourself but if you say it back, or if you even dare try to defend yourself, you get fired. 99% of the times, Operations starts these arguments with STLs, yet STLs get disciplined by HR
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Theres almost no point in providing feedback because WFM wont do anything about it. We have an annual employee engagement survey and years pass by and you dont feel, see or hear any change. Emails go out saying "we are changing, we care, we are doing XYZ" but XYZ is ineffective and does nothing
