What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Communicating needs and expectations without talking down to employees.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Smart people with good ideas are everywhere, in every department. Colleagues are encouraging even though upper management usually isn't.

What makes you most happy at work?

Atmosphere is friendly, design is not just for public-facing spaces. There is color and not just gray space everywhere.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Benefits (parental leave, domestic partner benefits) are more progressive compared to majority of other companies in the midwest. Remote work is valued as much as on-site work.

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

One or two people should be able to effectively conduct an interview. I was interviewed by five without a clear understanding of the roles four of them played withing the company or how they related to the position I applied for.

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

Salaries are below average across the board and employees are discouraged from discussing pay with their coworkers. Knowing you're not being paid what you're wort is one thing; but not being able to build a case for the true value of your work is demoralizing on top it.
