I have worked with utilities around the world. Xcel has the weakest senior leadership team I have ever worked with by a wide margin.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
New leadership team and a true commitment to our values.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I want to be rewarded and compensated for my work and expertise. All hiring and compensation decisions at Xcel are based on who you know rather than what you know and accomplish.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Leadership lacks integrity and is not committed to being a trustworthy provider of low cost energy. We need new leadrrship with a commitment to our values and delivering value to our customers.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Honesty, integrity, and a servant leadership attitude would be a good start. The current team is comprised of self absorbed individuals that are not capable of true leadership. Nepotism and cronyism drive all hiring decisions, and the result is incompetence at every level.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Hiring decisions should be based on competence. Hiring managers openly admit to trying to hire famil members diring interviews. The interview process at Xcel is a sham. They make hiring decisions based on who you know rather than how well you interview or any other objective measure of skill.
