Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Leadership team makes an effort to connect listens and understands what we are looking for
transparency, not micromanaging, very encouraging
Their experience and industry knowledge
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Everything. 0 accountability or transparency. Try leading by example and providing accurate insight to your enployees and customers.
Listening - it really is this simple. Stop getting up on your soap box and preaching about the good ole days at salesforce. The org needs to be reworked and you need to let data and internal polling factor into your decision making. Stop promoting top performers who are toxic to the culture.
The leadership team needs to let go of some of the day-to-day task and trust lower level employees to take them on.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Fairly paid as of now
variable pay is not much
No deductible for medical benefits, unlimited PTO, Free lunch
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
No amount of money would be worth working here
Unattainable OTE. Complete lack of transparency other than the expectation is that 20% of the org will hit their actual number and the next 40% has a shot at hitting 60% attainment. Bonkers
Larger base salary and more equity in the company
What are some of the best things about your team?
Leadership, cooperation, efficient and vibrant
Great attitudes, everyone is super helpful and smart
it is fun and dedicated towards the work
work hard play hard team.
Similar ages and timeline of personal lives match up, a lot of similarities.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Coworkers were egotistical and lacked any modicum of self respect when it came to interacting with leadership.
Middle management is terrible and the people they hire currently are under qualified sheep
They need to be a little more organized when they come out of meetings. There are way too many meetings where there are no action items.

Cleanhouse - get acquired and let actual leaders run the place
