culture/ hard to recognize/ not the best

Revisión Publicado hace 2 años

Ancient, tight, scrooge, claim to be "family" but couldn't be further from that

The company offers a great challenge in a growth environment. As an employee I feel supported and given the opportunity to do my best for the business and its customers. Friendly and extremely knowledgeable I have felt this role to be my most enjoyable to date.

1. integrity - be honest. 2 respond to employee needs rather than lining your own pockets. 3. If you don't like the market you are in, then change your business model. Cut back on squeezing employees for margins. You might see better cooperation if compensation was improved.

The annual bonus, although not a given, is always a nice extra, and the healthcare package is extremely good

Revisión Publicado hace 3 años

It is competitive win all aspects

The health insurance is great.

Revisión Publicado hace 3 años

My health care is 100% paid by the company for me and my family

Revisión Publicado hace 3 años

It's the entire package--good healthcare options, stock purchasing and (for me) a healthy bonus and stock plan. It's not a flashy "all the paid time off you can eat" style menu or trendy "bennies buffet", but I like value, not flash.

I worked as an engineer and for being a women I was undervalued.

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ingienería · Publicado hace 7 años

treated like a commodity, added responsibilities and duties over spans of time, and no added title/compensation. Doing the work of 2 people. Earnings on the rise, yet annual merit was 2.5%. Turn over is high, morale is low. Management don't care, at least not care enough to take action.

transparency, trust, badmouthing each other behind back, just a toxic environment

Revisión Publicado hace 5 años

culture need to improve! meeting are not effective because groups are tying to off load their work to other groups. Pay is mediocre and there is always more to do than resources. High turnover, so much time/energy spent on-boarding and training, and then hiring again. vicious cycle of mediocrity.

Management meetings, many alphas and everyone needs to talk. few listen. Those who don't know tend to talk. Those who know, remain silent

Revisión Publicado hace 9 años

Lacks cooperation and integration. New hires try hard but need coaching, which they don't get because their managers are talkers not doers

working together, having small talks, being appreciated by coworkers

Great communication. Lots of community events and programs.

Revisión Publicado hace 3 años

Genuine politeness of the culture (if you've been in a toxic one you know how important that really is) and comraderie.

Revisión Publicado hace 4 años

They need to follow their own values and build trust by valuing their employees properly. Stop quiet firing and letting talented people walk out because you are unwilling to pay them fairly. This entitled attitude certainly doesn't "build trust," to quote one of Bio-Rad's "values."

Revisión Publicado hace 3 años

Develop employee engagement programs. Train executives how to support and retain their employees. Hold managers accountable for how they treat their direct-reports. Invest in training and development (and not just watching pre-recorded videos). Initiate a global corporate communication program.

The leaders of the company are the ones that dont worry about anyone else, leaders need to thing more about employes

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ingienería · Publicado hace 7 años

Answer - a whole new management team! Integrity, respect is needed. The current lot is in it to line their pockets at the expense of employee satisfaction. Take a serious look at the pay structure versus the industry. If you pay middle of the road, then expect mediocrity. you get what you pay for.

Brought me in for face to face when I was 1 of 2 candidates

Revisión Publicado hace un año

They provided a friendly atmosphere where they allowed me to show what I can bring to the table. It was so enjoyable that I turned down the chance of a better paid role elsewhere. I sold my skills and they sold the benefits of the company to me.

change the manager of costumer service because he is not a good leader

Revisión Review del Departamento de Ingienería · Publicado hace 7 años

when you treat me poorly, then its just a job. As a job, i'm in it for the compensation. Like any job, you are paying me to be here and perform. If I feel underpaid, my performance will reflect that. when a large group of people feeling the same, across several levels, then mediocrity rules

Overall work culture is great. Sometimes a single bad manager spoils the game
