Company culture is going downhill. Pay scale is not matching local rates. There is very little incentive for hard work. There is a general feeling of disengagement over the last year.

Revisión

Decent work life balance and great teammates let down by directionless management, poor pay and benefits packages, lack of transparency, lack of clarity on opportunites for advancement.

Employees are undervalued. Lots of talk about how to improve things but little meaningful action. Plenty of spin on how negative things are actually good. The two main positives in the past were coworkers and work/life balance, but the balance is very team dependant, some are overworked.

Base salary and TC more in line with salary reports in this region.

Revisión
¿Qué es lo que te hace más feliz en el trabajo?

Putting my best effort into tasks, helping to grow the junior members of my team.

Revisión
¿Qué son algunas de las mejores cosas de tu equipo?

Everyone is hard working, communicative and we're all happy to get involved and help each other out across teams.

Revisión
¿Qué es lo más positivo de la cultura y el ambiente de tu empresa?

My peers, my direct teammates, my immediate manager. Not to be confused with higher level exec team and other management.

Revisión
¿Qué es lo que te hace más feliz en el trabajo?

The ability to get involved with teams outside my usual role, and the ability to innovate methodologies and processes within my department.

Revisión
¿Qué son algunas de las mejores cosas de tu equipo?

Great cammaraderie. I've been here a long time, worked with a wide range of people and can't say I've had a meaningfully bad experience with anyone internally.

Revisión
¿Qué necesita mejorar el equipo directivo?

The pay scale is extremely low for the level of responsbility in the role. This has been true for years now, even as the company brags about financial success.

Revisión
¿Por qué te sientes menospreciado y que podría hacerte sentir mejor sobre tu compensación?

The compensation package is ~25-30% below benchmark for salary surveys in this region. The pay needs to improve substantially. Other benefits keep being removed or decreased, below what is offered in other companies.

Revisión
¿Qué es lo más positivo de la cultura y el ambiente de tu empresa?

The people are all wonderful. The company puts an emphasis on exercise and making sure we don't overwork and burnout out. Although sometimes we aren't given the support to take that time with difficult customers.

Revisión
¿Qué son algunas de las mejores cosas de tu equipo?

Everyone can be themselves. Everyone is supportive. There's real team spirit and collegiality. "Collegiality" is a company buzz word, but I can honestly say the culture embodies it. Not everything is perfect, but the people are genuinely fantastic.

Revisión
¿Qué necesita mejorar el equipo directivo?

Evaluating fair salary. Being continually told that the company is doing extremely well and breaking financial targets is frustrating when it goes along with messages that pay will continue to be below average, and that skilled people leaving is somehow good.

Revisión
¿Por qué te sientes menospreciado y que podría hacerte sentir mejor sobre tu compensación?

Salary packages here fall 20-30% below average for this sector. This is backed up by every available salary index, and also anecdotally when comparing with peers working elsewhere. There's no way to make this better other than to address it. Even 5% below average would be acceptable.

Revisión
¿Por qué te sientes menospreciado y que podría hacerte sentir mejor sobre tu compensación?

The salary, LTI and bonus is at the lower end or below salary bands in all national salary guides. This is despite excellent feedback from my manager in all years I've been with Guidewire. I have no clear way on how to have my efforts reflected in a higher salary other than to "keep doing as I am."
