Needs to be more flexibility and innovative. Managers need to breakdown walls not build them up. My coworkers and I are just going through the motions with little motivation or support.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Building is old but being upgraded. Need to get people the right equipment and desk space for what they do. More lighting, space, and cleaner looking areas with updated furniture and colors.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Management needs to learn to be leaders. Travel policy needs changed for frequent flyers. Work/Life balance needs to be forefront. Give right compensation and time off for those that work well over 40hrs/wk. Give recognition to people doing good work.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership and Management are two different things. There are very few Leaders at Hach but lots of Managers who continue to look at spreadsheets for the magic answer and how to run things. Get your noses out of the spreadsheets and talk to people, walk around and get to know your people.

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

I feel undervalued for the work I put in. Lots of OT and not paid for. It is expected to do 50-60 hours a week and not get paid for it. Travel is a big reason for this and it is not compensated for in time off or pay. Lots of talk about Work/Life but no action when you want time with family
