The last year has been very hard. The culture in PM/Engineering is undefined, listless, and at times anxious. We keep losing people. We need a big overhaul to attract and retain employees.
It's good. I want to believe the picture that leadership paints about future prospects but there's a persistent feeling that we're setting ourselves up to over promise and under deliver on the cloud offering that so many resources have been poured into.
Salary in line with market rates
They're doing better with transparency
Excellent at communicating, even in the new all-remote environment.
Understanding that employees are people
More communication from leadership on timelines for major engineering initiative
Fair salary. Compensation to account for use of personal phone/internet plans.
We're losing people fast in PM/Engineering and it hasn't been acknowledged
Salary is generally fair -- although I hope that the freeze to raises is revisited soon
Some honest discussions in Product and Engineering about how they're structured and what they want to achieve.
Engineering too aggressively pivoting to new exciting project, at the expense of those "left behind" on legacy products.
The offers I am seeing from recruiters indicate Imprivata has not kept pace with the rest of the industry
They're fine. I just wouldn't go so far as to say I look forward to interacting. If there were a button for Neutral I'd pick that
I don't perceive it as a negative to not be excited about going to work. It's work. Who's excited about that except for perhaps the owners?
Transparency. The default position seems to be to play things close to the chest until everything is sorted out and known. Be more willing to share when things are still in the "we're working on it and will let you know" phase.
There's a pervasive feeling that our fate isn't in our own hands. Everyone is waiting for the shoe to drop, where we learn a board of faceless private equity guys is liquidating the company or selling it to some other PE firm to load us with debt and declare bankruptcy or something.
Difficult to answer right now. The food culture was wonderful, and the events were great. Now that we are remote, we may have to discover a new niche. But I am a huge fan of how the company has embraced remote work. I will happily sacrifice free food for never having to commute again!
