It's been a bumpy road, there have been plenty of problems and stress, but we have overcome and done our best to be a cohesive unit. Things are slowly but surely moving into a more comfortable and welcoming environment.

Recent improvements in communications and DE&I training have made great strides in creating compassionate and understanding management.

Communicating better, cut back on cliques, bullying, and backbiting, learning how to leave personal prejudice and politics at home.

I like all the higher up people. I just feel like the many of us get overlooked and many issues go unaddressed.

The majority of my team is easy going and driven to succeed. We all collaborate to make the job as streamlined as possible.

I love that my workflow becomes like a dance throughout my day, and I can be proud of the viewable results of my hard work.

I love how inclusive this company is, and how driven to teach others about how diversity and inclusion benefits the company (and society!) as a whole.

I love how the company over all has a great focus on employee care, mental health, and diversity and inclusion, however it is not really implemented in some offices.

Office drama and bullying, favoritism, and underhanded discrimination. Better raises are needed, action needs taken on reported issues, less political judgment, more positive reinforcement, and better diversity acceptance training for local management.

Despite working full time plus overtime, ends still don't meet in today's inflated society. The average pay in the state of IL needed to afford to rent even a one bedroom apartment is $21 an hour and many of us have families. Also ins. premiums are more expensive than ever and barely cover anything.

As inflation continues to increase, we get tiny little 2-3 percent yearly "merit" raises that do us no good. If we get one at all. And we have been lied to, being told all the raises were the same- they were not by any means. Any raise that is less than the inflation rate is, in essence, a demotion.
