Review from Engineering Dept

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

Pay is below typical industry rate for work. Raises are small.

Feel under valued due to the prevelant 'old white boy's' club in leadership. Improvements in office technologies, diversity, and benefits.
