It's been a good journey for me so far within the company. The recent acquisition and most recent process changes have been the hardest part since it feels like I had absolutely zero input or had my opinion asked. More communication and planning ahead of time and better compensation are what I need
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
Ever since being acquired the company has made many changes that I believe have negatively impacted the company. Over the past 10-12 months, the changes have been so consistent and plentiful that it feels like constantly being under water. I have not felt valued at all in the same timeframe.
What makes you most happy at work?
To be honest, not a lot these days. It goes back again to the people that I work with.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
The people are what make this company and my team enjoyable. Most everyone is friendly and easy enough to get along with.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
The type and amount of work that I do feels like it is more than what my salary shows, especially when compared to market rate for similar positions.
What are some of the best things about your team?
The people themselves seem to be nice, genuine people and nobody makes any waves. We also seem to have the same mindset when it comes to the current state of the company.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
The constant change of responsibilities which has increased workload over the past year without any significant increase in compensation is reason 1. We are very much on the low side of market average for my position.
What are some of the best things about your team?
People's personalities are ones that I can get along with and work together well with. There are a few people that I may not reach out to as much, but more than happy to help the entire team.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
There has been consistent loss and turnover, especially of talented employees, and leadership doesn't seem to be acknowledging this or the reasons for the turnover. There is also a very low morale it seems that is not being acknowledged.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
As mentioned previously, the people who I work with are nice people both to work with and in general. The company does good at hiring those type of people even if they might not be the best at what they do.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Being acquired typically means that most, if not all, of the leadership team is changed over. During this change over, the only leaders who I feel have the employees best interest at hand are the ones who remain from the previous regime.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
There is massive change currently that was not handled well at all and the structure that is being implemented was not very well thought out from a collaborative effort. You're going to cause massive friction between departments. I think more input from your actual employees first would be a start.
