Good company with a lot of opportunity to become better. But, we have continuously fallen short of the mark of greatness.

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

Medela was great to work for when there seemed to be a future for my career. Now with the removal of top talent incentives, my career has dead-ended and I am actively seeking new opportunities outside of the company.

What are some of the best things about your team?

We all work together and accomplish our goals.

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

No incentives for top talent.

What are some of the best things about your team?

We always have cover for each other when necessary to maintain quality work.

What makes you most happy at work?

When I am allowed to work on projects that advance the capabilities of the company.

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

Comparatively, I make less than similar roles. Both within the and outside the company.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Reward employees instead of firing and taking away incentives. Medela has become stagnant due to poor incentives.

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

There have been zero merit increases and promotions for top talent for over 2 years. In addition, bonuses were cut by 30%. Bring those back.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Technologically moving into the present, let alone future, when it comes to tools and applications needed to get our jobs done. Fully invest and train on those technologies. Too many times have I experienced and heard that coworkers must work on limited accessibility and training.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Retaining top talent. There have been no merit increases or promotions for top talent for over 2 years. In addition to that lack of incentive, bonuses for top talent have been reduced by 30%. The top talent is vacating Medela at an accelerated rate. Promotions, Merit Increases, and Bonuses!!!!!!
