What is the best part about your compensation package?

I enjoy the fact that they give you vacation and personal days at the beginning of the year, as compared to a solely PTO based system.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

I believe the strict policies around controlling the employees lives need to go. There is no need for so many negative attendance/disciplinary policies, unless turnover is the goal.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

The lying and omission of truth. I don't know how many times I have told a temporary worker about the policies around the site, and they tell me that my management team told them something entirely different at the interview.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Actually seeing that people deserve a work-life balance. Overall reasonability. The management seems to believe that if there is a choice between your dying mother's deathbed and work, you should always choose work. Just seems wrong to most humans I talk to.
