What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Assessing the demands of the job.

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

Again, the neverending workload, the amount of unchecked control supervisors can have, micromanagement, and pay that is insufficient.

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

I'd prefer to have less work or more money. There's a diagram of not being able to get high quality, in a short amount of time for free. You get to pick a combination of the two, but never three.
