Employee survey questions

The questions should read

  1. How many times have you thought about quitting? 976 times.
  2. Would you hire your boss, if you were the boss? If not? Why? If so, why?
  3. What improvements can the company make?
  4. Do you approve of our spending? Why? Or why not?
  5. Who is your least favorite person in your department?
  6. Is your pay acceptable? If not, prove it.
  7. If you could be in any position, which position and why?
  8. Do you actually enjoy your job? If yes, why? If no, why?
  9. Is your job up with the times?
  10. Do you feel micromanaged? On a scale from 1-10, how micromanaged do you feel?

The end.


Leadership Accountability

Many big, successful companies take feedback from employees regarding their leaders.

Verizon has only a one-way survey—from manager to employee—and never from employees to managers or leadership.

Like Amazon runs frequent surveys to get:
• Team health
• Leadership effectiveness
• Workplace satisfaction

They make sure that if someone is polluting the culture, they weed them out. Verizon needs this urgently if Dan is dreaming of any transformation.


All hands call

Looks like another 90 minutes of time waste is upon us... Here is what is going to be said:

1) We are awesome (according to our own selves of course).
2) We are winning against Microsoft and Citrix (again according to our selves).
3) Our customers love us (that's why they are leaving us, you see...).
4) Our technology is so futuristic (hence why we brought the 70s back in our SKO).

BTW %73.67 of you clicked on the phishing email that was sent the other day so you now have to take the wrath of big man DD and explain to him why you did not fight harder against the temptation to click on the URL.


Get someone else to host your call

If you can't pause your sniffling long enough to stay something, or mute your mic fast enough so that everyone else on the call doesn't have to hear it. Seriously, offload that responsibility until you are no longer forcing the entire call to hear you sniff every 10 seconds.


Gainwell Offshore Alignment Tracker (GOAT) Survey

I just got tasked with completion this survey. I did then basically take offshore over the coals.

It's a relationship that is not collaborative, and definitely not a partnership.

Offshore has no skin in the game, has no oncall duties. Why we have Offshore is stupid.

Offshore provides estimates, but they don't even present it to the customer, the onshore TFAL is expected to handle it.

I get that Gainwell does it to save money, but how is handled and executed is utter cr-p.

I'm currently still employed by Gainwell until I get a job elsewhere.


Startup Model for a "Fortune 500"

Welcome to Xerox, where we tout our Fortune 500 status (likely will fall pretty soon) while changing and adding new systems for our sales teams without sufficient training, no change in expectations, increasing the pressure, disincentivizing big sales, and not fixing the things that still don't work beforehand.

Should we fix the poor Hubspot integration before adding a totally new frontend? Nah! You'll be fine! Should we fix our client facing websites and services before changing demanding higher volume of sales? Nah! You just need to execute "faster". And the list goes ON and ON. Oh, and let's dissolve the sales training leaders while we're at it so new hires are at the mercy of the sales team they are joining, thus becoming a burden.

I now have 10X more responsibility I had before without 10X the pay. Once I get my next job, I am OUT of here. I wish everyone the best.


Clothing area

Had a member today comment on how hard it is to shop our clothing area because there is so much merchandise . She said at Costco it is so much easier to shop clothing there because it isn’t over crowded like Sam’s . I could do nothing but agree with her . We have so much of the same type clothing it is crazy . Don’t our clothing buyers realize they over buy so much .. it looks so junky


Facets G6

Whomever decided to migrate fully to Facets needs to be fired. I’ve never experienced such issues in my life. For a platform that is web based and updated, I feel like I’ve moved to the Middle Ages. It’s slow and dreadful and goes down often. Automation is severely lacking. How can LG possibly meet 1st pass? I feel like we’ve been set up to fail. Does anyone else feel this way?


Anyone lingering here that left for St!f€L?

Anyone here left EDJ for a competitor in the St. Louis area that starts with an S? I’d really love some honest feedback on the culture.

I’m currently down to the final two candidates for a role there, and it comes with about a 30% pay increase. I already know three people who work there, and they’ve all said the culture feels more genuine. Less “cult-y” than EDJ, and way less corporate jargon. No constant “circle back,” “put a pin in it,” or meetings just for the sake of having meetings instead of actually getting work done.

What I’m really looking for is a place with real people and a normal, grounded culture. A team that communicates like humans and focuses on results without all the fluff or being micromanaged by layers of leadership. I don’t even care that they are in the office now. I don’t want to pretend to be a fake anymore. I want someone honest who is gonna say “I don’t know, I’ll find out” instead of “that’s a good question, let me get back to you” (and never do).

That said, I’m nervous. The pay is better, but I’d be giving up PTO accrual, and I’ve heard the benefits aren’t as good and are higher than what we have now.

I’m honestly torn. I want to leave EDJ, but I also know the grass isn’t always greener. If you’ve made a similar move, I’d really appreciate hearing how it worked out for you.


Dear Directors!

To all the directors whining and trying to make your case for know declared surpluses. GOOD LUCK! You’re not as important as you think you are. Dan will do what Dan wants to do. Change some of your ridiculous metrics and you’ll find you need far less personnel. Smarten up!
