We’ve spent much time and effort implementing and communicating our new sales commission plans, which align with sales targets and the market.
If you have other ideas about improving cohesion across teams - always a challenge for companies - I'd love to hear them.
It is essential that all employees feel fairly compensated. We have transparent pay ranges, so if you want to understand your position in the range and discuss your growth, please talk with your manager and/or HR Business Partner.

Pros
It seemed the company was on an upswing
Cons
Morale is in the dumps. Layoffs have severed trust in the company. CEO has turned over his entire staff, meanwhile the issue is with a failure of vision, attention to project management execution, and meddling in the roadmap that produced no benefits
