Out of touch with workforce - Finance World Wide Technology Employee Review

Pros

WWT has great health benefits, 401k match, profit sharing, and community involvement. The company core value offer a solid base for a great culture when applied.

Cons

Opportunity and career growth are limited if you aren't close friends or related to someone in a position of power. Tenure is often given precedent over ability. Management consistently reminds employees that WWT has been designated as a "Great Place to Work," but does not address the growing concern that management is out of touch with its workforce as the company continues to grow. Poor managers are pervasive throughout the company. Leadership fails at coaching, mentoring, and molding their up and coming leaders. A program was designed to help in this area, but countless leaders treat this mandatory presentation without enthusiasm or commitment.

Thank you. We are very humbled and appreciative of our employees designating us as a great place to work. Thanks for acknowledging some of our benefits and our community involvement. As you may imagine I disagree that poor managers are pervasive throughout the company but you may be experiencing something unique. Town Halls are one way we gather feedback to help improve our culture. We also utilize Glassdoor, Employee Opinion Surveys, and Leadership Surveys. If you’d like to share specific concerns I encourage you to contact myself, our VP of HR, and/or our CFO. Thank you again and good luck.

Pros

Great early years culture… Smart / Top Tier Talent and Capabilities

Cons

Lost what made them special… culture made obvious shift from “People are our Greatest Resource” to “We are a Numbers Driven Organization”… Think that corporate event closing comment changed around 2018/2019
