Company is way too top heavy. Management is more concerned with keeping their high salaries, bonuses, and stock options at the expense of the those who make the company run. Salaries are low. MBO's for yearly review when raises are 3% or under. Raises are always eaten up with increase in Health premiums so there really is no reward for doing a good job. Another cause for low morale. Company wants to save money and cut expenses but they need to look at the jobs that could be eliminated like the "fluff" ones that really do not add any value but cost money. Management does not respect or appreciate the workers who do an excellent job, and are loyal, dedicated and make them look good. Management does not want to hear criticism from the people who deal with the day to day processes even when the criticisms are valid. There are people who get "special treatment" and appear to do very little work. Communication in departments is terrible. FSC finds out about things that we all should know about from the field employees who call asking questions we know nothing about. If we are all on the same team, why the secrecy? We need a suggestion box where employees can make suggestions to improve a process, or improve morale, or save money for the company by getting rid of things that are unnecessary or take away time needed to get the day to day job done....too many meetings that can be wrapped up in 15 minutes that go on for hours. Suggestion box would need to be anonymous so employees will be truthful without fear of jeopardizing their job.
