Pros

There are some people who are genuine, but the general population is not driven towards helping the customers succeed

Cons

They don't practice what they preach. Upper management does not respond to new ideas and certainly does not reward successful behaviors.

First, thank you for your 6 years of commitment and contribution to the company. You saw extraordinary growth in the company and I’m certain you were an important part of that trajectory. All feedback is important to us and I am disappointed to hear you did not feel our company rewards those who are deserving. I would respectfully disagree given the positive feedback we consistently hear, specific to this topic, from employees in our annual anonymous surveys. Those surveys also tell us where we need to be better. In that spirit, though you are no longer with us, I encourage you to contact me directly so I can hear more about your experience. – Steve Pemberton, CHRO

Thank you for sharing your feedback and for recognizing the strong relationships, flexibility, and benefits that many employees value at Workhuman. We recognize that customer-facing roles can be fast-paced and that experiences can vary across teams. As our business continues to mature, we're investing in stronger planning, clearer prioritization, and more effective ways of working across the organization. We'd also note that while recognition awards are an important part of our Total Rewards philosophy and are reflected in employees' Total Rewards statements, they are separate from base salary and bonus compensation. Recognition is first and foremost about celebrating meaningful contributions and impact, while also providing employees with tangible rewards for the great work they do. We know there is always more to do, and we remain committed to listening, learning, and improving the employee experience as we continue to grow. Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective.
