The company I work at sent out an employee satisfaction survey – the results were pretty negative. So they voluntold some people in my department, including me, to gather feedback from our colleagues and then share it with leadership.
Well, we shared the feedback about why people were unhappy and what could be done. It's the usual stuff – better pay, better work-life balance (less insane deadlines, more working from home,…), more focus on well being (like getting comfortable chairs, renovating our 70 year old offices, getting a break room, standing desks for those asking, not cramming 4+ people into small offices, etc.).
Now keep in mind our site alone generates over $1 billion/year in profits. The projects my department works on make or break future hundreds of millions in profit.
Do you want to guess what the feedback of leadership is? They don't have a budget for actions, so anything we come up with needs to be able to be implemented essentially for free.
We're talking about a department of max 50 people here too… so no insane amounts of money are required. Oh and did I mention they're also scratching their heads about why employee turnover rates are high (most leave after 2ish years) and why they can't find anyone to fill positions?
