Rewind Response
4yThank you for your feedback and for your honesty. Please know that we hear you. While we strive every day to do better and be better, we want to share some of our progress and upcoming initiatives to address some of your concerns:
Last quarter we established a DEI committee with sponsors across all levels of the organization to review and conduct an audit of internal practices for fairness and improvements
We understand how important leadership is in an employee’s journey and have OKRs surrounding manager training and performance management development. We plan to tackle the big subjects of gender, race and fairness during these development experiences as we know they are important and deserve more care
At Rewind we have ambitious goals and we’re proud to often meet them with our team. We put infrastructure in place to help our team achieve our goals together. Sometimes this requires us to live our value of ‘being comfortable being uncomfortable’ but we are always eager to listen to our team’s feedback and make changes as we grow
We have formally launched a career laddering and competency tool that will help us continue to progress our team so that they can build their career at Rewind and we will be using the competencies throughout our hiring process to remove bias. We love to involve our team during the hiring process but we have and will always hire based on the best candidate for the role
While we are proud of our employee engagement scores and the fact that turnover remains less than 2% at Rewind, we constantly strive to improve. Thank you for taking the time to call us out on some areas which you feel deserve attention. Should you be interested, we would be happy to set up a time to speak with you personally to discuss further. In the meantime, we want you to know that your feedback is being acted on and that your voice is heard. Reach out to our VP People amanda.gordon@rewind.io or to our People team at people.ops@rewind.io anytime.
