Employee Experience company? - Anonymous employee WorkTango Employee Review

Thank you for sharing your perspective. I appreciate your mention of the areas where you feel we’re doing well; we are strong believers in integrating work and life, celebrating great performance, and providing solid benefits for our employees. We’ve also worked hard to be transparent - so that everyone on the team understands where we are headed, how we are doing against our goals, and, most importantly, how each team member is a valuable contributor to our success. At WorkTango, we have made significant strides in offering market competitive salaries and are committed to continuing to make progress. As we share with our employees every year, we take the responsibility of managing merit increases seriously and utilize multiple market data benchmark tools to remain competitive on pay. We’re still a small company, however, and so we can’t always compete with larger enterprise software companies in the US or Canada. With regard to our culture, it’s a critical part of the employee experience, as you note. I am convinced that our Tangoneers have a culture of genuine respect and appreciation for one another. We are continuing to evolve our culture - maintaining core attributes of empathy and respect as we infuse an ethos of performance and continuous improvement. From the leadership perspective, as WorkTango’s CEO, I put considerable personal effort into being transparent and authentic; but of course if there are ways I can do better, I would love to sit down and discuss. My (virtual) door is always open. I also encourage you to speak with your manager or our P&C team if you have ideas for changes to our programming, either formal or informal, to give you and other Tangoneers opportunities to participate and feel a greater sense of belonging. Finally, your view of WorkTango’s COO differs greatly from mine. She is capable, committed, and cares deeply about the success of this business and of her teams. She’s an incredibly hard worker, and someone who leads by example through collaboration and professionalism. We are transforming our business this year -- and transformation and change can be hard. I’m proud of the work that all of us, including our COO, have done - and are doing - to improve our ability to serve our customers and effectively deliver the WorkTango message to prospective customers. We’re not perfect - no one is - but we have come a long way in the past two years, and the business is better for it. My door is always open to all employees, and I am happy to discuss the above or any other topics that might help us work together better and succeed as a team. Patrick Manzo, CEO
