Low pay and nepotism are king - Anonymous employee Blue Technologies Employee Review

Thank you for your feedback – it helps us to continually improve. We agree that there is room for improvement of communications within any company, and work at improving our own communications regularly. However we were surprised to hear you felt nepotism played a role in our work environment. Blue Technologies has experienced consistent growth since our inception, and with growth comes the opportunity to hire new people into the business. As such, we have established a robust, effective recruiting process that every applicant goes through to ensure we hire the best candidate for each job. Among our 200-person staff, that process has successfully qualified just 4 associates for employment with familial connections to company leadership. We were also surprised to hear of a disparity between male managers and female employees, as we are proud to have an even number of female managers to male managers. We take this comment seriously, and encourage any employee encountering a negative experience – gender-related or otherwise – to directly or anonymously communicate your feelings with HR to ensure your issues are appropriately addressed. Lastly, while we are sorry to hear you felt pay was on the low side, we strive to provide competitive compensation – which spans a rich benefits package, as well as wages paid. In fact, our benefits program has been shown to add as much as $10,000.00 to the value of the compensation plans we offer. From the very first month of employment, this package includes 401K with company match up to 4%, generous health care options, PTO, and opportunities for continuing education, among others. We sincerely hope all of our employees are happy at Blue Technologies, and welcome any feedback that helps us to continue building a work environment that is Committed to Excellence. For those who do not feel totally satisfied here, we wish them the best in their future endeavors.
