Pros

Benefits are good. Comp is ok. Need to do a better job recognizing key performers. The engineering talent is very good. The VP of my group is a genius.

Cons

The pay on my team has fallen behind and my employees are getting calls from larger companies for large increases. It makes others on the team curious. I spoke with HR about it and they said they are working on some things for 2019. The HR people are really nice, but we don't see changes happening soon enough. The company seems to be performing well, but the direction of my product group is unclear. We want to grow, but spirits are not high.

Genesys Response

Thank you for your thoughtful and constructive review. Our people are what makes Genesys great, and of course, we don’t want to lose our greatest talent to other companies. We regularly evaluate our compensation strategies and adjust accordingly where we think we need to. I encourage you to engage directly with your (brilliant!) VP on your concerns about direction as well as compensation if you haven’t already. Samantha and John should also be able to work with you on the latter topic - like you, they are based in Indy. You should also feel free to set up time with me directly if you want to talk. Best, Tracy (Tracy Cote, Chief People Officer)

Pros

Interesting take on customer experience using AI. Good pay for the role.

Cons

Favoritism amongst certain individuals and teams. I've heard that some sellers were removed from accounts just as they were going to close deals and therefore lost their commission. The messaging is that you can speak to any leader but that is not always the case.
