Brutal. Doesn't seem to ever change anything though, especially given the tone deaf inaugural town hall that we just stood through for an hour citing digital excellence when the presentation team couldn't even click through the deck.

Honest for the first time on one of those surveys. But worried the results will be blamed on the wrong people.

I was as honest with them as I am with the poor 21 year olds in my office. Especially when giving feedback around the bs accounting which penalizes the healthy accounts.

@leoburnett1 our dept gets chronically low scores in our agency to the point last year that I got pulled in for an additional 30 (srsly) questions re: what was good and what was bad in our dept. when asked why they said bad trends were observed and we were singled out as needing help. This being said, what's transpired between when I had that interview with HR and now would drastically skew my answers. Upside is at least it seems they're actually using the data.

Very much yes. 🖕🏻

Are people ever that positive on surveys?

I honestly didn't do it, survey kept crashing on me

A little bit too honest maybe, but if it makes for some positive change then great!

As I'm moving to a new role in a small company, I have a doubt about my salary structure like the Basic salary part is only 20,000 while my take home is 62k after all deductions.

I'm concerned because the leave encashment & other things totally depends on the basic salary.

Are there not any rules for the Basic salary to be at a certain % of CTC or it depends totally on the company?

Also PF deductions they are offering only 1800 p.m but considering 20000 basic it should be 12% of 20000 right?

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?
