A common theme with the employee satisfaction survey results was a lack of communication/ cooperation between departments. We'd love to hear your suggestions about this issue. Please respond in the comments!

• "More communication from the top, direction, end goal, etc."
• "Some kind of communication on what the organization's mission is, each division/department's role in it, and what the plan is to make it better."
• "I would like to see clear and regular communication from all levels of management on vision, direction, status, and what concrete actions drive it."

• "Instead of conducting an anonymous survey--ask these same questions in small groups so that we can learn from each other and break down the silos."

• "Have more fun outings, its hard when you start and try to break the ice with new people. It would be awesome to have a monthly social day for everyone to get together and catch up and learn from each other, not just work but other things, and everyone should attend.
  eg: Have IT department participate in the 5K run for cancer"
• In Charlestown, we need more amenities: lounge room, play room, etc. so that we can balance work and relaxation..
• More opportunities to engage and connect with IT co-workers at both locations (Medical School & South Street)

• “I would add some type of recognition program where high quality employees are awarded bonuses for their work.”
• “make the employees feel as if they are important and matter to the organization and not just worker bees taking on more and more work time after time”
