  • What are some of the best things about your team?
    Leveraging strengths, Leaders who empower and invest in development, ability to challenge norms and bring talents to benefit the team

Constructive Feedback From Seaman Corporation Employees

  • Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
    I believe I'm paid fairly for my job, but now that I am taking 1/2 the work from a soon to be retired associate, the pay doesn't justify that, especially if that retired associate isn't replaced and that work is then given to the new associate so I only have to do my normal job.
