9yI will address your points in order.
I am glad you feel our benefits are good, and that we do not ask you to work overtime.
Our compensation currently runs at 107% of market. We also provide full matching (up to 6%) on 401(k), and both excellent health insurance and an onsite health clinic, day care, etc. Bonus pools and (for some) RSUs. We also think of our Peace Coliseum as a way of compensating colleagues as well.
The way decisions are being made has, in fact, changed. We have been pushing a great deal of decision-making to the front lines, through our Social Choice efforts. We have also organized more of the work into teams, each with its own captain. These two changes have shifted the locus of discretion towards knowledge frontiers and away from the traditional command-and-control hierarchy. As a result, there are a fair number of people who had more power in the previous structure, less in the new, and they are sore about it. I think that is what this review is manifesting.
