Poseida engages in a listening platform called the Poseida Pulse (the “Pulse”). The Pulse is an employee engagement survey run from a third-party platform to maintain anonymity and is run every six months. The first survey of the year is the primary Pulse, and the data is used to fuel a Corporate Action Planning Team that analyzes the data and takes action on an Enterprise level. In addition, functional leaders receive data to take action in their functional areas. The second survey of the year six months later is the “Pulse Check,” where we assess how we did in response to the feedback. The questions are intentionally prospective to create momentum around maintaining or enhancing Poseida as a best place to work in addition to standard engagement measures. Poseida’s participation rate in every survey thus far has been over 85% with 800 to 1,000 individual comments in response!
Our company fosters a collaborative culture through open communication channels, transparent decision-making processes, and inclusive team environments. We encourage sharing ideas, actively listening to each other, and valuing diverse perspectives. Meaningful team meetings, brainstorming sessions, and collaborative projects are integral to everyday workflow. Ultimately, we prioritize mutual respect, trust, and recognition of individual contributions, which creates an atmosphere where everyone feels empowered to contribute their best work towards shared goals. This culture not only enhances productivity but also cultivates innovation and strengthens team bonds.
In addition to standard pay elements (salary, bonus, equity), Poseida offers the opportunity for employees to purchase equity in the Company through an Employee Stock Purchase Plan in which they can purchase shares at a discounted price two times per year. We also value recognition and feedback and have created recognition programs to foster the environment of valuing our team. These awards can be individual or team and include a CEO Award for Making Waves, a C-Level Award for Cultural Excellence, C-Level Award for Operational Excellence, Spot Bonus Program and a real-time recognition platform leveraging our HRIS.
