Stank tried to spin the metric that 79% of the employees that did respond felt committed and engaged and used that number as support for his policies. He did not share the next metric that if only 79% of those who responded felt engaged/committed, then it is a easy assumption to make that really only about 60% of the total work force felt committed and engaged.
Remember, the C-Suite will ignore the responses that do not support their ideology and strategy, and outright lie about what the employees really feel is important.
499/600 and 875/900 are the real survey numbers.

If the response rate is low, but the responses are all the bootlickers, then they will quote the positive scores.
If the response rate is high, but the responses are negative, they will celebrate the response rate.
There isn’t a way where they acknowledge anything.
Whatever the numbers are is irrelevant. It will be spun to 'I'm great. The employees don't know what they're talking about. '
@ag I think I would rather have a higher results with a much lower participation rate. Stank cannot explain away the participation rate though I am sure he will come up with something.
If you dont take it then the results will only be from bootlickers and look too positive. We can’t let them have that either. Not sure which is worse.
@ae That was my perspective previously. However, the spin this last year and the callous attitude/response by the Big Stank gives me absolutely no reason to give him my opinion since he does not care anyway. He can pound sand with his bald head.
I think we should put it at 100% response rate and tell them how we really feel. Going to be hard to ignore that 1/2 the work force feels detached. Not responding is the same as agreeing with the current policies. They’ll just ignore you while the rest lie about being excited to work here and everything is awesome falsehood. We should all respond, give it to them full blast.
The survey says….
No response from me!
