2015 FedView Survey Results for the Millennium Challenge Corporation
- Interpretation of Results: MCC conducted its 9th Employee Viewpoint Survey (EVS) in Fiscal Year 2015. Survey results were largely lower from FY14. MCC saw declines across survey categories but the largest declines in favorable ratings were with questions related to leadership and overall satisfaction. MCC showed some improvement on the question concerning employee concerns with security threats. Questions concerning pay raises/awards and performance also improved. MCC’s strengths remain the mission and the commitment by employees to carry out that mission. MCC also maintains a work environment that is “supportive, fair and open” based on OPM’s new inclusion measure. MCC’s challenges, however, remain leadership and overall satisfaction.
- How the survey was conducted: The survey was conducted online from June 03 to June 30, 2015.
- Description of sample: All 282 MCC employees were surveyed.
- Survey items and response choices: See the tables on the following pages.
- Number of employees surveyed, number who responded, and representativeness of respondents: Of the 282 employees surveyed, 223 responded, for a 79% response rate. These respondents are representative of the population.
