An employee satisfaction survey is a tool used by HR leaders and managers to understand how employees feel about their work, team, leadership, and company culture. These surveys help identify what's working—and what needs to change.
Our generator includes:
Scaled questions (1–5, NPS-style) to track sentiment and performance over time
Open-ended questions to uncover deeper context, personal experiences, and suggestions
Each question comes tagged by category (e.g. #leadership
, #workload
, #growth_opportunity
).
Some great times to check in with your team:
- After organizational changes (e.g. reorgs, layoffs)
- Following onboarding or training periods
- During quarterly or annual review cycles
- When morale or performance dips are suspected
- As part of regular pulse checks
Satisfaction measures how content employees are with their roles, benefits, and work environment.
Engagement measures motivation, emotional commitment, and how invested employees feel in the company’s success.
Both are important, but satisfaction is often a leading indicator for turnover and morale.
Aim for 5–10 questions max. A shorter survey increases response rates and respects your team’s time. A good mix includes:
2–3 scaled questions (quantifiable)
3–5 open-ended questions (qualitative)
Absolutely. The questions generated are meant to be a starting point. You can edit, remove, or add your own based on your goals or the team’s situation. Each question is tagged to help you build the right mix.
You can run async voice check-ins with your team using UserCall—an AI-moderated interview tool that captures stories, themes, and emotion-rich insights, automatically summarized into reports. Great for HR teams who want to go beyond scores and see the why behind employee sentiment.
