Outline

Appraisal cycles have started. The Employee satisfaction survey surveys have shown a 5-year low.

Your C-SAT results are a mixed bag. No real issue is surfacing, but the topline is shrinking.

The “Open-Ended” questions may have the minute details, but reading them all is not feasible :(

Also, even if read painstakingly, the task runs the risk of attribution bias: Subjectivity and intuition can be valuable but you are better served by applying an unbiased rule to measure the influence exerted by different topics on the outcome and pick those that stand out. Think impartiality.
