Company Culture Survey
Workplace Culture Surveys measure what your company is really like—not what leadership hopes it’s like. They explore the values, behaviors, and everyday interactions that define how your team works together.
Unlike employee engagement surveys, ‘culture surveys’ reveal alignment (or disconnect) between stated values and lived experience. Shape stronger teams, diagnose toxic dynamics, and build a workplace that lives its values.

Frequently Asked Questions
A workplace culture survey is a research tool that measures how employees perceive the values, norms, behaviors, and leadership practices within your organization. Unlike employee engagement surveys, workplace culture surveys assess how closely your company’s stated values align with its actual day-to-day culture.
While both surveys gather employee feedback, they focus on different things. Employee engagement surveys measure motivation, fulfillment, and willingness to go the extra mile. Workplace culture surveys, on the other hand, assess the shared beliefs, behaviors, and expectations that shape your work environment. Culture surveys uncover what’s actually happening beneath the surface.
Company culture surveys measure:
- Alignment with the organization’s values
- Trust in leadership and coworkers
- Communication styles and transparency
- Diversity, equity, and inclusion
- Norms around work-life balance
- Psychological safety and accountability
- Whether employees feel valued and respected
These insights help create a more positive company culture and inform targeted initiatives that lead to business success.
Culture surveys help leaders track trends, identify toxic dynamics, and reinforce the values that drive performance. By understanding how employees perceive your organization’s culture, you can make smarter decisions about management, hiring, training, and communication.
They also support long-term employee satisfaction, retention, and the creation of a healthy work environment.
We use built-in anonymity protocols and third-party administration to create a safe space for honest feedback. Employees are more likely to provide candid, valuable insights when they know their responses are confidential and won’t be traced back to them.
Organizational culture surveys are a type of workplace culture survey focused on the values and behaviors that shape how an entire organization operates. These surveys assess everything from leadership ethics to how the entire company approaches collaboration, learning, and accountability.
It depends on your goals and the pace of organizational change. Many companies run culture surveys annually or biannually. For faster-growing or rapidly changing companies, more frequent pulse surveys can help track shifts in culture over time.
Yes. While culture surveys don’t directly measure satisfaction, they reveal the underlying factors—like fairness, inclusion, and communication—that enhance employee satisfaction. Addressing these issues leads to a more positive workplace culture and better retention.
How do you analyze the survey results?
We provide a full-service analysis that includes:
- Quantitative data: Scores and trends on key indicators
- Qualitative feedback: The most common open-ended themes, ranked by frequency and importance
- Segmented insights: Breakdowns by department, tenure, location, and more
- Actionable insights: Specific areas to prioritize for improving workplace culture
You’ll receive a report that’s easy to understand—and ready to present to key stakeholders.
Absolutely. Our surveys explore how employees from diverse perspectives experience your workplace, including whether they feel heard, included, and treated fairly. These results can inform your DEI strategy and help promote diversity in meaningful ways.
Yes. In fact, remote and hybrid teams often develop subcultures that leadership may not see. Workplace culture surveys help you understand the experience of all employees, no matter where they work.
We’re not just a platform—we’re a full-service employee survey company that delivers clear insights and actionable recommendations. Unlike software tools that leave you interpreting raw data, we design, distribute, and analyze your survey—end to end.
Plus, we combine expert-written employee survey questions with deep CX and organizational strategy expertise. You don’t just get data—you get clarity.

Workplace Culture Surveys: A Full-Picture View of Company Reality
Understanding your company’s culture isn’t about checking boxes or writing the perfect mission statement. It’s about knowing what your workplace feels like day to day—and whether your values actually come to life in how employees interact, make decisions, and feel about their work. That’s where workplace culture surveys come in.
As a leading employee survey company providing end-to-end CX strategy, Interaction Metrics manages your culture surveys from start to finish. We deliver the insights that show whether you’re building a positive work environment or unintentionally fostering misalignment, inequity, or burnout.
What Are Workplace Culture Surveys?
Workplace culture surveys are structured feedback tools designed to reveal how employees perceive their day-to-day work experience. Unlike employee engagement surveys, which focus on motivation and effort, company culture surveys investigate how values, expectations, and leadership actually play out.
They measure whether employees feel respected, included, and aligned with their organization’s mission, or if there’s a disconnect between what’s said and what’s done.
Why Workplace Culture Matters
A healthy workplace culture improves everything from employee morale to job satisfaction, retention, and productivity. When employees feel like they belong, they’re more likely to contribute new ideas, stay longer, and go the extra mile. In fact, Harvard Business Review finds that strong, adaptive cultures are a key driver of long-term business success.
On the flip side, a toxic or unclear culture can lead to employee burnout, high turnover, and even damage to the brand. And while engagement metrics can hint at these issues, only organizational culture surveys go deep enough to show what’s driving the experience.
What Do Culture Surveys Measure?
Our company culture surveys are customized to reflect your company’s core values and business goals. We measure a mix of:
- Leadership behavior and communication
- Psychological safety and accountability
- Equity, inclusion, and respect
- Workload expectations and work-life balance
- Collaboration norms and decision-making processes
We also include open-ended prompts to capture qualitative feedback that might be missed by numerical ratings alone. These comments often provide the most valuable insights into what employees are actually thinking.
Culture Surveys vs. Engagement Surveys
It’s important to understand the difference. While employee engagement surveys focus on energy, motivation, and commitment, culture surveys examine whether the organization’s culture aligns with its stated values.
In other words, engagement shows you how invested employees are. Culture shows you what they’re investing in.
A company can have high engagement but still struggle with misaligned or toxic behaviors. That’s why you need both engagement and culture assessments as part of your overall employee survey services strategy.
Designed for Clarity, Not Just Data
Software tools promise “insights,” but often deliver charts you have to decipher yourself. As a full-service employee survey company, we go far beyond that.
We write your questions, administer your organizational culture survey, analyze the survey responses, and present results in a clear, actionable format. Your report won’t be a wall of graphs—it will be a prioritized action plan.
We also protect anonymity at every step. That’s why our culture surveys get honest, thoughtful responses that reflect what employees are really feeling.
What the Results Reveal
When done right, company culture survey results surface:
- Areas where values aren’t being lived
- Differences in how teams experience the work environment
- Whether employees feel valued and safe to speak up
- Where to launch targeted initiatives
- Gaps between leadership perception and employee reality
They also help you track trends over time, benchmarking culture improvements alongside key business outcomes.
DEI and Workplace Culture
Culture and inclusion are inseparable. Our surveys are structured to reveal how employees from diverse perspectives experience your workplace. Are opportunities evenly distributed? Are all voices heard? Do you have an inclusive culture that truly promotes diversity? When designed thoughtfully, these surveys can inform policies that truly foster inclusion.
These questions matter not just for ethics, but for business success. Companies with high levels of inclusion consistently outperform their peers in innovation and retention.
Your Culture Survey, Managed Start to Finish
As your survey company for CX, we manage every aspect of your organizational culture survey, including:
- Custom survey design aligned to your goals and values
- Setup and distribution with anonymity protections
- Data analysis that includes both quantitative data and open-text analysis
- Strategic reporting for key stakeholders
This isn’t a plug-and-play tool. It’s a real partnership.
Benefits of Improving Workplace Culture
When you act on the insights from your workplace culture surveys, you can:
- Improve employee satisfaction and reduce attrition
- Increase psychological safety and trust
- Foster a more positive culture that aligns with your mission
- Boost innovation through inclusion and continuous learning
- Create a more engaged workforce
Culture is not a soft issue. It’s a performance driver.
