How does CultureMonkey run one survey across several companies?
The whole group runs in one CultureMonkey account. Each operating company is a business group and its divisions are business units. One survey goes to everyone. Each company's HR is scoped to its own business group, so they see only their company's results, while group HR and leadership see the consolidated score and every company side by side. The survey's anonymity minimum, never below 3, applies to every cut.
Your group
Your whole group, in one account
Every employee carries their company, division, team, site and manager, so one survey reports at every level.
02Operating companies
Each company is a business group
Its HR is scoped to it and sees only its own people. Its employees see their own company's logo on the survey.
03Divisions and brands
Business units split a company further
Divisions, brands or legal entities you can report on, and scope a division head to.
04Teams, sites and managers
Down to every manager
Teams, locations and the reporting line from your HRIS sit under each company, so each manager reads their own team.
Access
Who sees what
Each company's HR is scoped to its own company. The scope holds on every report, dashboard and export they open.
| Results | Every company and the group score | Their company | Their division | Their own team |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Companies side by side | Yes | No | No | No |
| Comment text | Yes | Your choice | Your choice | Their team, or off |
| Org chart | Whole group | Within their company | Within their division | No |
Leaders who only read results can have a view-only reports role, with no comment access.
The survey
One survey across every company
One calendar and one set of core questions, with room for what each company needs.
A shared core, plus company sections
Everyone answers the same core questions, so companies compare like for like. Add a section that only one company's employees see.
Each company's own brand
Employees see their own company's logo on the survey, not the parent group's.
Every employee reached
Email, SMS, WhatsApp, QR codes and kiosks in their own language, so plant and field teams answer too.
While it runs
Participation, company by company
Watch the response rate for each company while the survey is live, then break it down by division, location, team or manager. Boost Participation emails the managers whose teams haven't answered yet.
Every company side by side. No small team exposed.
- 01
Compare every company in one heatmap
Business group is a breakdown beside location, team and manager.
- 02
Open one company to go deeper
Its divisions, sites, teams and managers, from the same survey.
- 03
Benchmark against the group and your industry
Each company against the group average, and the group against industry benchmarks for your industry and size.
- 04
Read each company's comments by theme
Comments are grouped by driver with a positive, mixed and negative split. Each company's HR sees only its own, filtered by division, site, team or manager.
- 05
One anonymity minimum, on screen and in exports
It is set per survey and is never below 3, so a small team in a small company stays hidden. Exports follow the same rules, so a download never shows more than the screen.
After the survey
From results to action, in every company
Managers act on their own team's results, and group HR sees whether the work is getting done.
Managers
Focus areas for every manager
Each manager sees their team's strengths and focus areas, and turns one into an action from their dashboard or a template.
Every company
Actions with an owner and a deadline
Each action has a driver, an owner and a due date, and moves across a board from To Do to Completed.
Group HR
Follow-through across the group
The action summary rolls every action into one view: totals, status, completion rate, and who owns what.
Setup
HR data from more than one HRIS
Each company can keep its own HR system. Everyone still lands in one group survey.
Bring in each company's people
Connect each company's HRIS, such as SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle, Workday or UKG, or send employees by API, SFTP or CSV. During onboarding our team sets up each company as a business group and maps your people to it.
See integrationsScope each company's HR
Make each company's HR a sub admin scoped to their business group, and decide whether they read comments as well as scores.
Launch one group survey
Send it to everyone. Each company's HR follows its own participation, and group HR follows the whole group.
Send results to your BI
If the group reports in Power BI, Tableau, BigQuery, Azure Synapse or Amazon S3, results sync on a schedule with the anonymity rules kept.

"When we were just using forms, we were limited to just sentiment information and eNPS information across our portfolio of companies. We couldn't really drill down into it beyond the company level."

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can each company's HR see only its own results?
Yes. Each company's HR is a sub admin scoped to that company's business group. The scope is a boundary on their whole account, not a filter they can switch off: reports, participation, dashboards and comments all stop at their company.
Can group leadership see a consolidated score?
Yes. Group HR and leadership see the group score across every company, compare companies side by side in the heatmap, and open any company to read its divisions, teams and managers.
Can a company's HR see scores without seeing comments?
Yes. Comment access for sub admins is a separate setting from report access, and our team sets it for your account. Leaders who should only read reports can have a view-only reports role, which has no comment access.
Can each company add its own questions?
Yes. Keep a shared core so the group score compares like for like, then add sections that only one company's employees see. Section rules can use business group, business unit, location, team and other employee attributes.
Our companies run different HR systems. Does that work?
Yes. Each company's employees can come from its own HRIS, such as SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle, Workday or UKG, or by API, SFTP or CSV. During onboarding our team sets up each company as a business group and maps your people to it, so everyone lands in one group survey.
How do we add a company we just acquired?
Add it as a business group, bring its employees in from its HRIS or a file, and scope its HR to it. Its people join the next group survey, and its results sit beside every other company from the first survey on.
Do we need a separate CultureMonkey account for each company?
No. Run the group in one account with a business group per company. That is what gives leadership one consolidated score while each company's HR stays inside its own results.
Can group and company admins sign in with single sign-on?
Yes. Admins, sub admins and managers sign in through SAML single sign-on with Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, OneLogin or any SAML 2.0 provider. Employees answer the survey through a personal link, so they never need a login.
Can we track participation company by company?
Yes. The participation report breaks the response rate down by business group, business unit, location, team or manager while the survey runs, and Boost Participation emails the managers whose teams haven't answered yet.
Can each company's HR read its own comment themes?
Yes, if you give them comment access. Comments are grouped by driver with a positive, mixed and negative split, and a company's HR sees only its own company's comments, filtered by division, location, team or manager. Comments written in other languages can be translated; our team switches this on for your account.
Can each company have its own anonymity threshold?
The minimum is set per survey and applies to every company, division and team in it, on screen and in exports, and it is never below 3. If one company has a stricter rule, such as a works council agreement, set the group survey to that number.
