This study investigated the relationship between organizational culture and employee
engagement at the Philippine Electronics and Communication Institute of Technology,
Inc. (PECIT, Inc.). The researchers used a descriptive-correlational research design
to describe the organizational culture and engagement and determine the relationship
between the study variables. The study’s respondents were regular employees at
PECIT, Inc., and thirty (30) respondents participated. They chose them because they
experienced firsthand knowledge of the company’s culture. This study employed mean
scores and Pearson correlation to examine employees’ perceptions of organizational
culture and engagement levels. The study showed that PECIT, Inc. employees boast
a positive corporate culture and strongly agree on empowerment, collaboration,
growth opportunities, and aligned values. However, dedication received the lowest
engagement score, though still optimistic overall. This highlights the importance of
fostering dedication alongside other engagement aspects for maximized productivity
and performance.
