CareerBuilder reviews

Apollo came in, fired 4% of the employees at once, demoted many more (aimed to get people to quit (no severance)), followed by several more rounds of smaller layoffs. All of the culture was sucked out and they restructured the 401K to really hurt the employees. Needless to say, it's not a great place to work anymore, everybody I know is looking for a new job, so there should be plenty of openings for anybody that's interested...but I would recommend google searching "CareerBuilder and Sexual Harassment Lawsuit" . I hope I'm not here when you get here.

Employees are leaving in droves. Nearly everyone is looking for a new gig. Apollo Global's acquisition of CareerBuilder was a bad deal for employees. Non-sales roles are paid below market rate. Policy changes to bonus/401k contributions punish everyone including loyal employees and people that leave. Leadership sells the story, "we are rewarding people who stay and write the next chapter in CareerBuilder's legacy". But the truth is CareerBuilder has a retention problem and changing the timing on bonus/401k distributions saves money on turnover. CareerBuilder had a lot of bloat prior to the Apollo acquisition, but the dedication to eroding benefits when the company is highly profitable is an alarming trend (RIP summer hours). Salaries for non-sales are weak. This year we received 2% pay increases 4 months delayed that weren't back-paid to Jan 1. Leadership sells the narrative, "10% of the workforce received promotions and merit increases," but the reality is 35+% of the workforce left and their responibilities fell on the backs of those who stuck around. Most people have more responsibilities for the same pay and the same title.
