Pros

Good place for entry-level sales people looking to get promoted quickly.

Cons

CareerBuilder used to be one of the best companies to work for but that has dramatically changed over the past couple of years. Most of the good people have left and the culture is now toxic.

Pros

At this point none. This company used to be great but it has slowly gotten worse to the point it’s at now

Cons

Irina is awful. Cutting pay in sales roles. Got rid of trip. They spin a web of lies. John Smith is a moron.

Pros

The biggest Pro are the people at CareerBuilder. Some of the best, most talented and fun are people I met while working at CareerBuilder. While a majority of them have moved on great people are still working at CB. If you are looking at reviews from over a year ago those Pros no longer exist. Things such as half day Fridays, 401k match (you have to make it through the year), promotions, open door policy with leadership (CB leaders are no longer leaders. Apollo is pulling the strings and leadership is just as much in the dark as the AE's) and top performer awards/trips are a few examples of Pro's that no-longer exist.

Cons

Honestly, I spent 6+ years at CareerBuilder and I LOVED the majority it. When things started to get really bad I left for a great new opportunity. I didn't write this review to bash CB but I want people to understand that CB is no longer running the show. Apollo is now in charge and if you read reviews of Apollo or companies that Apollo acquires you can see that the decline in culture and the was employees are treated tends to decline drastically.
