Checkr reviews

• The workplace culture at Checkr is toxic and heavily political, especially within Operations. If the VP and Senior Director of Ops don’t favor you, you’re likely to lose your job quickly. They only hire their buddies from previous companies and are very clicky. • Checkr promotes a high performance culture but fails to reward employees accordingly. Merit increases are minuscule, often capped at 1.5%. Management is discouraged from giving higher performance ratings to limit salary increases, which fosters dissatisfaction and demotivation among employees. In fact, during the recent layoffs in April, they managed to let go of high performers after shoving it down our throats that high performance was the best way to prove our worth. • There's a lack of transparency in decision-making processes, particularly regarding performance evaluations and career progression.

Leadership at Checkr causes major issues that permeate the company - toxic culture. Daniel, the founder and CEO, has single highhandedly created a culture of anxiety and fear. Daniel regularly belittles and demeans his people in large meetings. Numerous employees expressed anxiety and lack of psychological safety in the company. He's incredibly insecure and egotistic and anything can set him off. You can be a great business leader or a great human being - unfortunately, Daniel is neither. Rest of leaders support this behavior by inaction.
