No Longer a "Great Place to Work"

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

- ROWE (before they got rid of it) - Great office and location - Nice perks and benefits (again... before they got rid of a lot of things) - Great coworkers

Cons

Just had a big layoff (58 people) with no warning. They pledge transparency but this really came from out of the blue. Even during the recession of 2008 there wasn't a huge layoff, so they must really be in trouble. They laid off an assortment of people, including long timers loyal to the company, PREGNANT women, and women who were on maternity leave/just back from leave. Really shady. They spend money on perks and superficial things to keep employees happy but currently can't figure out how to actually run a successful company. They change direction every year and instead of innovating try to copy what other companies do. Recently just got rid of a ton of perks that made working here bearable including things that have been around for over a decade. Pretty sure it's bad corporate strategy leading to inability to turn a profit, not the fact that we used to have half days before major holidays. I can see taking away things like TripCash, Bonusly, etc, but the half days have been around FOREVER so I can't see how that really is going to make much difference. Again, blaming the wrong things.

Leadership is taking this company down!!!

Pros

Pros used to be work from home policy, trip cash, great work culture, etc. Nothing left to say now.

Cons

58 employees laid off. Leadership has no vision in guiding this company in the right direction. We've already had 2 failed attempts; Audience targeting and the new E17 site redesign were epic fails. Can we go 3 for 3? Of course!! Rolling out this CPA (performance based) model next year will be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

Talented People, Structure and Direction Could be Improved

Pros

Edmunds certainly hires some of the most talented and driven people available. In 3 years I've yet to meet someone who didn't impress with their work ethic and quality as an employee.

Cons

The products and supporting processes change very quickly and it can be a challenge to keep up. At times you may find yourself feeling disconnected from the ideology behind the choices made despite the company's uncommon commitment to transparency.
