Pros

Flexibility to work from home, great coworkers, autonomy to complete work tasks, and reach sales goals.

Cons

Unorganized. High turnover, people will be let go shortly (30 days) after being hired on if they don't immediately hit quota, and managers and leadership change every few months. The high turnover leads to confusion and inconsistency. They will tell new hires that they are rapidly growing but the truth is they fire and hire instead of investing in their employees. Inconsistency and lack of transparency with compensation and objectives, plans change every few months. Inability to use PTO before hitting monthly quota, making it difficult to plan personal time. - Management and HR will ask employees to write reviews after they receive recognition and share they are trying to increase rating on Glassdoor-

Thank you for sharing your concerns. We genuinely value feedback, both positive and negative, as it helps us to continuously improve and evolve as a company. I'm sorry for any frustration you may have experienced during your time with us. It's never easy to feel uncertain or unsettled in a work environment. As a fast growth company, we hold ourselves and our employees to a high standard of performance, as we believe this is essential for driving success in our competitive industry. We also understand the importance of work-life balance and strive to accommodate our employees' personal needs as much as possible. We will take your feedback into consideration as we continue to refine our policies and procedures. With respect to decisions about turnover and compensation plans, I want to assure you that these decisions are made thoughtfully and with the long-term success of our company and our team in mind. We also invest a lot in employee growth and development to help new team members succeed. Unfortunately, not every new hire is the right fit for the role or company. In these cases, we believe it's best for both parties to part ways early on, rather than prolonging a situation that may not be mutually beneficial. While we do encourage our team members to share their honest feedback on platforms like Glassdoor, it is never our intention to pressure or manipulate anyone into leaving positive reviews. Our focus is on creating a positive and supportive work environment where every employee feels valued and respected. Once again, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We are committed to learning from your feedback and making the necessary improvements to ensure that Birdeye remains a great place to work for all of our employees.
