Pros

I worked for CareerBuilder for almost 5 years. They gave me my start in the sales world. I am grateful for the people I met and the skills they gave me.

Cons

However, over the last 2.5 years, the company has run into issues because their products DO NOT WORK. Your main job as a sales rep for the organization is to continue to grow your book of business. However, if you are lucky enough to bring in a new customer, your problems really start then. CareerBuilder will promise their technology is industry leading, however, their job postings fail 100% of the time. Their ATS cannot compete with the leaders in the space, and they continue to drop the ball when it comes to innovation. If you are considering a sales career with CareerBuilder, I would highly reconsider.

Pros

Culture was amazing before it was acquired by private equity.

Cons

The culture was great (before private equity), which made career advancement a game of social politics.
