Pros

pay is decent(never heard a single word about any "bonus") so beware of their quarterly bonuses, if you are good at kissing the ring then this is the job for you, they just had to rebrand themselves because they realize their competitors are starting to lap them I stopped counting how many times people would ask me "what is careerbuilder" when I told them who I work for so obviously job seekers aren't utilizing careerbuilder as much as they are using the more modern sites that are run with leaders that lead instead of act as glorified hall monitors

Cons

careerbuilder does not care one bit about results or production, they simply want people who are good at bowing down and kissing the ring

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.
