Pros

I am sorry but I have no positive comments for Checkr, except that I had a few nice colleagues.

Cons

Checkr is a company that does not value their employees and I can relate to those who have mentioned in previous reviews that HR is cold and unhelpful. I also find the executives and even down to the administrative team to be an unprofessional, egotistical and cliquish group. I was very sad to see other employees get let go due to not being a fit within weeks or even a few months, this is not right. Hiring and firing decisions are more personal than based on professional performance. Be very cautious because this can happen to anyone without any notice.

Sorry you didn't have a good experience here. I disagree that hiring/firing are personal, but I know that's hard to see when you're on the other side of it. We do believe in a high performance culture here, and we want to move quickly if the fit isn't right. But I know that we do our best to give people a softer landing, and our severance policies are better than most companies in tech. Wish you luck in your next role. - Arthur / Recruiting

Pros

Great insurance. Learning Stipends, etc

Cons

-Senior leadership only cares about what is new and shiny. -They treat AI like a religion. Forcing everyone to use AI for everything as though we don't realize that the end goal is to eliminate our roles - All Hands Meetings every month where Senior Leadership pats themselves on the back while ignoring any existing issues. - Support is treated like a necessary evil instead of a fundamental part of doing business. Would prefer to ship the roles overseas or replace with AI - Extremely high attrition for Senior Leadership.
