Pros
Personally, I don’t understand all these negative reviews. I’ve been working at Scribd for over a year now and think it’s one of the best places I’ve ever worked. It’s true the company has been through a lot of change, but there’s a ton of great work happening. What I’ve witnessed is that we’re hiring really smart people to join the already impressive group of employees and it’s pushing our product to a new level. Not to mention, the culture at Scribd is really cool and fun. Sure, you have to work hard, and the expectations are high. But, the company is pretty clear about what those expectations are. And there are a ton of perks and benefits to balance it out. I’d say they treat employees better than most companies. So, to anyone reading about Scribd, I’d suggest you take all these former employees’ reviews with the grain of salt they deserve. There are plenty of us that are sticking around because we believe in the company, and it’s for good reason.
Cons
I'm required to type something here so I'll say I'd love more surprise days off.
