Pros

Flexible hours, good product, great teammates. People are genuinely passionate about helping people get jobs. Fitness classes offered. Catered food multiple times per week. My Director is on top of everything and I love my Senior Director too!

Cons

New CS leadership is an embarrassment to anyone with any sort of intelligence. Can't send an email without grammar or spelling issues so instead send us degrading, kindergarten level videos with no intelligent information or inspiration. Does not appear to know anything about the issues we are actually facing with clients or our products. The strong team culture that once existed has died. Our bonus pool was reduced for no reason and no other segments of the business had their bonuses reduced. CS is already underpaid and this doesn't help with my team morale.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. It sounds like overall your experience has been a positive one, with your direct management, our benefits and our mission. As you know, we’re growing exponentially on the Client Success team and with growth, there will always be some adjustment between the seasoned employees and the structural changes needed to position us effectively. My desire is that this transition is productive and as smooth as possible for everyone, and I commit to communicating those changes timely. Communication is received differently by different people, so I will continue to use a variety of methods to deliver our messages (all-hands meetings, written communication, and video communication). Although it’s on all of us to uphold our strong culture inside Indeed, I respect and accept the responsibility as the leader to own it. I welcome your direct feedback so that I can address any other concerns you may have.

Pros

- (Most of) the people - The perks (snacks, food, sponsored intramural sports, happy hours, holiday parties, etc.) - The feel of a "fast paced tech environment" - Good Training & Development (T&D) program Overall it was a good work experience learning the recruitment advertising industry. Indeed and competitors have played a major role in shifting the old-school mentality of Human Resources and Corporate Recruiting. It was exciting to be a part of it, and experience the beginning of their now massive corporate growth. Indeed was fast paced and fun, with a young environment and tons of perks. You're able to bond with your co-workers, both inside and outside of work, and forge great relationships.

Cons

- The Management Team - Favoritism on Promotions / Politics - Simplicity of product leads to feeling inept The product is (for the most part) a "one trick pony". Once you have attained a certain Indeed skill-set and working knowledge, it leaves you wondering "What's next?" To add to that, the management team of Past, Present (overheard from co-workers I know are still at Indeed), and (likely) in the Future is very much your typical high school clique. 1:1's were filled with drama and gossip; management making false promises on growth and promotions or career trajectory; or taking ideas and using them to their own benefit. At the time I was there, the company went through a major overhaul, and the entire Small Business (SMB) tier went through a re-brand, which I believe was necessary for the better of the business, but it lead to many peculiar and strange promotions. This led many to believe there was strong favoritism among the masses. That's not even mentioning how some of the management team behaved in social settings. I witnessed management swipe serious employee injuries (influenced by corporate funded Happy Hours) under the rug. I had seen senior leaders engage in altercations with bar patrons at the local bars (which by the way are flooded with Indeed people every night of the week) -- these two occasions among many others.
