Business Outlook

Pros

Good medical benefits. Relaxed work hours. Always something new developments. Casual dress code. Good products, but still more room for growth.

Cons

Sick Senior management team. After Salary.com went to public, Senior management does nothing except checking stock price 20 times per day, having meetings all the day to talk about stock price. They did nothing to improve the products. Very poor communication to employees, always cheating. No humanity during layoffs.

Salary.com poised for good things

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Salary.com sits on a wealth for relevant content and human talent that makes them very dangerous under the right leadership structure.

Cons

Salary.com talks too much theory and not enough lets do it. They claim resources are the main reason for challenges and lack for action; however, similar size software companies do a lot more with less employees.
