Pros

FullContact (now a Ziff Davis Company) is a close-knit company where people genuinely care about each other’s success. There’s a strong sense of teamwork, and you’re empowered to work autonomously — managing your own book of business and driving results in a way that works best for you. Leadership fosters a collaborative environment, and colleagues are always willing to help.

Cons

Since being acquired by Ziff Davis, many of the promises tied to growth, support, and financial targets haven’t materialized. Raises and merit increases are minimal (less than 1% this year), falling far below even standard cost-of-living adjustments. There’s little clarity around career paths or advancement opportunities. It often feels like Ziff Davis is focused more on acquiring companies for optics than investing meaningfully in their long-term success. Meanwhile, teams are held to increasingly aggressive revenue targets without the necessary support — especially in today’s economy.
