Pros

open PTO, remote work option, in-office perks, good work-life balance

Cons

Terrible management. Most senior leadership is based in the US and have no clue as to how EMEA works. Big majority of the job is just fluff - what matters is what you say you do not if you actually do sth useful. Also it was very shocking to see how employees were treated during the round of layoffs, especially considering that the company is making record profit.

Pros

WLB is on par with the industry.

Cons

1. Compensation is below market. The company will say over and over "we will never pay like these other big tech companies" while failing to realize that they are literally surrounded by every major tech company in Austin. Ya'll can have the B and C players. 2. Leadership lacks product vision. Indeed is like Kodak milking sales of physical film in the 80s except they don't have a digital camera breakthrough product on the back burner. They have nothing.

Thanks for providing us with feedback. We’re disappointed to hear that your experience working #insideindeed fell short. We’d like to take a moment to address your concerns. On compensation, Indeed makes data driven decisions and therefore relies on many sources of information to determine the range of wages of our employees with ongoing updates. For context, ~85% of our ranges have been updated in the last 12 months and all ranges in the last 24 months to reflect market movement. Our main sources of information are salary surveys which provide anonymous market data from companies similar to Indeed and those that we compete with for talent and incumbent information which reflects our internal compensation philosophy, our experience hiring and retaining thousands of employees globally. We also rely on feedback from our global recruiters on salary ranges for hires in the market, employees leaving Indeed for other opportunities and external consultants who assess our data from an independent and unbiased standpoint. In addition, careful attention is given to an employee's position within their respective salary range and performance in the specific role that they hold. Based on these as well as the abovementioned factors, salary determinations are made to ensure we are paying competitively for one’s current role or role at time of promotion.

Pros

Great pay, core value of empathy for employees, open PTO plus the whole company is off one day per month. They call these "You Days". Most positions can be 100% remote and all positions can be partially remote. Indeed is such an amazing platform that it sells itself. It is the best in class. Management is wonderful and understanding. All of these things make the very real cons of Indeed worth putting up with.

Cons

Indeed has grown so fast some of their back end systems are built for a smaller company vs. multi billion dollar enterprise. Billing systems are not built for enterprise clients and it causes a lot of problems. Sales quotas are blatantly unfair. I do not think this is done on purpose, but your team will have people asked to grow 15% each quarter, and others that will forecast growth but still average a negative quota across the whole year (for no reason like losing clients). It is difficult to watch your peers with consistently super low quotas make a ton more money than you on commission. Even if you grow your revenue more, they will make more money and be more likely to be promoted because Indeed values quota attainment percentages over revenue growth.
