Netflix Employee Review

Former Employee – worked at Netflix

Pros – Free account! Streaming and eight DVDs at a time.

Cons – They hired on hundreds as temps and told all of us we would be "converted" and receiving health benefits within three months, or be fired for poor performance. Well, that never happened. We were all strung along, some of us were fired, but by the time six months came along only 30 of the remaining 250 temp employees were given health insurance. they kept telling us, "maybe next month." When I finally quit and told them why, I was told that they were using benefits as a performance motivator, and they extended the conversion time frame to a year. I told them that health insurance is something that GOOD employers give their employers, not a performance motivator, and that they needed to find a better way to motivate their employees. Disgusting.

Advice to Senior Management – Give your employees some respect. Give them health insurance, and offer the cash bonus as a quarterly incentive if they triple crown.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
