Cons
Listen to the bad reviews; they're a sign that all is not well in this Humble community. When I started with Humble Bundle, the company was close-knit and they proved, often, that they love ALL of their employees. Everyone had bonuses, there were raffle prizes at meetings, and lots of recognition being handed to their employees. This isn't the case anymore. Then came the new CEO; and everything crumbled. The monthly subscription started to change, as did the entire website (sometimes without warning for employees, leaving customer support to deal with the backlash of the angry community). This caused quite an upset for users and employees, alike. When told that Upper Management would "do better" at being transparent, we believed them. Then came the "restructuring" of 2022. Without warning, 10 employees were completely laid off. You cannot blame your current employees for feeling threatened and expressing their concerns about why this happened. In this case, the "vocal minority" deserves the spotlight to share their concerns with the people that made such a heinous decision. - Severance packages are weak. - Upper management loves to brag about charity efforts for clout, but will rarely take employee struggles or complaints seriously. - Despite your given title at the company, it's likely you'll get roped into other tasks and responsibilities without any extra bump in pay. - CS gets no bonus outside of provided benefits; all while being the backbone of the company and supporting its userbase through every company misstep. - There's a "Humble Award" that allows employees to nominate each other for different "values" they represent. This is just a popularity contest. If you're part of CS or Fraud, you'll struggle to get this award unless you're a manager. - Lack of growth opportunities, especially in CS. - Worldwide inflation and hard work aren't factored into raise amounts. Some have seen raises as low as 1.5%. We're told this is the "market value", but you'll be asked to take on tasks outside of your job title to pick up slack elsewhere. - Incentives have been slowly stripped away over the years. There used to be birthday gift cards, yearly workaversary gifts, t-shirts to celebrate milestones, free access to Udemy courses, and a stipend that could be used for upgrading the workspace or paying internet bills. These things have been slowly taken away or there have been empty promises to "improve" these programs. -Upper management is out-of-touch. - Employees constantly have to chase down HR to get gifted subs and other incentives sorted out.
