Cons
- Every manager is homegrown from within which leads to a "groupthink" mentality. What worked 4 years ago when they were selling may not be the best strategy today but there is no outside influence to tell them that. - Incredible amount of micro management focused mainly on metrics rather than the content - Indeed preaches its perks and forward thinking workplace yet it is an act of god to get permission to leave half an hour early one day even when hitting your numbers - Awful homegrown CRM that is disorganized/always breaks and is not maintained. This leads to garbage lead generation and inefficient processes. Should've upgraded to salesforce long ago and now they are in too deep - Focus on hiring more and more people rather than looking into how they can make their existing AEs more efficient. Investing in sales software to streamline the outreach would go a long way for existing AEs - Successful AEs take a pay cut to move into an enterprise level role or a management role just so they can escape the inside sales environment. - The system that manages the campaigns is designed in Indeed's favor and will manipulate the campaign in Indeed's favor, diminishing the value the client sees. This is done just so AEs and teams can hit their quotas.
