Pros

Great building amenities, great PTO

Cons

Buyers beware, what Indeed advertises vs what it's really like. There is a serious lack of diversity in management. Poor management: - They're quick to point out your flaws publicly and make themselves look good - They're not interested in supporting you grow, they'll take your ideas for themselves - When it comes to reviews they will tell you reasons why you don't get promoted that was not previously communicated - Favouritism - those that do get promoted are not TBAs who pose a threat to the delicate egos of the leads - Disorganized - management with no experience or training - Poor communication

Hi there. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review about working at Indeed. Inclusion is an extremely important issue for Indeed’s leadership team and has been for some time. As our company grows, diversity in our leadership is also growing. We’ve made a number of female and BAME hires at senior level recently and it is a continued focus for CEO, Chris Hyams. We do not promote favoritism within our business when it comes to promotions and use robust assessment and selection methods when putting internal and external candidates through the interview process for open roles. It is worrying to hear your feedback and we’d love to speak to you further on it. Please reach out to us on inside@indeed.com

Pros

I loved the talented people I worked with; I appreciated being appreciated; I loved helping employers hire; and I really thought this would be the company I retired from.

Cons

The company culture changed significantly after it became publicly traded; I didn't particularly care for how they handled layoffs; they didn't always act on the feedback they received; and they were slow to jump on the AI train.
