Pros

There were a lot of good and talented people there, and the acquisition got the company a lot more. HR tried very hard to make things work. There are great benefits too.

Cons

Moz had a long time to figure out what they were doing and why. But they haven’t figured it out and still probably won’t. Toxic managers in charge of pushing their department have no vision and don’t even know what they are doing, let alone how to align their department to the company goals. They are more focused on keeping their job and climbing the ladder than actually doing good work. Worst of all, if you bring this up, it seems to be ignored. Or if you leave the company, your feedback is not valid because they just think you are disgruntled.

Pros

Strong company culture that values innovation, collaborative teams with smart colleagues, access to cutting-edge SEO tools, supportive leadership that encourages learning, and plenty of opportunities to work on impactful projects.

Cons

Processes can feel slow at times for decision-making, workload spikes during product launches, some departments operate in silos despite efforts at alignment, compensation could be more competitive for the industry, and remote work policies were occasionally inconsistent.

Pros

Strong autonomy, interesting projects, good relationships with coworkers, plenty of room to grow internally, learning opportunities, remote work friendly, high pay for my field when I worked there.

Cons

Overwork, very low respect from corporate, low transparency from corporate, repeated layoffs damaging morale, hollowing out of unique benefits made overall package less competitive, Ziff Davis slowly killing a once great company.
