Pros

Some of the positive reviews here reflect what Taboola used to be—a great place to work with strong leadership and a clear vision. But ever since the stock started tanking, the pressure has led to short-sighted decisions, gutting the “old guard” who built the company and replacing them with so-called “talent” from big-name companies. Here’s the problem: managing a team at LinkedIn doesn’t prepare you to run an organization or build a culture. Instead of leaders who understand the business, Taboola is now stacked with people more concerned with optics than execution. The result? Constant reorgs, shifting goalposts, and leadership that makes decisions without considering their impact on the people actually driving revenue. Sales management is reactive, not strategic, and top performers are often sidelined. There’s little transparency, inconsistent communication, and a revolving door of talent looking for better opportunities. There are still great people at Taboola—just don’t expect upper management to be among

Cons

It’s is all a con

Thanks for taking time to share a review. We appreciate you sharing your experience and raising important points about leadership, strategy, and communication, and we're sorry to hear that your Taboola experience has not been as positive as we'd like it to be. It's very important that the work experience is a happy and healthy one for all Taboolars, and clearly that isn’t your current experience. We’d like to make things better. If you haven't already, we encourage you to please reach out to your manager or HRBP so that they can take steps to make improvements.

Pros

1. Generous benefits, pay is not too bad for someone new to the industry. 2. beautiful working space full of food, snacks, drinks, etc 3. Basically, the corporate want to make sure you are comfortable at work and have all the required gadgets 4. CEO is ambitious, highly involved, and actively seeking out new directions for the company instead of sitting on the native market they already dominated

Cons

1. Your personal experiences are highly related to the team you are on. 2. Some managers, who I am not sure if this is a culture or langauge issues, often sound condescending. Whenever you ask questions, instead of providing instruction, they will use rhetorical questions and leave you even more confused. Some like to blow things out of proportion when they disagree with your work. 3. Sending work messages 24/7 for nonurgent issues every day, even if you say 'not expecting you to reply,' is still pressure, especially coming from your direct manager. 4. The company pays hella amount of attention to their online reviews. They have people rolling out a food cart to encourage people leave comments/reviews online. I see this as both good and bad. Good because the employer does care about employee feedback, at least seemingly. Bad because you only need to PR this hard when things are not doing good. 5. Mandatory days at the office are Mon, Tues, and Thursday instead of letting you choose the days. Make you feel like a kindergarten kid when you have such limited freedom for your own schedule. 6. Toxic behaviors are tolerated
