Pros

Nothing besides free snacks and drinks.

Cons

1) Management does not give a damn about you. You either meet the call quotas or get yelled/threatened at like your garbage. All you are is a paid employee that they use as a human cold-caller to advertise their job search functions. 2) All you do all day is annoy businesses on the phone. Most of the time your generating your own leads as well because there is basically no leads given out to the Account Executives, so its impossible to meet the quota of 60 calls a day. 3) Just don't work here. Trust me. You didn't get a Bachelor's to make pointless calls all day and be treated like garbage. Don't trust the positive reviews for Account Executives. I personally know that they are mostly fabricated to bring in a steady flow of recent graduates to replace the ones that turnover almost constantly.

Pros

Beautiful office space with amenities.

Cons

Indeed is concerned mainly with entertaining the younger employees through constant happy hours and childish activities. If you’re older than 27, don’t live in the city it have a family - you miss out on free perks. There has been numerous requests to provide a consistent daycare system for children but all are ignored. We spend an obscene amount of money on office furniture but get little pay and no childcare in return. Indeed does offer emergency daycare with another company but 10 days a year for a fixed price isn’t a solution.

Thanks for leaving us a review about your experience working at Indeed. As we grow as a business we are always looking for ways to improve our benefits offering to our employees. Currently we offer a wide range of benefits and perks to suit all of our employees, regardless of age, background or family situation. For those with children, they include childcare vouchers, flexible working, open PTO, family days, baby boxes for newborns and more. We’ll stay on the lookout, and listening to valuable feedback like yours. Please do reach out to your HR business partner if you have any more suggestions.

Disappointing

Pros

Free breakfast and lunch, open PTO, casual dress

Cons

This job started out really exciting but now it's obvious there is nothing left for me here. It's mostly busy work that is not challenging or inspiring so you get burned out quickly. A lot of people have great ideas to increase efficiency but they fall on deaf ears, so it seems like there is no end to the inefficiency. The rest of the week is just meetings that don't result in much of anything and I honestly don't see the point. At best, your Team Lead will put you on a project that you spend months on that ends up going nowhere. The pay is already on the low end for the Austin market and you can only get a very small raise once a year. The only growth opportunity is to become a Team Lead so if you don't want to manage people this is basically a dead end job.
