Worst company I’ve ever worked at

Pros

There no longer are any pros.

Cons

- WLB has gone down the drain since the layoffs (which were very poorly handled) - Minimal transparency from leadership that often changes their mind - TERRIBLE HR (which is ironic for an HR tech company), in R&D they’re incompetent and have 0 concern for employees, and only look out for managers/leadership - Pay is poor despite many of us constantly flagging for indeed leadership how a lot of our peers are struggling to survive and feed their families on this salary (CS and Benefits team members, in particular, meanwhile HR is dramatically overpaid for the LITTLE that they do). - Tech is severely out dated, in many orgs we are using tech that is over 20 years old - ZERO foresight from leadership to work on innovative tech that would differentiate us in the industry, since leaders are very shortsighted and have been for a long time. - Many people are overworked and burnt out (aside from HR that does little, can’t stress this enough) and the company does little to address this. Instead they took away the only benefit that gave us all some relief. - Impossible promotion process, which is now even more difficult despite the propaganda that it has changed for the better. - QUARTERLY reviews where you have to PROVE that you are doing your job rather than actually being reviewed by your manager. - Colleagues who have been here for way too long are constantly trying to convince you in a rather forward, unrealistic way that indeed is great and create a toxic culture that fails to acknowledge any changes for the better

Pros

The only good things about this place is their snacks. You can't slap a free snack on a job and expect the culture to immediately improve, though.

Cons

Everything else! This place is run like an old-world mob-style gang. Say one things wrong, push back on one thing, share one new idea and you will be forever marked. They will do everything in heir power to get you out because you don't believe in the "Indeed Way." Additionally, the product doesn't work as well as other job boards and I heard one of their top developers share that openly. This is the worst place I've ever worked and dreaded every moment after training.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review about working at Indeed in Scottsdale. We care deeply about all our employees and are disappointed to hear about your experience with us. At Indeed, we champion a culture that values honest and transparent communication, with quarterly feedback, management effectiveness surveys and engagement surveys done bi-annually. To hear that you believe nothing was actioned based on your feedback to HR and your Director, is once again disheartening. We’d love to explore your feedback further so please do reach out to us at inside@indeed.com
