Pros

Flexible Time Off Working Remote

Cons

Full Annual Bonus is NEVER paid out Rare opportunities for growth and promotion Merit Increases are slim to nothing due to the state of the business Seems like most new hires are being brought in from Manilla to cut down on costs. Cielo pays their employees under the minimum based on the market and other competitors

Hi, this is Molly Thiel, Chief Operating Officer. Thank you for sharing your candid feedback. While I appreciate what you have shared, I'd like to address a few of your comments. It is important to us that our people are recognized for their hard work through our reward recognition program, annual awards, and teams celebrating one another for exemplifying our values. It is true that full bonuses are not always guaranteed, like many of our competitors, but I'd be happy to discuss the specifics of the bonus plan in more detail with you. We also make efforts to provide growth opportunities through internal mobility and career pathing discussions with managers. Our teams are always evaluating how we can enhance professional development programs and promotion avenues. If you want to discuss this or any of your other comments further, you can reach me at Molly.Thiel@cielotalent.com. My door is always open. Thank you.

Pros

Unlimited PTO Remote work Work/Life balance

Cons

Layoffs every year and sometimes mutiple times a year (sometimes announced and sometimes quietly but teams talk). Have seen way too many good colleagues get let go to get back filled in a low cost geo that turn out to not work out. Every single day I dread getting a meeting invite from my manager or P&C that I'm being let go. Talking with others on my team and on other client teams, we all feel that way. No bonuses anymore. I dont think I've ever had more than 50% of my bonus in all my time here. Merit raises are low 1-3%.

Hi, this is Cherice Schmidt – EVP, Client Services. Thank you for your candid feedback and for your five years of dedication to Cielo. I appreciate you highlighting the positive aspects of our workplace flexibility, including unlimited PTO and remote work options. However, I am deeply concerned about the anxiety and uncertainty you're experiencing regarding job security and compensation. I want to acknowledge the impact that organizational changes have had on you and your colleagues. While we must make difficult decisions to remain competitive in our evolving market, we understand these changes affect real people and their families. Your feedback about compensation, particularly regarding bonuses and merit increases, is heard and valued. We regularly review our total rewards structure to ensure competitiveness, and your specific concerns about healthcare costs and merit increases will be carefully considered in our ongoing evaluations. The perception that there's inequity between leadership and staff compensation is concerning, and I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We strive for transparency in our decision-making processes, and your feedback helps us identify areas where we need to improve both our communication and our practices. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss your specific situation and concerns in more detail. Please reach out to me directly at Cherice.Schmidt@cielotalent.com.
