Pros

Interesting projects, good work life balance, some opportunity to travel depending on the team, fun perks for young people. Basically, if you are starting your career this is a good place to be. You'll get good experience and a decent company on your resume and then enjoy the fun perks.

Cons

If you are more experienced in your career but not quite at a director level I would strongly consider other options. Senior management lacks clear direction and vision and this is something I have heard across many groups including Marketing, HR, Finance, and Engineering. Overall, Indeed was a company that grew too fast and needed to get people in the door. Now that they are there, there is no system in place to actually achieve anything and no true vision for the future, and Senior Management continue to throw people at the problem instead of taking a step back and fixing the issues properly. Indeed is a "me too" company with no true ingenuity, stealing ideas from other tech and recruiting companies, even though they want to think of themselves as a disruption company.

Pros

I loved the talented people I worked with; I appreciated being appreciated; I loved helping employers hire; and I really thought this would be the company I retired from.

Cons

The company culture changed significantly after it became publicly traded; I didn't particularly care for how they handled layoffs; they didn't always act on the feedback they received; and they were slow to jump on the AI train.
