Pros

They'll feed you. Not much else.

Cons

This is true of any employer, but especially Indeed: don't trust HR. They don't have your best interests at heart. Unlimited PTO sounds good, but all it really means is that when you leave, Indeed doesn't have to pay out the PTO hours that they owe you. I know that's just business, but they make it sound like such a gift.

Thank you for leaving us a review about your time at Indeed. We think the free food and snacks we provide our people are vital to their happiness and wellbeing in work. But we agree that it takes more than perks to make a successful career. It takes work and life balance. The open PTO (Paid Time Off) is intended to be used by everyone. We want employees to take off as much time on holiday as they need, as long as they are hitting their targets and have manager approval. It’s a benefit that we offer all of our employees on top of the standard 25 days leave, in countries where there are standard leave regulations, Indeed pays out unused time Our HR teams are there to support our employees and care about what they care about. They partner with our Centers of Excellence to guide and provide the tools they need develop their careers with us. We’d love to discuss your feedback further on this point so please contact us at inside@indeed.com

Pros

Many. Covered by other reviewers so I'm not repeating them here.

Cons

Do not join Indeed if you're a recent grad on OPT or on H1B. Their immigration policy sounds nice but is in fact a nightmare. I've never seen anyone got their GC here during their stay this company.

Pros

This place is a dream for anyone coming straight from college looking for a decent entry level wage, good benefits and lots of office hook ups and drama.

Cons

If you are even a mid level professional, this won't be the place for you. In my year plus there, there was an alarming lack of transparency throughout the organization. Up front, I was told that the salary I took which was a step back, would be guaranteed with a 20% bonus. This wasn't the case so it ended up being just a true step backwards financially for me. I also was never told I had to travel and was asked to travel often. The best way to describe the culture is being the new kid walking into the cafeteria senior year. It is very clicky and gossipy, and no matter how hard you work, are transparent on your end and ask the same, it will never be returned. You will instead be rewarded for brown nosing, etc...
