Pros

-Unlimited Snacks -Great People -Great free lunches on Mondays

Cons

I have never been at a company that has experienced such a sudden shift in employee morale. They obviously thought we were making too much money and significantly increased our quotas to the point where less than 5% of reps are going to hit target. I know so many people that are looking elsewhere. I would not recommend working here. The most frustrating part is all we're told from leadership is to stay positive. How can they expect us to stay positive and care when a large percentage of people aren't even going to get a bonus which is the majority of our compensation? This job was always boring, but we put up with it because of the pay. Now the pay is gone, this is a terrible place to work.

Pros

Indeed truly believes in work / life balance. During your interview, get your manager's take on working from home, as every manager has the autonomy to operate differently. The pay is great and it has all of the benefits of a tech company (ie. tons of free food, big events with open bar and catering, very inclusive culture, flexible schedule, no dress code, couches/ rocking chairs/ standing desk, gyms, work out classes, etc) The health insurane is fantastic. My husband is a veteran and works for DOD and still uses our benefits. They cover things like fertility treatments- 3 rounds of IUI & 2 rounds of IVF They have 6 wks paid paternity leave & 4 months paid maternity leave They have events for the family They give you tooooons of free swag Open PTO Follow #insideindeed for a lot of insider pics of our events

Cons

The managers have complete autonomy- which is great, if you have a good manager. It is important to get to know the manager as much as possible during the interview and find out their style. Most managers are completely lax on work from home/ flexible schedules/ time off, etc. There are some that are a bit more micromanagers. Also, some products are managed extremely different than the bulk of indeed. It's important to talk to those who are in the role and really find out what they enjoy and ask the questions about work from home policies, etc.

No transparency at all and too much harassment

Pros

Great perks. Free lunch & snacks, free beer, free gym, game room, overall a very nice office. Open PTO policy makes it easy to have a good work life balance.

Cons

Some people abuse the open PTO policy. I have seen people taking PTO every month and not getting any work done at all, but that is accepted as it's the employee's freedom to decide when and what to work on. The managers say that it's an open and safe environment, but in reality there is no transparency and no freedom so say what you think. I was told not to point out problems unless I have a solution ready. That is the same as saying "you can't ask questions unless you have the answer." It does not feel like a safe environment when you get criticized for asking questions. The evaluation system is not very fair, as it gets heavily influenced by the opinion of the managers. Even if the whole team gives you positive feedback, if you don't get along with one manager you will end up with a negative evaluation. There is a problem with harassment as well. There have been sexual harassment incidents but the company failed to take any action to prevent this kind of problem from happening again. Overall it is not a safe environment to work in, especially if you are a woman.
