Pros

Huge opportunity to help turn things around

Cons

Acquisitions consistently mishandled. Alignment issues between Product, Marketing, & Sales. Complete lack of accountability for executives. Corporate schmoozefest with little diversity. Constantly changing strategy. Executive team isn’t interested in you, only wants to extract as much value as possible. Failure happens incredibly slowly. Just looking for an exit. Politics, politics, politics! Recent office move handled poorly with tons of empty space. Too many important functions being run by consultants. Values are eventually used against you.

Pros

Great coworkers, decent work life balance

Cons

All of the amazing employee benefits that FullContact was once known for were completely stripped away by Ziff Davis after they acquired the company in 2024. No benefits, bonuses, merit increases, etc. ziff davis leadership treats us like disposable garbage
