Pros

-Great people -Free food -Cool office environment -Middle management is great, upper management, not so much.

Cons

-Cutthroat, thin-ice type environment. High pressure to hit numbers goals. -Sometimes, they are unrealistic or out of your power, but still, you will be punished for not hitting. -Management seems to only care about the numbers and metrics you are producing, not how you actually feel.

Thanks for leaving a review of your work experience at Indeed. We take pride in a great work environment, from the people that make up Indeed to the amenities offered, such as catered meals, snacks/beverages and the activity rooms that make up each Indeed office. As a data-driven organization, we adjust KPIs and metrics as needed to reflect the market. This constantly changing environment may not be suited for everyone, but many thrive in the challenge that is presented to them. That said, we also evaluate feedback both internally through engagement surveys and from reviews such as this to provide to management, as the only we can improve as an organization is through feedback.

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.
