Pros
Glassdoor is a great forum for honesty, much like Yelp!. When you read a slew of negative reviews then all of a sudden there are 10 reviews in a span of 1 day all within the Sales Department, it stinks of management. These 5 star reviews are claiming to "Shame negative reviews" yet that is exactly what Glassdoor promotes -- honesty. How does the old saying go? "Perception is reality." We know these reviews today were requested by management, and that is the true shame. Read them carefully. They all say the exact same thing, almost down to the t. Even their Review Titles are the same generic "BEST COMPANY EVEERRRRRRR!" For what it is worth, ZipRecruiter, as a company, is great. There are great people, and if you are to pursue a career at Zip, anywhere but the sales team makes sense. 90% of the reps get the low level leads, the other 10% get spread through Corporate and Mid-Market.
Cons
Sales Management have lost touch with reality. Perks that are now present at most companies are being shown as unique here. Free food, happy hours, unlimited PTO, etc. are all par for the course. Stop making it seem like you are doing us a favor by letting us work there, and that you love that we are there. Change is good, and expected. However, the ego of the managers doesn't matter. What matters is the employees. At this stage of the game there are so few sales people that you have 3 managers babysitting 18 people, if that. That is why you'll have hard times recruiting top talent. Not many people will be comfortable living on $30,000 base with an OTE of $50,000. Especially not in SaMo. From the competing companies in Tempe / greater Phoenix area, they are offering much more, so do yourself a favor if you are considering ZipRecruiter. Think twice, and get what you are worth. which is the real market standard. In 2015 they got rid of bonuses for hitting goal. 2016's "gotcha" has yet to be revealed. Oh, and "try harder and dial more" isn't a refined sales methodology.
