- The atmosphere is toxic, many employees are in positions they aren't qualified for; e.g. programmers that are in management positions. - Management is ill-equipped to manage their employees since the acquisitions. The company grew too large. They lack the skills to communicate effectively. - Surprise lay-offs. When the numbers don't add up, people get canned. No change in upper management or strategies. The rank and file get punished. - Answers.com reputation as clickbait hurts the SaaS businesses they acquired. Upper management refuses to add value to Answers.com to repair their reputation. Focuses on new clickbait websites, but it's more of the same. Too reliant on Google Ads / Facebook for revenue. - Company pivots constantly. Be expected to work late hours / travel for little recognition. - No diversity.

Poorly managed at all levels. The subsidiary companies gobbled up by the parent corporation are seeing their thriving companies slowly be strangled to death. Morale is at an all-time low after another round of massive layoffs. In this day and age, you wouldn't think a pronounced glass ceiling could thrive--but at Answers that is absolutely the case. Women and minorities are not only not promoted into upper management, those that WERE in upper management prior to acquisition lose their jobs. It is an old boys network to be sure--with one weird exception: most of the "boys" are relatively young and you would think/hope they would not run a company this way.
