Pros

Great people, great pay, very social environment. Laid back dress code. Tons of happy hours. Free hot breakfast every single day and catered free lunch once a week. Also new policy of Open PTO. Potential to make a lot of money.

Cons

Focus on unimportant metrics that work against actual productivity, like number of calls. The CRM isn't the strongest it could be. There is increasing competition over increasingly limited opportunity and there is disincentive from closing certain deals if they're not gamed in your favor.

Pros

There is potential to make a lot of money at Indeed. If you play the game and game the system then there is serious income potential. Bonuses are very generous The perks are great. Between benefits and the company outings/happy hours, it's a great environment. Indeed is growing quickly and is very profitable.

Cons

- Every manager is homegrown from within which leads to a "groupthink" mentality. What worked 4 years ago when they were selling may not be the best strategy today but there is no outside influence to tell them that. - Incredible amount of micro management focused mainly on metrics rather than the content - Indeed preaches its perks and forward thinking workplace yet it is an act of god to get permission to leave half an hour early one day even when hitting your numbers - Awful homegrown CRM that is disorganized/always breaks and is not maintained. This leads to garbage lead generation and inefficient processes. Should've upgraded to salesforce long ago and now they are in too deep - Focus on hiring more and more people rather than looking into how they can make their existing AEs more efficient. Investing in sales software to streamline the outreach would go a long way for existing AEs - Successful AEs take a pay cut to move into an enterprise level role or a management role just so they can escape the inside sales environment. - The system that manages the campaigns is designed in Indeed's favor and will manipulate the campaign in Indeed's favor, diminishing the value the client sees. This is done just so AEs and teams can hit their quotas.
