Treated Well but Somewhat Aimless

Business Outlook

Pros

- Good compensation and work life balance - Transparent pay and promotions - Super friendly people

Cons

- Morale is super low after the layoffs and some people are definitely starting to drag - Product direction is super aimless. Projects will be prioritized, staffed, and run super aggressively for 6 months to a year only to fizzle out before delivering value and getting deprioritized.

Pros

Things were good until last week. Every quarterly updates, we were told how Indeed is doing great and earning a lot of money. Until last week, were Indeed (and Glassdoor) announced that they fire 15% of their workforce.

Cons

After telling us that it would be the last option if things go south. This massive layoff was obviously planned for weeks or months, but we were lied to when we were asking about potential layoff. Higher management should not be trusted! They took actions that benefit them, by punishing the real workforce, the people that really keep the company running. Some of the higher management even decided to leave the ship just before the announcement!

Business Outlook

Pros

The people you meet here all work their hardest. No one needs to pick up slack from another because everyone is doing the work they need to do.

Cons

Management seems very disconnected from the workforce. Major changes to pricing an business structure left the sales teams feeling like the company was taking money directly from our pockets. I foresee tough times ahead for the moral of every indeedian when the world's #1 job site has to let 2200 people go. On that same note I don't understand why they have job postings live right now, they just fired 15% of their workforce.
