Pros

GoDaddy has a great culture, and takes care of its employees. There are a lot of nice benefits, such as excellent healthcare, stock purchase program, and generous leave. I've been lucky enough to have several opportunities to advance and leadership who was willing to go to bat for me when I demonstrated I was serious about career growth. The work is exciting and there is a lot of opportunity to learn and contribute.

Cons

There is not always a lot of formal training or onboarding, so most learning has to be done on-the-fly. I feel the company is aware of that and the culture is such that no one looks down on people asking questions or collaborating when they don't know something. That said, it might be a bad fit for someone who likes a highly structured and documented work environment.

Pros

Great benefits, cool people (not including leadership)

Cons

- You'll be worked like a slave, told when you can take your breaks and lunches. - Boy's Club. If you're in it, you can get away with lying to customers, breaking company policy, and basically whatever you want. If you're not part of it, watch your back, you'll be hyper-scrutinized for every action you take. - Commissions are capped, so top performers are limited. - This is not a true sales job, you are taking inbound customer service calls and will be expected to do technical support and deal with escalated inbound customers. - Much of the job has been outsourced to a Business Partner Organization (BPO) in the Philippines. Because they aren't true GoDaddy employees, they are allowed to operate like the wild wild west. Lying to customers, selling them duplicate products, deleting things from their accounts and reselling them the same product. Basically a complete legal nightmare... but you aren't allowed to complain about it and you are expected to fix all the problems they create.
