Pros

Given you're on the right team, LiveRamp can be a really great place to work: -The people working here are incredibly smart and kind and it is a great place to learn and grow -LiveRamp has a promising future and the Lteam (C-Level) are very competent -*Most* teams at LiveRamp are great; good work/life balance, high pay, and interesting work -The company genuinely cares about Diversity & Belonging and has been investing a lot of money and time in its efforts around that -Switching to remote work after COVID hit was really seamless and there were a lot of systems in place that made the change to remote work very easy. -The offices are great and there are a lot of interesting events going on when the offices are open

Cons

Most of my cons are specific to the finance team that I was on: -There were expectations that we could both simplify our work and continually take on more and more. The CEO would always say "GOHIO" (Get Our House In Order), but due to the expectations that were never possible, and there was never time to fix broken systems since expanding the scope of our work was preferred -Senior FinOps management is incredibly disconnected from the work that individual contributors are doing, and it very clearly shows. The management doesn't do a good job understanding and recognizing how hard some people on their team are working, and this has caused a lot of people to leave and MANY people to really think hard about leaving soon -There is pay inequality on the team and pay within FinOps below management levels was not competitive -Work/Life balance was constantly brought up and while working from home it only got worse and worse. Management acknowledged it but never made a real attempt to improve it. The best we got was an email with an attached PowerPoint explaining "best practices" for working remotely, which didn't address any of the root causes of people's frustration. Overall, its a genuinely great company, but the FinOps team has leadership that is either disconnected from the people spending 10+ hours / day working or they just don't mind people being frustrated since LiveRamp doesn't have trouble sourcing candidates. People are going to continue to be frustrated and many more are considering leaving unless this changes.

LiveRamp Alum - Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Your call to action on work-life balance continues to be a top focus of ours - including increasing staffing and better prioritization. I’m encouraged by the progress we have made and we are certainly not at the end of our journey towards getting this right. On the topic of compensation: Equitable pay and pay-for-performance are both core tenants of LiveRamp’s compensation philosophy, and we regularly look at pay equity across our organization and make adjustments where needed. At the moment we are fortunate to be in the middle of our year end compensation cycle which includes rewards for our team’s incredible performance during a very challenging year. I appreciate you sharing your experience - it helps ensure that we remain focused on the right things. - Chris Garber, SVP - FinOps
