      Pros

      The legend about the good culture is true, even though it is now experiencing an existential crisis after massive layoffs in August. The company really does want you to have a happy life in the office and outside of work. So many people are spurred to take interesting vacations because you have to take vacation to get the $3,000 yearly bonus that can only be spent on vacation activities! HR knows that the layoff has had an impact on morale, and they are trying their best to help the company through the shell shock of such a massive wound. I'm really rooting for them to succeed.

      Cons

      - After the layoff, the company scaled back its ambitions and took a more defensive posture that emphasizes maintenance and incremental improvement of the existing flagship product. - After the layoff, the office feels deflated and quiet, way too large for the reduced workforce. - After the layoff, many of the office perks have been cut. - 401k match is not immediate (it has to vest starting after one year) - No annual bonus structure

      Hi -- I appreciate your thoughtful review. We are very proud of the culture we have fostered at Moz and we are working hard to build on the parts that have made Moz a special place. We have come a long way since this summer and we still have work to do. I am pleased that we have been able to continue with almost all of the benefits and perks, including Paid PAID vacation (which you mentioned). We recently asked Mozzers for feedback on how they are feeling about Moz and our future. We received some excellent, actionable feedback and are working hard to re-establish trust and belief across the company. Thanks for rooting for us, it means a lot!

      Pros

      Strong company culture that values innovation, collaborative teams with smart colleagues, access to cutting-edge SEO tools, supportive leadership that encourages learning, and plenty of opportunities to work on impactful projects.

      Cons

      Processes can feel slow at times for decision-making, workload spikes during product launches, some departments operate in silos despite efforts at alignment, compensation could be more competitive for the industry, and remote work policies were occasionally inconsistent.

      Pros

      Strong autonomy, interesting projects, good relationships with coworkers, plenty of room to grow internally, learning opportunities, remote work friendly, high pay for my field when I worked there.

      Cons

      Overwork, very low respect from corporate, low transparency from corporate, repeated layoffs damaging morale, hollowing out of unique benefits made overall package less competitive, Ziff Davis slowly killing a once great company.
