Pros

The majority of people are nice. Free lunches, snacks and beer. Good health benefits.

Cons

The sexism noted in other reviews is absolutely true and will likely not improve. Racism by managers is tolerated as well along with blatant lying for the purposes of manipulation. There is a "blame the employee" response when inappropriate incidents occur. If you read the "carefully crafted" responses to other bad reviews, there are quite a few "you should have done x" and "our value is this so it wasn't us" built in. I was treated very poorly by several levels of management during my time here and nothing was ever done about it despite documentation and attempts at having conversations. It is also very difficult to advance ones career at Spokeo despite doing measurably good work.

Pros

I worked on the email team a millennia ago, not sure if it still exists today. It was a fun job not answering calls. Very small biannual raises, maybe a quarter or two increase an hour. They reward seniority and tenure. Actually, it's one of the reasons why I left, couldn't stomach seeing some of the leadership day-in-day-out. One of the team leads couldn't contain his energy whenever he was provided attractive female customer service agents to supervise, tried to put on alpha-ish displays and wore small tight shirts. Kind of created a weird aggro morale for his team, even promoted several times up to executive office for some reason. BUT thankfully, my coworkers were awesome!! This was definitely a temporary job for someone in between careers, there were lots of unique personalities, lots of snacks, company events, so I'd say the morale team (yes one of those existed) did a pretty good job.

Cons

Whoops, just read the above
