Groupon reviews

All in all, just a bunch of Neanderthals. This organization is rooted with perception and whats on the surface. If you are not able to be part of a clique, then, you must find a job outside the organization. I am part of the global service department that has outsourced over 60% to vendors who cannot do their jobs, no matter how many times you remind them to correct their mistakes. If you are hip and speak from idiocy then you will survive. Try to find one person who is genuine. You may be able to do so with one hand. The leaders don't work from the office. They fly all over town and sometimes the world. They do not spend 5 min in a team meeting encouraging their staff. But they do well behind closed doors and apparently "working from home". Promotions go to those who are dishonest, unfair and racially bias. The smart workers are those who daly behind and become part of the clique. Join if you must, only to be shot down if you don't impress the leader of this rat race. From a business standpoint, Groupon has not come out with anything innovative in the last few years. The Goods team price products 2 times more than the market and even though internal systems allows for employee feedback, no one really bothers to check and rectify this. everyone's sentiments were hurt when Groupon didn't win the Best place to work for 2018 which triggered a series of internal engagements only to come out as superficial. HR might as well be non existent. Just horrible. No exit interviews done.

A lot has changed over the years. Groupon isn't the "crazy fun" place anymore. They fully rank quantity over quality - jobs are being outsourced to Poland and India. They laid off hundreds of people in the middle of a Thursday afternoon with no warning. It's also near impossible to get promoted there. There is no growth; people are quitting like crazy. It's a sinking ship.
