Pros

There are many great people that join because they believe in the mission that the product sets to deliver (a great company culture, dei transparency, etc)... but keep reading

Cons

Top down trickles down horrible behaviors. They would rather hire someone based on industry experience even if they treat others very very poorly.  Positive reviews are probably from white cis gender men (or fake, too new to see the reality, etc). Most leaders fit that criteria (white male) and those are the most valued and the most heard. This is clear over and over again. They want everything to be cohesive globally but it actually slows down other regions and doesn’t always make sense for that region which hinders success.  Very little empathy from upper Mgmt. It’s all about numbers and you better deliver fast before you are even fully ramped and fit the perfect mold of the type of person they want. If not, good luck. Diversity of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, thought, etc is NOT embraced. You might get hired but you will not thrive. You will not be listened to. There is no growth path for you. They are not willing to look internally and make change. The only thing you can do is leave.  This is a problem and a PATTERN. How many times does this have to happen to stop blaming your employees for YOUR actions/attitudes that are the actual root cause.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are sad to hear this was your experience at HiBob, and we appreciate the constructive feedback you shared in your submission. In reading your review, we hear two priority areas based on your time at HiBob – first being to continue to magnify the voices of our diverse employees, and the second being to ensure cohesion across our global workforce does not get in the way of moving quickly as individual offices in different countries. I assure you that both of these are of the utmost importance to HiBob and we continue to make strides each and every day. We now have over 750 Bobbers representing a vast array of nationalities and backgrounds. We recognise the ED&I is an ongoing journey and we are proactively taking steps to ensure that all bobbers are recognised and represented, regardless of their background. This year we have rolled out our first ERG for the LGBTQIA+ community, and we are in the process of building other ERG’s for other groups too.

Pros

the people on my immediate team. smart, talented, killer sales people all around.

Cons

The entire US venture has been one giant question mark. Leadership in Tel Aviv is completely disconnected from the US employees and never fully collaborated or provided the resources to be successful. Every questionnaire or sales ask was always handled with complete mediocrity from the leadership team and was frankly too embarrassing to continue trying to make this product viable. Additionally every hire on the US sales team was bait and switched and now Bob is facing rapid attrition, the very issue they claim to solve for other fast growing companies. Overall the least qualified company to be solving HR challenges, given their struggles with not only the US venture, but also the UK venture (also faced rapid attrition).

Thank you for your review. There are a number of points that you raise in your review that we would love to have the opportunity to discuss further with you. It is true that we have transformed and grown a lot as a business over the past 2 years, as we raise the bar and grow in new markets and build the best HR platform around. This growth has meant that the AE role has changed in that time as well as macro and micro economic factors.
