Good Higher Management and Team members

Anonymous employee
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The CEO and the other co-founders have a great vision Lots of events and happening culture , team looks energetic from outside Fast moving Teams , team members are high performers Great Office Locations and Flexibility One of the best products in the market in its category

Cons

Micromanagement by middle level managers . Supervisor can be bossy and try to showcase that they've been there for longer than you. Not focusing on the process efficiency as long as you can pump out more work by working anyhow and checking more boxes. Don't care even if you leave, the middle management is quite causal about people leaving jobs. If you speak up about something and the Team Leader doesn't like it you may get in trouble/lose the job anytime irrespective of the merit of your argument.

Thank you for your feedback and your contribution during your time at JobAdder. I can assure you that middle and senior management care deeply about our people and the recent changes as a result of COVID-19 were extremely difficult but necessary. We wish you all the best for the next step in your career.

Poor place to work

Senior software developer

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Good location. I need to add 5 words so adding in this other sentence otherwise... that's it really, location.

Cons

Distinct difference in treatment of people with different cultural backgrounds. Poor 'HR' team. Poor product management and leadership. Leadership team also has extremely poor communication with development, treating developers like second rate workers, (yet they try to sell themselves as a tech company.) The lack of vision stands out the most.

JobAdder is extremely proud of our culture which includes our inclusiveness - we are naturally extremely diverse and value all of our staff, especially our Engineering team! (Low single digit voluntary turnover speaks for itself.) The recent staff changes as a result of COVID-19 were extremely difficult but necessary - I hope you find a new role you enjoy.

Great company with smart people to work with

Software engineer

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The people you work with are highly professional and fun loving at the same time. I got the chance to work with some of the most amazing people who love their job and are excellent in their field of work.. Work life balance. Very flexible work culture with option to WFH. Senior leadership is quite transparent and BI (CEO) is very approachable and a really cool person. He knows the market in and out and understands product to the core. Did I mention free Beers!!

Cons

The new middle management values processes over people. Developers are expected to log times daily against each task just like you see in a client-billable hours company. This shows the amount of trust middle management have on Devs and it discourages to work/improve on anything which is not handed down to people. I feel that politics has started to creep in the office lately. People who flatter and smooth talk are preferred/promoted while other good people are bypassed or made redundant. Devs are afraid to raise their opinion because of high redundancy in past.
