Simply Hired reviews

Don't be fooled by the glowing reviews. All this company cares about is getting sold. There is no real focus on user experience, technology and data integrity. It just enough to get by in the hopes of pleasing investors. The company likes to boast about its dynamic, team-spirited corporate culture. The sad reality is that the place is dysfunctional and full of politics. There are a number of people that are very hard to deal with. A few people have too much power and they like to let you know about it, either directly or through very long passive aggressive emails. You can’t even question them. It is kind of like, "It is either my way or the highway." In 2015, there was extremely high turnover. It seemed like every other week a key person called it quits. Entire teams suddenly were replaced with makeshift employees. It was insane. Some people even left without having a new job to go to, which says a lot. Even executives are leaving or have left. The few people I know that are still there are trying hard to leave. I don't buy the excuse that a hot market has contributed to turnover. People will stay if they are happy. There are much better options in the area.

- Great ideas are shut down because upper management is so focused on the bottom line (Sales). - Marketing is basically sales part 2. No creativity here. YAWN. - Ignores the core product and continues to just sell it. No one in the company is even proud of it. (really!) - Upper management is terrible. I've never seen a company with such turn-over and a complete disregard for their employees. It's ironic considering that it's a JOB SITE!! We can't even hold down the jobs of our own employees! - CFO is terrible. I felt energy levels dwindle, as soon as she arrived. She's definitely turned this place into her own. Makes me sad to see the CEO do nothing about this or even address this - No employee feedback? Management didn't even acknowledge the fact that there wouldn't be compensation benefits or reviews. Employees were just left with no explanation as to how they were performing or what was to happen next.
