Jobing.com Reviews

Pros

Great culture, great location, honestly some of the best people in the world to work with, people I ultimately ended up calling my close friends. Free iphone for each employee, also all sales people receive a mac book air for work. Overall a good place to work at

Cons

Must be prepared for lots of frequent changes to the overall business model, not always the right ones. Sometimes communication from upper management doesn't trickle down to local market in a very efficient manner.

Advice to Senior Management

Advice to Senior Management

better structure

Pros

Some of the best people that I have ever known worked for jobing. Jobing prides it self on a great relationship between it's employees and they have a great benefits package, including paying for gas and your car payment if you get your car wrapped with the jobing logo. People there were always positive and team work was the way to go. Management was great as well and very helpful and respectful.

Cons

Sometimes there would be changes to your job description in an effort to try to get more money for the the company from a client. i.e. never having to upsale to "overnight" having to become a sales person when you signed on to be an editor or videographer. For me it was not something that I was interested in having been down that "sales" road before. However it is still one of the best companies that I have ever worked for.

Advice to Senior Management

None really

Pros

at one time invested in professional development of their employees, trend setting forward thinking company, exposure to a variety of job duties, free soft drinks and coffee, young and vibrant work environment, with a dot-com corporate culture.

Cons

start-up company that is going downhill fast, unattainable goals, low salaries, ambiguous about vacation and sick-leave benefits. Unprofessional HR practices.

Advice to Senior Management

Clean house of your smarmy employees including those in upper management.

Pros

A good second job or job for a student. You can pick your own schedule month to month.

Cons

some months there are not enough events to work

Advice to Senior Management

Good leadership.

Pros

Unique benefit package including car wrap program and educational assistance whether for associates, bachelors, masters, or phd. oh yeah, free coffee and soda too.

Cons

Unattainable goals, low pay, ambiguous

Advice to Senior Management

Time to rebuild and reunite

Pros

Great mission, great training (at one time), upbeat environment, unique product, expanding company (at one time), hardworking and passionate people (on the front lines).

Cons

Brainwashing by executive team, no real, attainable growth path, horrible pay, no vacation time, sick time, or 401(k), guilt and fear imposed by management, unattainable goals (which only went up if you did, by some act of God, actually meet your goal one month).

Advice to Senior Management

Hire true professionals to manage the company instead of "yes" men. Reverse the recent shifting of your strategy to take advantage of the jobseeker during this economy.

Pros

excellent perceived culture with enthusiastic employees about product and service in helping local community. initial training and development is excellent with leadership training for all new employees. high energy culture allows people to be themselves and succeed.

Cons

if you are not part of inner circle of management you are treated as an outsider. initially you are told this is a company of high integrity and relationship based sales. ultimately it turns into a culture sales sales sales, get the clients, & screw integrity. the competitive edge present vs competitors was their ability to get close to clients through being local. that is now being traded in for sales sales sales and screw relationships; it's how can you make the sale.

Advice to Senior Management

be what you say you are: transparent. the transparency has gone away in favor of everything being behind closed doors. gone are the quarterly roadshows. gone are the open managers who are their to train, develop and mentor staff. gone is the entire culture employees and clients are told is there.
