Top Review Highlights by Sentiment
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great place to work with some of the smartest colleagues who really care about their jobs. Truly an entrepreneurial spirit inside and out. Lots of autonomy for ambitious employees to thrive. Having a flexible remote/hybrid work environment is a huge pro.
Cons
Despite lean team structures, there can be issues with red tape or things internally moving more slowly than needed.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Everyone was incredibly friendly and easy to work with.
Cons
I have no cons to list.
- Former Employee★★★★★
Not as expected. They're for sale for a reason.
Aug 4, 2022 - Anonymous EmployeeRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
If you're looking for your first job or first big corporate experience with a name brand, this will serve you well for a few years before you realize you're better than what they are feeding you.
Cons
• The nepotism is outrageous. • Promotions come with time there, not merit, so prepare yourself for a mediocre manager (at all levels) who is content with not rocking the boat and doing as they're told. • They preach diversity as a goal, but when it's hiring time internally they do not check that box. Ever. • Boring rinse and repeat, low-quality revenue streams. • Management does't understand tech (see management issue above), so prepare to work like it's 1999. • Instead of listening and improving, they demote or just talk poorly behind their backs about everyone from C-Suite to managers who attempt to modernize the brand.
- Current Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★

- Current Employee★★★★★
Assist in the day to day sales process
Jun 7, 2022 - Sales PlannerRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Good pay, culture, work life balance
Cons
Hi how much work you put in is how much you’ll get in return
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Good company to work at
Cons
Growth takes a while to occur
- Former Employee★★★★★
Awesome company, great product leadership
May 14, 2022 - Senior Product ManagerRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
It’s a publisher so you can’t expect the product/tech org to run like a tech company, but it’s a way more effective product/tech org than what exists at many other publishers. Product leadership has done a great job of setting growth paths for PMs, and there are a ton of interesting projects to work on.
Cons
Revenue organization carries an outsized voice in what product/tech can and can’t do… I think this is changing though.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great place to work, learn and grow. Opportunity to work with some of the smartest people in the industry
Cons
I have been working here for a couple of years and I have not experienced any issues

supportive management , no micro management they care about their employees
Cons
