Pros
Onboarding - very involved onboarding process! Before I joined, I was invited to an office outing where I was able to get to know everyone before starting. Everyone was very welcoming. This continued into my first few weeks on the job. The team has been very hands on in my onboarding/training and everyone in the office is warm, inviting and open to questions.
Environment - the environment is very positive. Again, everyone is very open to questions and more than happy to help. Everyone is very excited about the work they are doing and energized coming into the work day. There are a few challenges in terms of system and process, but there is a great mindset when it comes to tackling these challenges as a team.
Benefits - the benefits are very competitive for the midwest employees since this company is based in CA. Benefits are extremely well priced with good coverage and you can be reimbursed monthly for a gym membership.Cons
Benefits - while most of the benefits are competitive, there is no 401k match currently. This isn't a huge deal breaker since I haven't had a match above 6%, but still something to consider.

Pros
The employees at Jobvite work as a team. They are forever trying to help and encourage one another. It’s like working with family.
Cons
Remote work is great, but has its challenges. You feel less of a culture than you would at headquarters.
Benefits arent the best (lack of 401k match)Advice to Management
Keep on keepin on! I’ve not been happier with a company.

Pros
Smaller employee size so there is a sense of community. I'm not in San Mateo, but I still feel connected and comfortable reaching out to anyone.
Very helpful, friendly team.
Flexible work environment.
Very open to ideas and collaboration.
Always looking for internal improvements as well as system improvements so that employees and customers have a great experience.
Ability to move positions within the company.
I actually enjoy my job and my customers.Cons
Smaller companies are a pro and a con. They are flexible and can implement changes and improvements quickly. That also means that as an employee you need to be able to work in an environment where you can pick up new things very quickly and be able to work hard to make these innovations happen. There's going to be less hand holding so you need to be able to hit the ground running, but it opens you up to grow more and open opportunities.

Pros
The people. I cannot think of a company where I've worked with such a unique group of caring people. One of Jobvite's values was "Don't hire a**holes". Of course, one or two always sneaks through, but they don't last long for the most part. Jobvite has a great group of people that really want the company and the employees to succeed. There's a lot of passionate, hardworking people there.
Jobvite isn't for everybody. It's a small scrappy company, and you have to be creative with limited resources. That said, nobody will stop you from coming up with solutions. If they try, just keep pushing forward and have a good attitude. Nobody will fault you for being tenacious at Jobvite. If you're coming from a large company get used to rolling up your sleeves on doing some small things as well as leading large initiatives yourself. That's the fun part though, right? Get creative!Cons
Let's get rid of Cons, and just say "could be improved":
-Starting pay could be better, but Jobvite does reward for performance. If you think you're amazing and worth more, prove it!
-Some of the people that have been there a while are coasting and need to get back their head back into the game.Advice to Management
Lead, Follow, or Get out of the way!

Pros
The people here are top notch, respectable and respectful, smart and ambitious. You can tell that work / life balance is important to management. The overall experience has been a very positive one.
Cons
There could be more transparency on what the corporate and team revenue goals are and more of an incentive to hit team goals including accelerators.
Advice to Management
Since the sales team is remote for the most part, it would make sense to put more of an emphasis on achieving team goals in addition to individual goals.

"Good Company, Strong Product, Needs Better Direction"
StarStarStarStarStarDoesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Jobvite full-time
Pros
Rapidly growing company out to make a mark in the ATS space. Good product and versatile amongst the competition
Cons
Lack of cultivating a strong and viable culture with the sales teams. Management just manages to the number without much thought given to the people.
Advice to Management
Take a look at the talent you have and cultivate it. There is no magic wand to wave, it takes day to day interactions and sometimes the employees need a pat on the back and not just the stick.

Pros
Great people, nice kitchen fully stocked.
Cons
Location is tough commute unless you live somewhat local. Benefits are not great. Working remotely not an option. Zero career growth possibilities unless you're a guy. Company is way behind others in this area for employee benefits and culture. NOT a place for women looking for career growth
Advice to Management
Wake up - the high employee turnover is going to get worse unless you make an effor to offer comparable benefits. Hire or promote some WOMEN - Jobvite is a textbook example of sexism in Silicon Valley - all men in Exec Management team and seems like only guys get promoted or hired in leadership positions- why not try to promote Jobvite as being supportive of women? You might stop having so many people leave. The number of people who have left so far is a source of worry for those who remain
