Keywee Reviews

Pros

-The product is very impressive. Within months I am working with top publishers. -Office culture is great. We often lunch together, and everyone is super helpful. -Management is interested in our growth both as employees and as humans. They really take the time to explain how things work, rather than only teaching us what to do.

Cons

-This is not a job where you can succeed through mundane repetitive tasks. Keywee balances your daily tasks with four months of learning about the industry and our product, which is great for those looking to grow their careers (but not necessarily for those only looking for a paycheck).

Pros

Basically none They let me go to the gym during lunch

Cons

Virtually everything - Mismanaged by delusional leadership - Both CEO and COO are at best terrible people and a worst committing fraud - Heard stories of the CEO A/B testing the snacks… The Snacks (and not to see which were good, to see if employees deserved them) - CEO is incapable of running sales driven organization, watched entire sales team quit or encourage themselves be fired, unbeknownst to leadership - Overheard leadership catch wind of employee who wanted to quit and fired him instead, as a sign of "Power" - CCO believes he's smarter than everyone else in the building, has no idea that all are aware of his fake smiles and obvious manipulation - apparently University of Arizona is a good school now - Deep seeded and obvious Israeli favoritism - Mind blowingly difficult to work with Israeli workers in office as they are on different time frame and have conflicting goals with US workers - Business model is inherently flawed and company is doomed to fail - Newly released product was in production for 2-years and provides no value Warning: They do not pay or intend to pay salaries that are signed on day 1. Will change your entire pay structure at will. Watched this happen to my colleagues on several occasions. Have heard rumors of multiple lawsuits around the industry. This is where careers go to die

Pros

Keywee offers a great product that delivers serious results, very close relationship with managers and peers within the department, and a fantastic opportunity to learn more than most CSMs elsewhere in a very short period of time. There's an exposure to digital marketing for the CSMs that leads to an almost unparalleled understanding of the ins and outs of Facebook's marketing platform - this sounds specific, but it's VERY valuable. It's a part of one of their mottos, but to reiterate, this is a position that allows you to grow within your team and enter positions you may never have thought you'd be interested in. The catch here is that you must strongly demonstrate that interest.

Cons

The standard operating procedures of tasks for the CSM can vary widely between manager. This means that you might not know that you've done something wrong until it is way too late. This lends itself to a more general trend of winging it for different tasks, and it can be difficult to get a consistent answer to various questions.

Pros

A proven product that works exceptionally well. You get to work closely with several departments and also act as your own business person within the org.

Cons

We'll need a bigger office soon.

Pros

- Learning the business from top to bottom - Working with amazing customers - top-tier publishers and brands - Working with super interesting technology - Great team to work with - Potential to grow and gain responsibility fast

Cons

- Hard work - rewarding but only for those who are willing to put in the effort

Pros

Technology is innovative and gives strong results that keep clients coming back.

Cons

It’s clear that the positive reviews were made or encouraged by upward management (even the language sounds like the CEO). Low compensation compared to other companies. They do not invest time or effort into employee satisfaction. Very “burn and churn” environment. Not a single person I know received their full bonus because the goals set up are unrealistic based on accounts assigned and managed. Work - life balance is non-existent. It’s all about putting in long hours, and you feel the tension in the room when you leave any time before 7 pm (after a strict and required 8:30 am, latest, start) — people in management would purposefully not say goodbye back to you if you left “early”. Taking vacation and sicks days is uncomfortable due to lack of flexibility. Little to no training plan, and everyone’s too busy to train properly. Technology could be improved to be less manual. Very judgmental and inflexible management (aside from 1 person). Also, everyone is micro-managed and the smallest mistakes are blown out of proportion and you’re met with aggressiveness vs. a shared goal of fixing the problem and ensuring it didn’t happen again in the future. The canned response about “growing together” that I am sure I’ll also receive for this negative review is also not believable as they don’t care about their employees and upward management dictates your every move vs. allowing you to grow, learn, think and make any sort of real decisions for yourself related to your work, and even how you spend your free time (since working weekends and all nighters are not rare). Technology could be made less manual and more automatic.

Pros

- We have a truly collaborative culture - there's tons of opportunity to both learn and teach - The fast pace means an awesome amount of responsibility and growth for each team member - there's no bureaucracy or "red tape" involved - There's a real focus on personal growth and education - We have a get-things-done atmosphere, which motivates the team and allows us to see amazing results quickly - The product is super interesting and in a quickly evolving space

Cons

As with any startup, your schedule can sometimes be unpredictable

Pros

- Super smart team with a ton of talent & knowledge they're willing to share - A lot of responsibility soon after you start, you'll hit the ground running right away - Open and creative environment, you're encouraged to try out your own ideas

Cons

- As the company continues to grow, so does our structure and processes which are a work in progress. If you're looking for a lot of structure from day 1, this may not be the best fit for you.
