SeatGeek Reviews

Pros

SeatGeek is starting to disrupt the ticketing industry. It is exciting to be a part of the company that is truly focused on the customer. It is clear from top to bottom that we want to make it easier for the average person to see more events live.

Pros

-Competitive Salary
-Amazing Benefits and Perks (seems like were always getting more)
-Culture of transparency and inclusion
-Extremely talented people work here
-Lots of food

Pros

Lots of smart people who are willing to help. Employees are trusted which encourages people to learn quickly and take risks. The more I advocate for my own ideas around best practices and the more projects I execute, the more responsibility and autonomy I am given. However, there is no blame game and it is a relaxed atmosphere. I'm truly excited for what I will accomplish with my team here.

Also, lots of fun perks (parties, cold brew, beer, free tickets) and a nice (albeit crowded at the moment!) office in NYC. People here are friendly and there's a nice vibe in the office.

Advice to Management

D&I are very important and we do not want to be the company left behind in that area.
Please maintain the positive, relaxed but ambitious culture!

Pros

Supportive work environment and great people.
Opportunity to make your job what you want it to be.
Great growth opportunity and exposure to many different angles of role.
Hiring more experienced senior leadership.

Advice to Management

Slow down and get the structure in place. Assess senior leadership.

Pros

- Perks perks perks!: The perks we have around the office and through our benefits really help me cut down on my monthly expenses. It's a lot of small things that add up at the end of the month. I don't know how much money I save on coffee (a lot).
- Culture: My coworkers are a tight-knit but welcoming group of people. I feel like it's never too long before a new employee makes a friend or finds a group that they have something in common with. I feel like this is also really encouraged by the company through different community programs and is always at the forefront of everyone's mind.
- Personal Growth: As the company grows and expands there are a lot of new opportunities for projects and different ways for people to really stand out and grow into a role that they are passionate about and love. The company also encourages this by allowing a certain spend towards educational materials.
- Company Growth: SeatGeek is growing and changing, in a good way. So far our internal growth hasn't had too much of a negative impact on our culture (except for some expected growing pains/awkwardness at times) and it's an extremely exciting environment to be a part of.
- Looking Forward: I feel confident that SG is always looking ahead to improve our product, but also to improve how we treat employees. Really considerate and thoughtful management from the top down.

Advice to Management

Work on streamlining the process for decision-making when the executive team needs to get involved. Otherwise, keep doing what you're doing!

Pros

-Very smart, cool, and personable people
-Super exciting mission and growth trajectory
-Lots of autonomy and opportunities to work on a variety of different projects (and learn from them)
-Very transparent culture and capable leadership
-Amazing benefits (Citibike membership, $120 a month to spend on SeatGeek, great snacks/office space, lots of fun events held for employees)
-Cool opportunities for some people to actually travel to games for our clients (i.e. Saints and Cowboys games)

Advice to Management

Make it clearer + possible for newer employees to have a solid chance for career progression - it sort of feels like it's pretty tough for newer employees to get promoted over employees who've been at SeatGeek longer (within reason of course)

Pros

High growth with a lot of exciting new partnerships.

Pros

Work life balance, great snacks and coffee, transparency from executives, opportunities to meet and collaborate with employees outside of your direct team

Pros

-Wonderful people, friendly attitudes, collaboration
-Goal-oriented, deadline driven
-Many opportunities to grow within the company, referrals
-Super fun events, company-wide annual retreats, holiday parties, monthly happy hours and many more opportunities to get to know each other
-flexible WFH policy
-Transparency from a high-level
-Spotify / Headspace / Citibike / OneMedical subscriptions = major perks if you use them!

Advice to Management

-focus on work-life balance for employees, general mental health and wellness can go a long way for all employees

Pros

SeatGeek is a quickly-growing company in a fun and challenging industry. The business is strong, but just as impressive is the principled approach led by senior leadership.

The engineering team is careful in its decision-making and pragmatic in its implementation. The team has matured without taking the fun out of development, which isn't easy. Overall they're a professional and remarkably talented group.
