Whitepages Employee Reviews about "work life balance"

Pros

I've worked at Whitepages close to a year now, and I can honestly say that it is the healthiest work environment I've ever been a part of. Although the company is relatively small, and there's a lot to get done, leadership promotes healthy work/life balance, and understands that not everything can be done at once. For a team of this size, Whitepages has a lot of incredibly talented folks. The company as a whole is is full of collaborative, fun people, and it's apparent that we all genuinely enjoy working together. The diversity here is unlike anything I've ever seen for a company this size. Whitepages leadership/recruiting doesn't just talk the talk - they actually walk the walk when it comes to recruiting/hiring people from all different walks of life. It's very refreshing. For a not-so-sexy product, I've thoroughly enjoyed a lot of the projects I've worked on (more so than I expected, to be honest). Every employee is encouraged to take ownership of their projects, get creative, and push back when they feel strongly about something. There's a lot of transparency within the company. It's easy to see how your work impacts the business. The company pays competitively and offers a lot of perks (free snacks, drinks, HH, Friday lunches, good insurance, solid bonus structure, etc.) Whitepages genuinely values their employees. Leadership cares about every person here not only as an employee, but as a person. They make that apparent in how they handle career development & personal goals, health/benefits, etc.

Pros

One of my favorite parts of working at Whitepages is the amount of ownership I am given. We run a small team and everyone plays a big role, which gives me a lot of excitement to come to work everyday. All of the managers I interact with are very supportive and happy to help at any time, but also give you the space and trust to get your work done. My teammates are also always willing to drop what they are doing to answer a question or help me with something. I can tell that my team and managers want to help me grow and excel here. The people overall are really great here and lots of fun to be around. Another important 'pro' of working here is that I have a great work life balance. They understand that we have lives, get sick, have to go to the doctor, need vacations, etc. The company has evolved a lot since I started, especially since Rob became CEO, and is more focused than when I started. I am very lucky to work at such a great company!
