Top Review Highlights by Sentiment
- "Everything is always changing, managers don’t put forth the effort to inform you of where your at." (in 12 reviews)
- "So to paint the picture for you.. bad training + no ramp up + lead scarcity = everyone is in the red." (in 4 reviews)
- "whoops kind of already went over the cons but bottom line, no job security, unprofessional management, I used to think the company outlook was good but from what I'm hearing with the failure of our new product and most likely failure of the opening of the AZ office, i'm sure the santa monica office will be closed soon."

Pros
- Positive coworkers who are very welcoming. - Salary, benefits, and perks are great. - Leadership regularly shows us they're improving benefits, perks, conditions, etc. - When COVID mandates were lifted they opened up the office but no one was forced to go back in. It's open for those that want to go in but we can stay remote if we choose. Very much appreciated. - The diversity and inclusion initiatives feel like they are really supported by the company and leadership.
Cons
- Very fast paced environment so you need to be able to keep up - Work-life balance can be confusing to navigate. Some people work late but no one outwardly expects you to work late. Most likely due to the fast paced, short deadline workload.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Working at ZipRecruiter has been absolutely amazing! The benefits are unmatched and the potential for upward mobility (in my department at least) is not only realistic, but encouraged. Every single person I have met has been kind, supportive, and receptive to whatever I need help with. I have never worked somewhere where my feedback has been heard and also implemented, but it has here. I hope to be at Zip for many years to come.
Cons
Pretty heavy workload, but I think that comes with being part of a growing company. Not a bad thing if you enjoy what you're doing and who you're doing it with.

Pros
Overall, a pleasant virtual environment (wfh), adequate training, some management is more responsive than others, great insurance.
Cons
Don’t get sick. They don’t care. Your immediate manager has little influence- no matter how much talk of culture and treating workers well, and responsive they may be to work questions, your manager has their heads tied. This is an executive policy. They seem to look for a reason to fire people who are sick. There is a draconian attendance policy in your first 120 days (and beyond), even under doctors care it seems that they look for a reason to write you up, and after 1 1/2 missed days (regardless of medical reason) you have unfair corrective action, then if you are really sick you get fired if you miss 4 days. They say well we give you Sick and Safe time- but that accrues 1+ hour per week working- definitely not enough should you fall victim to any number of illnesses that a wreaking havoc in our society- let alone a pandemic. If you have Covid, they require you to jump through hoops of documentation to prove you need time off. I’ve never had an employer with such a willful disregard for employees health. Work or get fired in your first 4 months.

Pros
Potenti to make a lot of money, great people, great culture
Cons
Heavy workload at times, and when you're not performing, you're not really important...but I guess that's sales, right?
- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
This is the only job I have ever felt that my choices have a real impact on the business. Good to great compensation (depending on where you live). They handle fully remote employees well.
Cons
Having agency means others have agency as well, which can lead to prioritization problems and difficulty ensuring we are moving in the same direction. We have too many VPs and SVPs and there are some people who are VPs and SVPs who shouldn't be. The People Team is a mess. There is a lot of legacy results of not-invented-here syndrome that bog down attempts to modernize the stack.
