ZipRecruiter Reviews

Cons

Being a tech company change is constant, sometimes there are major communication issues between product marketing and sales.

Cons

Goals can sometimes seem out of reach.

Cons

Tons of change, some necessary. It’s called “building a rocket ship mid flight” which makes sense. CEO/ Directorial teams seem to focus more on pointless metrics to put you in a box than catering to different sales styles.

Cons

Long hours, uncertain about longevity

Cons

The management team is unprofessional and not educated on how to lead a team. They need to give more on-going training and have more attainable goals. I have heard from the mouths of upper management that they don’t care about the sales floor. They are just trying to hit their ridiculous goals at the expense of employees.

Cons

-Rapid change (not for everyone)
-Fast industry, competitors quick to make changes so always need to remain educated

Cons

If you are good at dealing with office politics, this is the place for you to climb

Cons

None . think the company is great

Cons

Unattainable Goals
Used to be all about work balance, now can barely take time off
Very easy to get demoted or fired for performance
high turnover rate

Cons

I won't speak for the entire organization because from what I can see, there isn't much to complain about company-wide. My observations are specifically pertaining tot he sales department in the Arizona office. I've been in sales all my adult life and the ZipRecruiter Sales department is by far the most stifling and least friendly departments to work. You've never experience micro-management like this before. The department recently had some massive changes to compensation, goals, product, pitches, marketing, and culture. Leaders here will beat your ear drums until they bleed about growth and making you a strong and marketable sales person, but the truth is that the environment is a churn-and-burn style with employees. When I began in 2016, turnover in sales was under 2%, now it's over 25%. Certainly, not everyone who's hired is cut out for gritty tele-sales but the numbers and my anecdotal experience will tell you that this place eats its young and moving up will be extremely hard, there was a point in time when it was extremely easy but the doors are closed. I wouldn't recommend a sales role here, every other department is amazing and will have an enjoyable atmosphere. Only take a sales role if you are a pitbull of a salesperson and are amazing at managing stress, this place will dump stress on you 100x what it needs to.
