iCIMS Reviews

Pros

I had a wonderful experience interviewing with iCIMS, and was beyond impressed with the training and onboarding that each new employee gets. It really gave me a great feel for the company and it's values. I joined just as COVID-19 really made the news and have been impressed with how the company has handled this. From frequent meetings with upper management, to clearly seeing how pulse check survey results are being used to improve the quality of life of iCIMS employees. It's been a great experience so far and I'm excited to learning and growing with this team.

Cons

There seems to be some disconnect between the parent company and the companies that were acquired that is still being worked through internally. Sometimes it feels like we're all on the same team working towards a goal, other time it feels like multiple teams are fighting over shared resources to accomplish the same goal. Not awful necessarily as anyone in a big or even small organization can feel this way.

Pros

Up to date tech stack. Decent amount of free food and drinks. The company has often shown their appreciation for the employees. Haven't experienced micromanaging. We're given freedom/flexibility to work however works best for us.

Cons

Below market pay. New CEO has very different approach to leading the company than the previous. The culture has always been the best part of working here, and now it seems to be changing for the worse. In the midst of the pandemic, layoffs, and reorgs, our Townhall meetings are rushed through and filled with unhelpful motivational speaches. Employee concerns and questions are ignored. The employee morale is the lowest it's been in the years I've worked here (I'm aware COVID shares responsibility for this). During a hiring freeze and layoffs, the new CEO hired his daughter. Sales is favored by upper management over other departments.

Pros

Very supportive colleagues, good manager and overall a transparent company with management that truly cares.

Cons

Compensation can always be better

Pros

Strong vision, purpose, and values of the company Focused on customer outcomes Great benefits An incredible employee base Strong leadership - leading in uncertain times

Cons

Like most companies around the US, iCIMS is facing some challenges resulting from the pandemic and the company had to make some tough decisions

Pros

For those that have never worked for a company that was acquired by a PE group, the recent changes (org restructure, layoffs, leadership changes) have hit pretty hard it seems. The fact that it is all happening during a pandemic does not help either. That said, these are all business decisions that make sense big picture and will allow for the company to grow and that growth is something I am excited about. Pro's: * Team members * Management * Fair comp * Competitive Solutions

Cons

I do wish a different tone was struck during all of this. Less locker room pump up speeches and more transparency/empathy would go alot further IMO. Reference other industry leaders & organizations and their handling. It's ok to be excited, but know the time and place.
