Pros

What it is like to work on recruiting team at Indeed Austin First of all, Indeed is an amazing company to work for. I personally feel like my work matters and I am not just a number. I feel I am a valuable employee pushing this company forward and contributing to its growth. Team - Our team in Austin is very collaborative and everyone is here to help one another. It is not a cut throat environment by any means. Yes, we have big goals, but I feel like my manager is realistic when reviewing my performance. If I have a certain number of hires to reach and I do not, we take a look at what challenges I was facing that quarter, whether it be with difficult reqs, candidate pipeline, or tracking down feedback. It is not just black and white, I feel like the quality of my work is valued just as much as the quantity. Systems - We recently moved to a new ATS which, as expected, caused a few hiccups. There were massive amounts of candidate records and data that had to be transferred and scrubbed clean. The new ATS is quite different from what we were using before and it has taken some time for people to adjust. The good news is that a lot of processes have been streamlined (i.e. offer approval, interview scheduling requests) which is a huge win for everyone. Career progression - This has been a hot topic on everyone’s mind. The way I see it - ask yourself how often are you expecting to be promoted or how long have you actually been with the company to deserve a promotion? Most people are still relatively new to the organization (except for a few), yet everyone wants to know when they will be promoted. To this I say - prove yourself, get your tenure in, and the opportunities will come your way. Work hard, do excellent work and you will be recognized. There is proof it happens as one of our Sourcers moved into a Sourcing Manager role and one of our recruiters is going to Dublin to manage a team there for a year. All and all, I love Indeed and our recruiting team and there is no other company in Austin I’d rather work for.

Cons

We are still working on customizations of our new ATS and it sometimes slows down some of our work but we will figure it all out one way or another.

Pros

Everything. Unlimited PTO, breakfast/lunch, relaxed environment, lenient work hours. The CEO sits on the floor and interacts like a normal employee. Indeed Wellness program, Indeed GoodDeeds, the events every month, the quarterly meetings, the people, my colleagues, the innovation, the collaboration, etc. The list literally goes on forever.

Cons

You will gain weight if you indulge in all the foods they have to offer!

Pros

*Management* -Recognizes and rewards hard work and dedication. -Great culture and mentality comes from the top down. -Employees are entrusted to get their work done without someone constantly looking over their shoulder. Micromanagement simply does not exist in my department. I think this comes from the practice of hiring people with good personal responsibility. -Transparency. Employees are updated on the state of the company regularly. -Personally, I feel like I've experienced tremendous professional growth in the time I've been here so far. This is a direct result of working with a great manager. *Work Hard / Play Hard Mentality* Lots of events in and out of the office. Voluntary all night Hack-A-thons with music and food where co-workers get together and think up / build anything they want. (Anything from new work tools/ improvements to filmed movie spoofs, hand made DDR arcades and drones. You name it! The pool of talent here is amazing.) People will zip by on scooters in the office. Competitive and fun pool and ping pong tournaments. Trivia happy hours. It's a great/fun atmosphere, you get the idea. *Great Work/Life Balance* -Unlimited PTO means you don't have to worry about running out of accrued time off when something comes up. Use it responsibly and you're golden. -The company encourages healthy lifestyles outside of work. Employees often get together for marathon runs / rugged maniac courses, etc. -Flexible schedule -Affinity groups for co-workers with common interests to get together outside of work. *Close Knit and Diverse Community of Co-Workers* You'll meet people from all over the world here and likely make more than a few friends across departments. This is especially true in the Search Quality department. Never have I worked with a more diverse and interesting group of people that work so well together. Really remarkable. *Education / Training* -Outside of normal coaching, classes and seminars are available on a variety of topics including effective communication techniques and building leadership skills. -Tuition reimbursement program -In response to a previous review: Training in the Search Quality department is not done in a class setting (at this time) but via hands on, one on one, sessions with leads / experienced co-workers. The team generally hires individuals who are able to quickly grasp new concepts and run with them, so there's not a lot of hand holding. If a new employee is having difficulty, additional coaching and training sessions are always available. *Other Perks* -Coffee and Juice bar. Smoothies, juices, lattes, espresso, etc. made to order. -Large game room with pool tables, ping pong, foosball, shuffleboard, pinball and more. -Huge variety of endless snacks and drinks. All the Topo Chico you can drink. -Fully staffed cafeteria providing free breakfast and lunch daily. Sandwiches made to order. Menu changes daily and there are plenty of entree and side options for people with/without dietary constraints. I have none and was able to sample some octopus the other day at work. Not bad! -Craft beer on tap / rotation -Nice gym on site, complete with regularly scheduled yoga and cardio classes. -Comfortable "common" areas with sofas and arm chairs. Great for collaborating with co-workers or just working away from your desk for a while. -Beautiful courtyard for eating / working outside and enjoying the weather in Austin. Overall, I can say without a doubt this is an amazing place to work and grow. Highly recommended.

Cons

-There are a lot of employees. It'll take you a while to learn everyone's names.
