Avantages

While working there, the bonuses were very big, it could have easily doubled your salary with an average volume of work. The colleagues were nice, we were all young and passionate about the product and business idea. Schedule flexibility was great also flexibility was great.

Inconvénients

There were unfortunately more cons than pros - a lot of layoffs -upper management did not have any slight idea how the product worked and they made decisions based on false or irrelevant information - very bad communication, teams didn't know what other teams did, and they blame each other for issues that appear -also middle management had no idea what they were doing, sometimes I pity them as they had no power to change or say anything to the senior stakeholders -it doesn't offer you any opportunity to grow; in my team at least, in my time there was 1 lead role open and the person that got it wasn't really based on merit A lot of nepotism, this al also because the policy of the firm is to hire based in recommendation, so everyone is a friend of a friend, there were also a lot of couples, not like there is something bad, but this opened the door for a lot of drama, gossip and nepotism

Avantages

The people are great, I get along with all my coworkers, and with a small team in the US, I feel that they have my back if i need support or help with anything. Training their employees to do a better job - investing in people. Great product, hackajob intelligence is amazing. Consistent and open communication with managers. They have invested into tools to help employees succeed. Expectations are clearly communicated.

Inconvénients

Don't mind it personally, but for some people constant change can be a negative, and the company has startup energy. Wearing many hats and trying out new things all the time, less structure and more exploration, figure it out as we go.

Hi there I appreciate you taking the time to share this review. Your comments about the support within the US Team are awesome to read and we agree! I bet it was also great to be with the whole team at the recent RecFest (US) where hackajob intelligence was launched to the US market! Communication between managers/leaders and our people is something we've worked hard to improve so it's encouraging to hear that you feel it's open and expectations are clear. That, plus investing in learning and development for everyone really helps all of us deliver. We often hear feedback that ongoing change can create a working environment that's more challenging for some. This is an ongoing area of improvement for us, and we continue to try to find that balance between experimentation/newness and structure/consistency to find a better blend for everyone, but without losing the startup energy that has got us this far. If you have any suggestions on how we can continue to improve any aspect of working here, please reach out to me directly on Slack or via our People Office Hours. Thanks, Amy, VP People

Avantages

I joined hackajob about 6 months ago as part of the growing US team. I felt very supported by my manager and the entire team throughout my onboarding. The US team is very collaborative and it's been a great experience to partner with and learn from everyone on the team. In the past 6 months, I have had many opportunities for growth and a clear career progression plan, which I appreciate. Wins are celebrated by the team and everyone truly works together to solve challenges that come up. I have had 3 sales roles prior to working at hackajob, and I have been nothing but happy with the support, opportunities for growth, and rewarding environment here.

Inconvénients

As in any startup environment, things change quickly. Not necessarily a con, but it requires being open-minded and flexible.
