Pros
Flexible work life balance. Some teams work-from-home on Fridays with manager approval. Modest number of PTO days. 17.5 days starting off, but no sick days and no bank holidays. Generous tuition reimbursement (up to 10k in tech or MBA). Little/no take-home stress. In general the people working for CareerBuilder are a good group. If you don't need a competitive salary and highly value work-life balance, then CareerBuilder can be a decent set up. If you need a job to get off the street, CareerBuilder can be a decent set up. All others need not apply.
Cons
Employees are leaving in droves. Nearly everyone is looking for a new gig. Apollo Global's acquisition of CareerBuilder was a bad deal for employees. Non-sales roles are paid below market rate. Policy changes to bonus/401k contributions punish everyone including loyal employees and people that leave. Leadership sells the story, "we are rewarding people who stay and write the next chapter in CareerBuilder's legacy". But the truth is CareerBuilder has a retention problem and changing the timing on bonus/401k distributions saves money on turnover. CareerBuilder had a lot of bloat prior to the Apollo acquisition, but the dedication to eroding benefits when the company is highly profitable is an alarming trend (RIP summer hours). Salaries for non-sales are weak. This year we received 2% pay increases 4 months delayed that weren't back-paid to Jan 1. Leadership sells the narrative, "10% of the workforce received promotions and merit increases," but the reality is 35+% of the workforce left and their responibilities fell on the backs of those who stuck around. Most people have more responsibilities for the same pay and the same title.
