The job description is thorough and well-considered, and the pay is excellent, as are the benefits (among which are 100% company-paid for employees and dependents!). This is a high-ranking Eh, It's Probably Fine.
Having said all that, this role's responsibilities are well-scoped and make sense for a Director role, as do the requirements, which distinguish it well enough from the VP position. If it weren't for the lack of salary transparency, this would still go in Eh, It's Probably Fine, but alas.
Yet again, what would otherwise be a solid Eh, It's Probably Fine is getting thrown into Tread Carefully instead because there is no comp given. I guess I have job security after all?
Whatever. You know what I'd say here if I weren't so goddamned tired. You know, from all the fucking capitalism.
Overall, this is a solid Eh, It's Probably Fine. Aside from a few flags (and asking for salary expectations on the application), it seems like a decent remote role with good benefits.
For roles in companies like these, upsides for some can be downsides for others: they're often really old-school working environments that tend to favor stability over rapid innovation. You skip a lot of the startup bullshit, but obviously, Business Granddaddies come with their own kind of bullshit.
It is galling – to say the least – to see Siena hiring human support for their product when they're happy enough for it to fuel an exaggerated AI craze that's led to a CX employment crisis everywhere else. The words irony and hypocrisy come to mind.
I think they're asking this role to do a lot of things, and unless they're hiring more than one person through this listing, I'm worried about the long-term success and energy of whoever ends up in it.
Seems like a neat role, although I do wish the salary range was higher.
Assuming this isn't just for show and they really are rewarding existing employee work and loyalty, it seems like a green flag to me. Overall, this is a clear job description and I see nothing but positive culture signals, so I'm throwing this in Green Means Go!
Not being clear about salary upfront wastes everyone's time and demonstrates a lack of respect for a candidate's experience. (This is true regardless of where in the world the role is based.) All that to say: show me the money, Airbnb.
Well, we're certainly building a narrative here, aren't we?
Man, I really want to put this in Eh, It's Probably Fine, but alas, they claim a competitive salary without then sharing the salary. So – well, you know how this ends.
So many flags in a single sentence! I appreciate their commitment to an efficient Bad Job Bingo game.
The company has an informative Careers page and the job duties make sense overall, but I'm going to say Tread Carefully for this one.
Seems great. Job description includes a lot of personality and both the JD and the Careers page are informative while showing a lot of positive culture signals.
Maybe they should have had Siena review this job listing before they posted it.
But I thought this is what Siena was for? Are you saying you need humans to support humans? Real food for thought.
Boy this job opening sure sounds like Support! But nah, can't be, they have their AI for that!
As with the Director of Support role, no comp given, no mention of benefits anywhere.
Do not do a shot every time you read the words "competent" or "competence." You will die of alcohol poisoning.
Job description is refreshingly free of "fast-paced, dynamic company" and "rockstar" language that's been so prevalent today. Salary's a little wide, but more than appropriate. This one might be a keeper!
There's a misalignment between the duties of this position and its seniority, and before you come at me with "they don't do titles! dudebro noises", they're at this very moment advertising for a Director of Engineering, so clearly they're familiar with the concept of leveling.
I think there's a lot of performance about culture happening on Pulley's Careers page, especially considering the explanation of culture they link to is a Twitter thread from 2020.
