It's a call center director position at a corporate giant, so, you know. Do with that what you will.
The salary range is interesting, to say the least – the low side is way too low, and I don't trust that the high side is actually on the table.
The duties of the role and title are badly misaligned – this should be a Director-level role.
One day I'll have a whole Bad Job Bingo session without a SaaS company claiming to change the world but TODAY IS NOT THAT DAY
Genuinely, y'all, I don't think they know what Support is. I'm not being funny. I think someone is very confused. Or I am very confused. One of us is very confused.
My first thought when looking at this company's Careers page was: "My god, they desperately need a middle-aged manager to decline their screentime requests an hour before bedtime."
Other than the casual ableism, this is a straightforward management role with a good compensation package.
If this is a global senior leadership position (as described in the JD), it really should be at the VP-level or higher. Otherwise, everything seems normal enough, although I'm not sure about the salary range – seems low for a position at this level that's also hybrid in New York.
Okay, for starters, none (save one) of the duties listed in this JD are Lead-level duties. They clearly want a discount Director/VP of Support. (And at $70k-$150k, we're talking a *real* discount.)
This, and the whole introductory paragraph, has some of the most flowery language to describe a middle manager role that I have ever read.
THIS IS NOT SUPPORT ENGINEER WORK. Is something in the water? Is Venus in retrograde? Am I in the Upside Down? WHAT IS HAPPENING.
Job description looks reasonable enough, but there's no salary transparency, so into Tread Carefully it goes.
Well-defined (and compensated) role and the company calls out in the JD how much they value their Success team. Obviously depends on how they actually treat the team, but it's nice to see.
I don't know if the hiring manager is an immature manager or what's happening here, but whoever wrote this job description does not have a good grasp of what makes a CX professional successful in their work. The only thing keeping this out of BINGO is that the salary is decent.
Given the work this role will be doing and how often they will be working with senior leadership, I think it probably should have a more senior title and a slightly higher salary range.
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!
This actually seems like a fairly well-scoped role, but the lack of salary transparency and culture issues that surfaced in the Head of Support role put this in Tread Carefully.
I'm torn on this one. I don't think I've ever seen a Customer Support Intern anywhere else, so that Okta offers an intern program for this is very cool. But the fact that they don't say what the comp is makes me think they're just trying to get Support work on the cheap.
Seems like an interesting, thoughtfully conceived role.
As with the other two roles listed here, no salary given and no mention of benefits anywhere.
