Technical Support Engineer
I don't know, y'all; my spidey sense is tingling with this one. It could be nothing, but just...tread very carefully.

*MC voice* Ladies, gentlemen, and variations thereupon: here we have the latest and greatest in corporate employee management: Sparring sessions! For when verbally berating your employees just isn't enough. The beatings will continue until performance improves.
There's not a ton here, but what is here points to BINGO: no benefits, no salary transparency, and not-great culture signals.
Yes, I am putting this in Green Means Go despite no salary transparency, only because the hiring location is Europe / Middle East / Africa, which is so broad that it makes giving an actual salary range genuinely difficult, and everything else is just positive signals.
I thought this was probably otherwise okay until we hit the "Personal Characteristics" section, which was just one red flag after another. Not to mention the "What's In It For You?" section contains no actual benefits, and we've got ourselves a BINGO.
Kong shows their heart in their values and in the job description. I can see the shape of what they're trying to do, so I'm willing to extend the benefit of the doubt and assume they'll grow over time. I guess we'll see what I hear and how they fare in future JDs!
Identical to the other Support Engineer roles for Grafana, just in a different US time zone. Still great.

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 great, and the salary is amazing.
The role itself seems fine, but the salary range is very wide, and the low end is way too low for a Lead role (especially at a company like Netflix). I don't think that's enough to put it in Tread Carefully, but I would ask about it if I were a candidate.
Seems like a pretty straightforward role with no major flags. The salary is, of course, Netflix generous.
Overall, it's pretty clear they're looking for a discount manager, which is enough to put this in Tread Carefully.
I don't even know what this is supposed to mean, but you should NEVER EVER take on risk on behalf of the company employing you unless you're, like, a firefighter or something. Which this is very much not.
I think it would probably be fine, except there's no salary transparency, so into Tread Carefully it goes. Womp Womp.
I understand that it's customary for there not to be salary transparency in international roles, but I refuse to excuse companies simply because they're not required to have it, *especially* when they claim to offer competitive salaries.
This one is reader-submitted, and y'all. We're whipping out "unclear if you're joining a cult or a company" for maybe the first time ever, and I HAVEN'T EVEN LOOKED AT A JOB LISTING YET.
I'm pretty impressed with the job description overall. They manage to convey the qualities they're looking for without being unnecessarily prescriptive or ableist, they seem to understand well what they're looking for, and the stated goals are unusually grounded for a VP of Success position.
This role has the same weird (and ableist) culture signals as the other Manager roles. Also, there's no salary transparency and the application asks for your target comp range, so into Tread Carefully it goes.

I can tell you that I think they're asking too much from a Manager-level role, and I think the evolution in their Support approach is a bad signal for the function and the company's future. Tread Carefully.
This role seems like an interesting blend of Trust & Safety, Community, and Customer Support. Alas, there's no salary transparency, though, so into Tread Carefully it goes.
I am really struggling to understand this role at Match Group in comparison to the Trust & Safety Policy Manager role at Tinder (one of the dating apps in Match Group's portfolio).
