I can literally go on any website right now and find someone's dumb opinion. You're reading my dumb opinion right now. Why are we doing this.

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?
Damn, I think this would be a high Eh, It's Probably Fine if it had salary transparency, but it doesn't. That's a big bummer, because I think there are a lot of positive cultural signals, and it would be a fun, meaty role for the right person. I reluctantly place this in Tread Carefully.
I'm putting this in BINGO purely for how insufferable this company sounds.
Honestly, this job description is pretty forgettable. It's not terrible, but it's not good either; candidates get very little information about the structure of the team they'd be leading, and the only hint at culture we get is a single bullet about the office being pet-friendly.
No compensation, no mentions of benefits anywhere, no idea if it's onsite or remote, and the location is just "Usa, New York Office." Honestly, I'm not even convinced this is a real company. I'm gonna say Seriously, Maybe Don't.
Blah blah woof woof capitalism, but a company that wants to use you to build private wealth for others but won't deign to tell you what the compensation package is is especially hypocritical and I just cannot (Farther for me, but not for thee?).
Still just vibes, still a BINGO.
Since they're expecting candidates to operate on vibes only, so am I! And my vibes tell me this is a BINGO.
Otherwise, it seems like an interesting role, but I'm disappointed there's no salary transparency and that they ask for desired salary in the application. I thought you were better than that, BetterCloud!
And by "ability to work under pressure" they mean okay with slowly being crushed under the weight of expectations, inexperience, and your 300-500 accounts until you're a tiny, person-shaped material denser than osmium.
See the Senior Customer Success Manager position for what Oyster did that pissed me off so much that I automatically BINGOed out this one too.
I don't even care what the rest of the job description says. I am invoking my power as Supreme Bad Job Bingo Dictator to automatically BINGO this company out.
Not provide fast responses and resolutions or excellent customer service, but fast TIMES and SCORES. Goddamn.
You should do a general internet search for Therapy Brands. The results are...not good, particularly in light of the fuss they make about how awesome they are on their Careers page.
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.
If the job descriptions mentioned tiny little things like compensation and benefits, I might not judge them so harshly, but it doesn't.
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.
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.
Would be in Eh, It's Probably Fine if not for the lack of salary transparency. It's your own fault, Airbnb.
Boo, no salary transparency. Companies should always be transparent, not just when they have to be! I expected better from you, Airbnb.
