Sales

Sales Representative (Current Employee)

I have been working at Dice full-time for more than 3 years

ProsGood people - everyone works hard. Product is solid but not spectacular.

ConsTechnology at times seem a little dated. Company does not move as fast as competition is moving in product development. Product team needs to think outside the box.

Advice to Senior ManagementFocus on the customer and end users. Use the customer input that the sales team bring in to move the product forward.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Good Company but Very Stressful, good bonus program

Information Technology (Former Employee)
Urbandale, IA (US)

I worked at Dice full-time for more than a year

ProsExcellent benefits, nice people, everyone is very friendly, good bonus program

ConsTheir expectations for project timelines are unattainable at times. IT and Accounting are always battling with little power plays back and forth. IT and Accounting directors are extremely difficult to work for as they do not communicate there needs in a professional manner. Have realistic goals and needs better communication.

Advice to Senior ManagementManagement needs to give better direction and remember what direction they have given. Inform the employees of the direction they are trying to go in instead making changes constatnly. Stay with one game plan and not change in the middle of things. Have realistic goals.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Unpredictable...

National Accounts Executive (Former Employee)
Fort Lauderdale, FL (US)

I worked at Dice full-time for less than a year

ProsSalary was good. Compensation was good. Coworkers were great.

ConsLack of communication from management.

I was terminated without so much as a verbal warning, a written review, or final warning. I got a call from my manager, and out of the blue I was informed I was terminated.

Beware a company that lacks communication.

As far as I knew, I was an employee in good standing.

I moved from Colorado to Florida to take this job. In less than six months, I was fired. Again, without so much as a performance review.

Beware! Beware! Beware!

Advice to Senior ManagementCommunicate with your field sales team!

At one time a great company to work for, not so much the last 6 years.

Anonymous Employee (Current Employee)

I have been working at Dice full-time for more than 8 years

ProsTalented co-workers, good vacation benefits and over-all company culture amoung lower ranks. SR. Management has the potential to be effective, if there was more oversite on HR practices.

ConsOut of touch senior management, deplorable HR that unfortunately covers-up or creates problems. Real issues seem to not make it to senior management. Favoritism and unprofessionalism is especially noted. Wistle blowers have been terminated, leaving the rest of us to look the other way or face the same fate.

Advice to Senior ManagementPlease hire new HR personnel. The current team ia not reporting real issues that could lead to lawsuits if not corrected. In large part the HR Dept is the biggest problem Dice has.

Good Place to Work, Best for Marketing, Sales and IT

Anonymous Employee (Current Employee)
New York, NY (US)

I have been working at Dice

ProsWork-Life Balance, smart management, engaging teams. Management seems interested in opinions from everyone and will listen to opposing views without prejudice.

ConsConservative management, sometimes intervenes in decisions better left to technical or line managers and staff. Marketing-driven, sometimes at expense of smooth operation.

Advice to Senior ManagementKeep the relatively flat organization chart, talk more to end users, even the small ones, be more aggressive with PR at all levels.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
