Pros

Decent benefits - insurance, $30 lifestyle stipend, Xmas gift, PTO.

Cons

The CEO - James Clarke's lack of empathy reached shocking lows when he praised an employee who sold their dog to return to the office. The company's organizational chaos is evident, with frequent layoffs followed by the re-posting of the same positions shortly after. Moreover, their acquisition strategy spells disaster for smaller businesses, as they acquire and dismantle entire teams without hesitation a few years later. If you have unused PTO hours, they're gone. You don't receive cash compensation. They don't provide visa sponsorship. If you were foreign nationals, don't ever consider working here. Their policies aren't friendly to you.

Pros

-Uber Eats Vouchers/Vouchers for food on campus -PTO hours are added every week

Cons

Clearlink went from a CEO that didn’t give a single care about the employees to new leadership that seems to care now but with that, I feel like the new people aren’t aware of what’s really going on. When you’re hired here, boy, do they sell you the dream! Everything is good, and slowly you start to lose hope & very quickly you learn this company is going downhill one way or another. I was part of the social team for years. We were promised growth and new opportunities and that NEVER happened. We’d bring up concerns about leadership in our individual team and the concerns were NEVER taken seriously, because as I easily learned, this company is like high school, they will protect their friends even if it means losing a brand partner. The higher ups will have random meeting to talk about the department & there’s specific higher ups who feel the need to show off their Disney trips/cruises while some of us are struggling to even keep up with bills and living paycheck to paycheck. Overall, there’s A LOT of broken promises on growth. Pay sucks and it’s hard to get a pay raise. Any concern you bring to a higher up will leave you ignored or they won’t do anything about it. Your career won’t grow here unless you’re BFFs with higher ups that have been there forever.
