Pros

Free soda and coffee, dress code is very relaxed, team oriented work environment, good place to get some experience to help you get your next job.

Cons

Like the title says, they are always hiring because they're always firing. In the short time I was there, one of the sales guys told me that almost half of the sales team was let go at one time. If you deal with chronic anxiety issues, forget this job. High pressure to keep up the learning pace. Zero job security. Read the other reviews, see the consistency in which a lot of current and former employees say that Liquid Web doesn't value they're hard working people. Rude and aggressive customers. Management that says they will work with you when you're struggling, but do not. Buys companies to eliminate competition then provides poor transition services to the customers of the old companies, making the customers understandably angry, and also lays off the majority of the purchased company's workers. Management complains that the ticket queue is constantly high, but they don't keep enough people to keep the queue low.

Pros

Very talented coworkers who are doing their best in a difficult environment

Cons

Leadership lacks a clear understanding of the industry and does not seek input from subject matter experts internally. This results in poor strategic decisions and frequent reactive changes. There have been ongoing layoffs, with responsibilities continuously redistributed to remaining employees without appropriate support, training, or realistic expectations. This has created an unsustainable workload and a constant sense of instability. Employee input is consistently overlooked. Ideas, feedback, and proactive contributions are rarely acknowledged or acted on, which creates a culture where people feel undervalued and disengaged. Communication from leadership is often dismissive and, at times, disrespectful. Employees are not treated as partners in the business, and there is a noticeable lack of trust and transparency. Blame is frequently placed on teams when initiatives fall short, despite a lack of direction, resources, or proper onboarding into new responsibilities.
