Ho lavorato a tempo pieno presso Trustpilot (Meno di un anno)
Vantaggi
- Great product that actually adds value
- Work / life balance
Svantaggi
- Toxic environment and team culture (I speak for my team only here)
- Constantly being told to “play the game”. I guess this is due to the corruption that takes place??
- The people in charge of recruitment are overselling. I was given false information on my role and responsibilities
- SOME managers are showing favouritism and gossiping
- People throw you under the bus for their own errors
- My line manager pushed me out of the company when I questioned some of the things mentioned
- After I left the company my line manager refused to give me a reference, despite the fact that I had proven achievements in my short time there
- When I raised my concerns and feelings of unhappiness in the work place, I was asked to “keep going” with my work. I was later placed on “targets”
- Joining this company was the worst decision I ever made. If you are considering joining, please be cautious

Candidatura
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Trustpilot a giugno 2017.
Colloquio
Kinda nonsense.
The woman I interacted with from HR was perfectly pleasant and a great representative of the company.The woman who was the director of ADRs was intelligent and someone I would have enjoyed to work for. The manager...... this is where it gets bad.
Really bad.
The process starts with a screening call from HR, and then you meet this person in NYC as well as the director and manager. The manager I met with was terrible; unpleasant, unprofessional, ineffective. Adds to the kind of corporate toxic environment I have learned trust pilot is effected with. Literally spending the 20 min in the room with her during that session was the most uncomfortable 20 min of 2017 for me. Shortly after this I learned that the income potential was 35k, with an ote of 55k ish. However, unlike most jobs where ote is an actual estimate of income, at trust pilot it is the projection of the top 1% of ADRs. The role you get promoted into, as I asked the hr person about, maxes out around 70k "on target earnings". So I'm forced to assume, based on my other knowledge of their projections of OTE, that that number is closer to 55-60k. So after this initial meeting I am pretty sure I am not going to work there, but maintain the relationship in case I don't get an offer from anywhere else. I then have 3 "assignments", pretty standard for sales applications, due over the next few days; basically you pick a company to pitch trust pilot to. However, the same day you submit your company you are scheduled to do a mock sales call with, you guessed it, the wonderful manager I mentioned before. The hr person said it would take five minutes, by the time I got off the phone(for the third time with her, we ran through it three times) it had taken 45 min. Which was significant, that day I was interviewing for jobs that actually offered decent packages and non-toxic working environments, and not looking to get surprised with long phone calls with unpleasant people. (Which I got, both of them... one 40k ote 63 other 50k ote 78k. Just add this to show that there are way better opportunities out there people). During the mock sales call the major critique was.... "that's not exactly what trust pilot does, they don't "gather" reviews they "generate" reviews. " she was getting mad I didn't have facts to rattle off about trust pilot and didn't have a scripted understanding of what the company offered. Before. I'm. Even. Working. There. I subsequently got off the phone asap, having made up my mind I would not have worked there if they paid me(more then the just above welfare wages I would have been making). I could tell the Micromanagement would have been awful. As I have seen from workers reviews there, it is awful. I can't speak for the entire company, but as far as the ADR package, the sales culture, and the interview process, stay farrrrrr far away, many better more lucrative options in NYC.
