Worst work environment!!!! Do not work here - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Taboola

Where to even begin... let's start with the really terrible micromanagement and passive aggressive directors. They dump unnecessary workloads onto you that shouldn't be your responsibility, and they will continue to pile on the work despite you voicing your concerns about it exceeding your bandwidth. They force their employees to come into the office during a pandemic several times a week when there's very CLEAR hesitation about getting sick. Mind you, this office has been shut down several times due to many employees testing positive for COVID. They don't care and are extremely tone deaf to what's going on in the world. There's painfully obvious turnover in the pub department - most people did not even make it a year. HUGE favoritism only towards Israelis, and the CEO hires a majority of his employees who have no real experience pertaining to their roles just because they are Israeli. Non inclusive to other minorities, especially anyone that's of any other middle eastern descent. Toxic work culture, no work life balance, they expect you to respond to emails and chats at all hours of the day, throw last minute meetings on your calendar before/after working hours, and constantly ask for updates on things they already know the answers to or is just busy work. They also typically exceed 10-15 hours of meetings per week causing burnout and lack of motivation/time to get anything else done. No flexible vacation policies - only give a max of up to 2 weeks per year (and that's not including sick days. they expect you to use your very minimal PTO for sick days). My team and I were told we should be weary of taking vacation so soon after our start dates - especially because we were new and it was a busy period. Meanwhile, the directors were allowed to take weeks of PTO while an entirely new team had to scramble to figure everything out themselves. One of the directors once said if we're not traveling abroad for vacation then we should still be online to check on emails....... Definitely don't think they care for anyone who's in a 'lower' position on the scale. The pay is insanely low for the adtech industry and there's zero room for growth. You could easily get a much higher salary anywhere else in the tech industry for less stress. It's not worth it in my opinion . This place is a joke serving clickbait 'content recommendations' to consumers, trying to pretend they're of a grander stature than what they truly are. Products are uninspired, outdated, and glitchy - and the solutions teams are outsourced from Israel/India so you never hear back from them in a timely manner. Then you end up doing their work for them on top of everything else!!! Gross, toxic environment with terrible directors who don't know how to boost morale or even manage a team together. Honestly i'm really curious to know how they even got the positions they're in because this literally would not fly anywhere else - super unprofessional company. Would never ever refer anyone to work here.
