Pros

Great concept, unlimited PTO and outstanding HR department

Cons

This company is a disaster. Literally no method to their madness. If you like getting messages from 500 Slack channels and working at a company where your quarterly goals and performance doesn't matter - this is the job for you. Oh also, they were dead to me after they wiped out 2 entire teams in one week because they "wanted to go in a different direction"... whatever that means. Maybe their leadership should go in a different direction. I call them MarketerFire after that bizarre experience.

Thank you for your note. As one of the fastest-growing companies in B2B tech, we often need to adapt and evolve, and every change we make is always done in the best interest of our team and customers. We know things change quickly and sometimes changes come at a cost, especially for those impacted by the changes. You highlighted some concerns we’d like to address: As it relates to structure, we hold employee privacy in the highest regard. As such, we always keep confidential any specific circumstances surrounding employment. As a fully-remote company, we know Slack can get busy and be overwhelming at times – which is a modern challenge lots of remote companies are living with. Slack is one of our most important tools and we’re actively working internally to improve our communication flow. Regarding goals, we have and will continue to set company goals, which we re-evaluate quarterly. We can always improve how those are shared and reviewed and appreciate that feedback. Thank you again for reaching out. We do take all feedback seriously and would welcome the opportunity to discuss in more detail if you’re open to it. You can reach me anytime at hr@marketerhire.com Best, Leslie (Chief of Staff)

Pros

Client Matching: The platform effectively matched me with a client whose needs and preferences aligned with my expertise, resulting in a fulfilling and productive working relationship. Supportive Management: The XA Managers have been readily available to assist with any questions or issues I encountered, providing valuable guidance and support throughout the project. Timely Payments: I've consistently received my invoices on time, ensuring a reliable and hassle-free payment process.

Cons

Salary Increase Uncertainty: While freelancing offers flexibility, it can also be challenging to negotiate salary increases. I'm unsure if there's a clear process or guidelines for requesting a raise within the MarketerHire platform.

Pros

None. I've gotten zero work from the company.

Cons

If you are a freelancer, don't waste your time with this platform. I was aggressively pursued by their "Talent Acquisition" team to complete my profile and get everything activated. I was promised they had clients waiting with pay averaging $3-7k a month. I had a thorough vetting process with lots of unpaid questions that required detailed answers. I spent 5-6 hours completing everything thrown my way. After "activating" my profile, another outsourced employee gave my profile the green light. Great, right? The work was about to start flowing in! Wrong. It's been 3 months since wasting time on this garbage platform just to get ghosted by every employee I've ever been in contact with. Their acquisition team is clearly incentivized to onboard as many freelancers as possible with ZERO follow-through. Once a freelancer's profile is activated they act as if you don't exist. Big ol' waste of time. If you do decide to onboard with this company, comb through their contract... it's extremely risk heavy on the freelancer's end, requires you to have business insurance, and so much more. Be careful.
