Pros

Spokeo is going through a metamorphosis. A few examples: Organization - Creating new teams to better focus on its core product (data), Product - Developing focus on critical opportunities to extend and create new offerings (and saying "no" to others that distract), and Culture - Investing in collaboration and management skills (among others) for tomorrow's staff and work environment. This in addition to improvements in benefits and continued commitment to the local community, makes Spokeo a great place to do great work in Pasadena and be friends with colleagues inside and outside the office.

Cons

There is a lot of opportunity here. The key is to prioritize and stay focused. Some people watch what happens, others wondered what happened, and others make it happen. Spokeo is actively, intentionally looking for folks that fit this last group of people as there is a lot of work to be done. You'll make a positive mark on the company and industry as you deliver!

Pros

I worked on the email team a millennia ago, not sure if it still exists today. It was a fun job not answering calls. Very small biannual raises, maybe a quarter or two increase an hour. They reward seniority and tenure. Actually, it's one of the reasons why I left, couldn't stomach seeing some of the leadership day-in-day-out. One of the team leads couldn't contain his energy whenever he was provided attractive female customer service agents to supervise, tried to put on alpha-ish displays and wore small tight shirts. Kind of created a weird aggro morale for his team, even promoted several times up to executive office for some reason. BUT thankfully, my coworkers were awesome!! This was definitely a temporary job for someone in between careers, there were lots of unique personalities, lots of snacks, company events, so I'd say the morale team (yes one of those existed) did a pretty good job.

Cons

Whoops, just read the above
