Pros

These are becoming insignificant because the current senior management is so poor

Cons

One of the Senior Leadership Team sets the worst possible example. Never in the office until well after 9.30 and leaves at 4.30. Spends half the day outside vaping, I've seen him asleep on his office sofa (as has half the site) and leaves around 4.30. When us staff work so hard, this is a kick a in the teeth and then he struts around like he own's the place that he seems to know nothing about. However, when we have site visitors he's here at all hours, that is the only time. As soon as they disappear, so does he. Recently we had our commission structure changed so significantly that it has altered our quality of living. How was this announced???? It wasn't, I found out when I got my wage packet whilst Senior Management were too scared to communicate and hid in their office. Disgusting treatment of staff.

Pros

I've been with this company now for 10 years and I love it. It's a fantastic place to work. There's plenty of venues for assistance if you need help of any kind. The hours are reasonable and flexible. I had all my children during my tenure with GoDaddy and the support, time off and accommodations were nothing short of outstanding. I love the team I work with. There's a lot of room for growth and internal opportunities. The leadership here is unlike anywhere I've worked previously. GoDaddy has an eye for leadership talent and it shows. Overall, I love the company I work for.

Cons

I wouldn't say it's a 'con' but opportunities for growth require initiative, Expanding your comfort zone and getting to know people really help.

Pros

Great benefits, cool people (not including leadership)

Cons

- You'll be worked like a slave, told when you can take your breaks and lunches. - Boy's Club. If you're in it, you can get away with lying to customers, breaking company policy, and basically whatever you want. If you're not part of it, watch your back, you'll be hyper-scrutinized for every action you take. - Commissions are capped, so top performers are limited. - This is not a true sales job, you are taking inbound customer service calls and will be expected to do technical support and deal with escalated inbound customers. - Much of the job has been outsourced to a Business Partner Organization (BPO) in the Philippines. Because they aren't true GoDaddy employees, they are allowed to operate like the wild wild west. Lying to customers, selling them duplicate products, deleting things from their accounts and reselling them the same product. Basically a complete legal nightmare... but you aren't allowed to complain about it and you are expected to fix all the problems they create.
