    Scamdeed is a joke, tried to give an honest review about a company I worked for and they rejected it. What a bunch of dirtbags, and hey Scamdeed save your BS response. This company is the worst. It's nothing but a bunch of bull crap.

    Hi Donovan, all company page reviews on Indeed are subject to a moderation process. Our goal is to ensure we are posting reviews that are transparent and reflect the true working experience of the company. However, if any part of a review violates our guidelines, we will not post it. You can view the guidelines at: https://go.indeed.com/KZ9KCA. Please review them, revise your review and repost it. Unfortunately, we are unable to discuss individual reviews that may not have been approved.

    To whom may concern. Since 2020, this site has been wasting your time. They track you based on your race. Many incompetent employers, and even worse companies, pay you less than you deserve and offer low ethical standards in ILL. Every company that hires based on discrimination will face your back, including the companies that support your low ethics. Companies are politically retaliating against their employees. No wonder businesses in this state are closing. Jobs should be supported and fair and effective measures should be taken to increase employment. Companies support employees who speak politically and act aggressively, regardless of their race or ethnicity. These losers companies will hire you based on your race or ethnicity.

    They hire illegals if are of their race, no questions, they are the worst employer in the United States. They accept applications, but they are low-IQ employers who will never succeed. Their managers discriminate. There is no training or respect, and managers' support based on their racial preferences if their race and interests match. I will report this to the highest level if it concerns any citizen, no exceptions. They gather your information and conduct interviews based on the level of discrimination first. This place needs a lot of moral support from the employees and businesses that have destroyed Illinois' economy. The employers and leaders have no privileges towards customers, and they will not have any privileges towards employees either. They are gangster companies, just like our gangster state. Scammers started from wrong leaders first.

      This site is useless. I submitted several applications through Indeed and when I found a job not using indeed I withdrew all the application. I submitted and close my account. I still got notifications and emails from jobs I had withdrawn my applications from so apparently this site is just garbage and misleading!

      I was so excited to land my lead position almost one year ago. The problem is I have not been able to do lead work and the manager is holding back on me. He doesn't even let me run the crew at all. I was just now a year later introduced to an app that was never shown to me. Once I set my app up, I realize it says in their sheet metal journeymen, which yes I am, but that's not the title I applied for. I know dang well that I saved the job ad and I also let Indeed know that I was interviewed and hired.

      I just recently went back on indeed to find all that information and come to find out. They only hold it for six months so now my proof is long gone. I need to have proof that I applied for a lead position in order to prove that I'm not allowed to do that type of work. Why would I use this website again when now I'm screwed? This would've been all I needed was a copy of that job posting. Thanks, Indeed I won't be coming back to you!

      Real bad service. They send you a message that you probably got hired but do not respond after that. Get your hopes up for no reason. It’s fake a scam. Customer service does not pick up the call. They care about the client or about the company not the person getting hired.

      Hello! We know that job searching can be tough. Please note that Indeed cannot control employer behavior, and that includes whether they respond to applicants. You might find our Career Guide helpful: https://www.indeed.com/career-advice. In addition, Indeed doesn't have a phone line for job seekers. Job seekers can contact our job seeker success team by submitting a contact web form: https://www.indeed.com/support/contact. Your feedback is valuable, and it will certainly be passed along.

      What a callosal waste of money and time. I tried the "Premium" service for $80 per day to post my job and invite candidates and zero candidates apply. In fact, as I reviewed the candidates to invite, they started to repeat the same candidates I had previously passed on earlier in my scrolling of the candidate's list (essentially they recycled the old candidates and relisted them later in the list of possible candidates). There were candidates they said were a match to my job description that had not updated their resumes (or worked) for several years. Are these people even still looking for jobs or are their resumes just active on Indeed with no real intent of looking for a job? I had an Indeed representative (Ashley) reach out to me to try to upsell me on services. When I called her back asking for her help, she never returned my call. Poor Customer service. I am not sure of a better place to post jobs, but Indeed is not helpful. And, it's overpriced with poor results.

      We are Class A Jobs 411 (MMB Transportation LLC), a woman-owned, service-disabled veteran small business that has operated as a contingency CDL driver recruiting firm for 12+ years. We use Indeed’s paid and free postings. In 2025 our account was suddenly “tagged/flagged” without a clear reason. On Sept 20, 2025, support agent “Quennie Cindy P.” said she would explain why, but provided no policy citation, evidence, or remediation steps. I was told to download the chat transcript (“Request Chat Transcript”), which I did. We believe our account is being restricted because we are a contingency recruiting business, while large direct-hire employers receive preferential treatment. This effectively discriminates against a certified woman-owned, service-disabled veteran small business and harms our ability to compete after more than a decade of compliant use and paid spend.

      Harm: Postings are limited or suppressed, candidate flow is reduced, and contracts are jeopardized. We maintain compliant practices (truthful ads, clear identity, direct apply links, prompt follow-up, removal upon fill). We have not received any written policy violation, strike notice, or remediation checklist tied to a specific posting—only generic references to a “tag,” with no fix path. Uneven enforcement against contingency recruiters, while larger brands continue uninterrupted, is anti-competitive and discriminatory in effect.

      Requested resolution: (1) A written explanation for the tag, citing the exact policy and evidence; (2) Immediate review and removal of improper flags, or a concrete remediation plan with timelines; (3) Written assurance that contingency firms—and certified woman-owned, service-disabled veteran small businesses—are held to the same standards as large direct-hire employers; (4) Restoration of normal posting and visibility. I will provide the Sept 20, 2025 chat transcript upon request.

      Indeed is great for job searching. The issue is location! The jobs are not correct for location ever! Kitchener is NOT Stratford, NOT Brandt, NOT Guelph!!! Anything outside of Kitchener Waterloo bussing and ion reach is NOT KITCHENER WATERLOO. MOST PEOPLE NEED LOCAL, NOT OTHER CITIES ADVERTISED AS LOCAL! If so they will search that city! If I put KW, I don't want Toronto, Brandt, Guelph, etc... I want KW!

      I had a very positive search for job, multiple times, on Indeed. I found My current position on Indeed, and I had another position lined up, that I also found on Indeed. I usually apply directly on the company’s website. I will definitely use Indeed when I’m looking for a job.

      Posted a job, like many times in the past, but this time I wanted to use the On the Road, not at the same office everyday and in Florida. Post was "Flagged". NO reason given, NO notification in email and NO message in Indeed. This was flagged for days without me knowing. Two chat sessions (one cancelled after 2 minutes of inactivity) and a phone call and the job was never Open, after being told the Trust and Security dept was notified. I had to change the job and it got posted. Today I learned I cannot see our job, unless I'm logged in to Indeed to search for jobs. Told over the phone, the Company page was not "Claimed". I claimed the page. It takes 24-48 hours for approval. Indeed is slow to act, they don't follow up with phone calls, they don't explain the process and they don't provide information that could have saved me days and lots of frustration. I don't feel I got value after paying for a sponsored job.
