I honestly love working for this company.

I cannot say more positive things about my time at GoDaddy so far. I am recognized for what I do well and am rewarded with opportunities to continue growing in my career here. I have found a fantastic mentor/sponsor and love the flexible work culture.

GoDaddy is serious about gender equity and promoting an inclusive work environment. They were one of the first companies to share salary data broken out by gender. They have an active partnership with the Clayman Institute for Gender Studies at Stanford and they are piloting new techniques to remove unconscious bias from hiring and promotion processes. Flexible work environment. A great place to work!

Godaddy has good intentions but falls flat in regards to women in tech.

It all looks fantastic on paper. The actual practices are extremely different.

GoDaddy was a company that offered great culture and coworkers, but coupled that with getting locked into certain positions within the company. Management was a bit of a boys' club, with very little flex to let the average woman from inside of the company advance further. Most managers came from an external source. Time off was easy to get, allowing more time for family. Overall, the good and bad balanced out to a neutral experience in almost four years. The Christmas parties had to be the best part of working here.

GoDaddy provides so many opportunities for all it's employees. Furthermore, they take bias issues very seriously. So much so that they brought in Stanford's Clayman Institute for Gender Research to assess the situation and offer up solutions. I got to participate in some of the sessions, which was an eye opener for me.

In fairness this comes from a corporate position, not one of the call floor positions - however, I have found the organization to be extremely fair to women. GoDaddy has been public in regards to their pay discrepancy - https://www.wired.com/2015/10/godaddy-reveals-gender-pay-gaps-at-grace-hopper-celebration/ and what they are doing to solve unconscious bias in promotion and hiring. They also have created an HR and benefits culture that are dedicated to supporting the LGBTQ population with transgender health benefits as well as domestic partnership and adoption benefits.

I have worked for GoDaddy for almost 7 years, and in its past, it was a "boys club" - however since Blake Irving and Auguste Goldman have taken the helm in regards to employee satisfaction the culture has shifted completely. Our engineering, UX, management, accounting, and other corporate positions have been keenly focused on diverse hiring.

This being said - the call center jobs are a much different role. It is a fiercely competitive sales job that does not easily lend itself to taking time off and does support a "get over it and buckle down" mentality. The benefits are different for these non-exempt employees as well and it takes some time to be able to take that 18-month maternity leave or to take substantial vacation time. You would be hard-pressed to find a better call center job, but do not mistake it for something it isn't (a high-level career with the perks that come with exempt status).

I can not recommend working at GoDaddy and frequently recommend people people not accept offer of employment there. On paper the company looks good: yes, there is a women in tech initiative and the benefits are fantastic. But the reality, especially following the company going public is a company that has a number of employee and culture issues. It still feels like a boys club and those in management often don't have experience with the jobs of those they are managing. The company has been sued by the National Labor Board (a government agency) several times (it is public record -- do your due diligence and research) for violating employee rights as outlined in federal law. Several of my coworker's had to take medical leave due to the anxiety and extreme work stress. The corporate side is better; the customer care side of the company is horrible to employees. The company still lands on Best Place to work lists, but I have no idea how after seeing it from the inside.

GoDaddy has come a long way in recent years. The CEO, Blake Irving, is strongly passionate about diversity and Women in Tech. We have GoDaddy Women in Tech group which is focussed on gender diversity and inclusion throughout the company. I am never treated any different than my male co-workers. Work-life balance and benefit packages can't be beat. Live passionately! #itsgotime

The company is a mens club, it is almost impossible to have your voice heard and even more so if you are female. Having once applied for a leadership position after training the department on how to use our new software, twice, was denied promotion over a male coworker who couldn't follow simple steps to do his job. This was one of the many instances that if you weren't a male and weren't a "Friend" of a favorite of a manager you do not get promoted no matter how qualified you might be.

Discouraged from talking too much in front of other employees.

This company was pretty much a boy's club when I worked there. It wasn't uncommon to hear male co-workers making misogynistic jokes and other insensitive remarks--even among managers. There were few opportunities for advancement, and hard working employees would often go unrecognized and unrewarded. Employees who did get promoted were usually buddies with that manager and, again, part of the boy's club. The best you could hope for, if you were a really great employee, was a 3% raise come review time. My managers showed very little respect for my time, and my work life and family/home life was very unbalanced. Unfortunately, being willing to work long hours at the expense of your personal life was a part of the expectation. I was really dismayed when my physician essentially told me I should find another job, citing that she had several patients who also worked at the company who were suffering from anxiety, depression, high blood pressure, and other stress-related ailments. In fact, she offered on several occasions to write a letter for me to take to the company's HR department about it. I didn't take her up on the offer, but I did take her advice and get a new job. I'm in a MUCH more professional and respectful work environment now, and I'm loving it. I've known people that have had the complete opposite experience at GoDaddy and are very happy there--mainly developers or folks who worked for corporate GoDaddy. Unfortunately, in my experience, they did not make up the majority.

Management is not well trained. Now that the company is public they need to make sure they are functioning correctly to prevent lawsuits and harassment cases. Their management teams including supervisors abuse power and treat people very disrespectfully.

GoDaddy does a fantastic job making sure their employees are happy. I am happy to be working at a place where I can start my family and not have to worry about poor insurance, maternity leave, job flexibility. It's great to know I can move forward with those things with the help of my employer.

It's like working in a boys locker room. Don't expect to get a promotion unless you "date" someone in leadership.
