Employees are given lots of autonomy to make decisions. Extremely fast-paced environment, encourage people to model and take risks and make mistakes..

Leadership-less

Sales (Current Employee) - Chicago, IL - 9 January 2023

Groupon has lost its way and lacks strong leadership and strategic vision required to be successful. If the company is serious about turning itself around, it has to look inward first.

Stressful

Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - 8 December 2022

Was too fast paced for me though my coworkers were nice. I lost my voice from talking on the phone all day and the pay wasn't that good. The call room is also loud

Fun place to work

Booking Account Specialist (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - 16 November 2022

I enjoyed working for the company, the unlimited PTO was a huge bonus. But there was a lot of restructuring during my time there which didn’t make for a stable/secure job.

Used to be fun! I wouldn't suggest it nowadays..

Social Media Moderator (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - 18 October 2022

It was a fun place to work with a great culture. For a while, the fun made up for the lateral moves, mediocre pay and iffy leadership. Mass layoffs led to steep decline in morale, I had to jump ship. It was great while it lasted.

Mental health is not important

Content (Former Employee) - Polonia, MB - 18 October 2022

Company which wants more and more without take in consideration how the employee feels. High target. Bad communication.

Best place ever to work

Sales Assistant (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 23 September 2022

Groupon was always a place that attracted high calibre candidates. Whilst the strategy was right for the long term the execution was not always perfect but had a great sense of where the business was heading.

Good for beginners

WFM Analyst (Former Employee) - Chennai, Tamil Nadu - 23 September 2022

Groupon is the best place to start your career as freshers as they give good package for freshers. You can learn and grow your skills here but comparing the market they pay less for the experience candidates.

Pros

Medical Insurance, Internal Job Opportunity

Cons

Less Package

Fun and great place to work

Senior Customer Services Representative (Former Employee) - Liverpool street - 24 February 2022

Loved working here. Was working on night shift customer service team. I learnt so much about customer service and how to deal with issues swiftly. Colleauges were great and so was Management.

Productive but not fun!

Material Handler 1 (Former Employee) - Hebron, KY - 16 February 2022

I worked here for almost 4 years! The people were more like a family. But the job was not worth the pay. Not paid enough for the work I did. The turnover rate was horrible. They wanted people to always take on job roles but not pay them enough. I was in receiving. So I unloaded trucks and sorted everything. I also received it all in and helped put away. They expect way to much from people. Then just turn around and treat them like they don't matter. They did try to give back during the holidays with prizes and give aways. But there were requirements to follow. The only pro for real, was the people. Everything else was not even worth it. Benefits were ok. But not the greatest. And they only paid 2 times a month. 15th and the 30th. Which is crazy if you ask me. They would over load everyone with work to do, but then turn around and all the Temps home if there was not enough work.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about your Groupon experience and for the time you spent as a part of #TeamGroupon. Our Kentucky Warehouse team played such an important part in Groupon's story. Although the warehouse is no longer a Groupon location, we take a lot of what we learned from those employees and apply it to how we model our culture today. We're focused on building a fun and flexible workplace for employees, and our compensation team regularly reviews what we offer in terms of total rewards to ensure it's competitive within local market ranges. That said, we know there's always room for improvement, so we appreciate the insight you've shared with us here. Thanks again for everything you did to contribute to Groupon's success!

Great mind, loved the culture and off course our products and customers, b2b and b2c.

Head of Operations (Former Employee) - Cook County, IL - 8 February 2022

Enjoyed and learned so much, being able to grow into multiple roles and explore out of my comfort zone. Thanks to fantastic work attitude of my teams and collaborative relationship with my peers and leaders I can look back and be proud, contributed to many enterprise's transformational milestones.

Work life balance

Senior Buyer (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - 30 January 2022

It was just ok, management is all over the place. Company lacked any direction and constantly felt like we were changing priorities every other month.

Great culture in the beginning.

Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - 3 January 2022

Company culture was great in the beginning. Then employees and management were replaced by outsourced workers from other countries that never step foot in the offices.
