Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Job seekers are at the heart of everything we do at Indeed, and their safety and trust is a top priority. This is in no way affiliated with Indeed.
Job seekers should be cautious of unsolicited phone calls or messages via text, messaging apps, social media, or email—especially those from unofficial domains or offering salaries that may sound too good to be true. Indeed will never ask job seekers for sensitive information or payment to apply for jobs.

Can't leave a bad honest review
Some companies you can't leave a bad review no matter how you word it. Waitrose is an example of this. I had a awful experience with Waitrose but no matter how I word it it's never allowed. You can't say if a manger is awful, can't say if the environment is depressing, can't say if you were bullied. I worked nights at Waitrose were the manger didn't allow anyone to talk, if your caught talking your separated. Staff constantly leave. But you can't say any of this all your allowed to say on Indeed is what you did in your day basically. So nights at Waitrose all I can say that indeed will allow is went in filled shelves, threw rubbish away went home. That helps nobody.

Hi Byron, all company page reviews on Indeed are subject to a moderation process. Our goal is to make sure 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://support.indeed.com/hc/en-us/articles/360046789111-Company-Review-Policies. We advise you to look at our guidelines and revise your review and repost it.

This site must use the other AI (Artificial Ignorance)
This site must use AI, as in Artificial Ignorance. I read some of the reviews, and I am not alone.
In my Notifications section, it says there's a great match for you. Then right below it, there's a notification that I have applied for the position (uuugh).
There's no sense in blocking the jobs because it lacks the ability to do so. The same jobs, over and over. What a waste of my time.

Hi Ron, to explain, Indeed’s search engine is built to surface the most relevant roles, but broad keyword matching or limited context can occasionally pull in unrelated results. We’re continually refining this so the right jobs show up first. To get the most relevant results, enter keywords between quotation marks related to the job you want (for example: "Social Media Manager").
We are always working to update and improve our products and features. We will share your feedback with our Product team. Thank you.
Harassing phone calls
I would NEVER, use Indeed, due to the spam phone calls I keep receiving and blocking. As a company this is poor practice and I would NEVER use them to represent my company or to recruit staff. UP YOUR GAME. Stop harassing people.

Hi Ray, Indeed is a self-service platform, which means account holders are responsible for creating, managing, and monitoring their sponsored jobs and associated spending. This includes keeping track of active sponsorships and making any needed changes to pause or close jobs in order to avoid additional charges.
We would also like to clarify that daily budgets on Indeed are not a strict per-day cap. Spending can vary from day to day depending on job seeker traffic and performance opportunities. Rather, daily budgets are averaged over a 30-day period, which means charges on a given day may exceed the selected daily amount while remaining aligned with the platform’s budget framework over time.

Hi there, we understand how frustrating and discouraging it can be to submit applications and not receive updates from employers, especially when you're putting significant time and effort into your job search.
At Indeed, our goal is to help connect job seekers with employment opportunities. While we provide the platform and tools that facilitate those connections, employers are responsible for reviewing applications, managing candidates, and making hiring decisions through their hiring processes. In some cases, employers may receive a high volume of applications or may not consistently update candidate statuses, which can result in applicants not receiving a response.
Although we can confirm that applications submitted through Indeed are delivered to employers according to their chosen application method, we are unable to influence employer hiring decisions or guarantee a response to every application.
To support your job search, we encourage you to explore our Career Guide for practical advice, resume tips, interview guidance, and job search strategies:

Ghosting, Scams, Disappointment and Heartbreak
Over the last three months, I have been searching for graphic design jobs, or any similar job titles that fit my resume and current experience on the platform. During that span of time, there have been a few employers who would get back to me and give a normal response that they would not be moving forward in the interview process. However, most of them would never respond after my resume was submitted and would ghost me for months on end. I still have about ten applications that I am waiting for a response on, with many others removed from my saved jobs after they kept me waiting for over two months. While ghosting is not inherently the fault of Indeed, scams, on the other hand, are something that is breaking my trust in the platform. Over a week ago, I received a response from someone who was interested in commissioning me for brand design, claiming to be from the company "JDB Group." I honestly thought this was going to be my big break and an opportunity to add another strong design to my portfolio. However, as I dug through the email response, I came to realize that it was most likely a cashier's check scam, because the message stated that the only way they were going to pay me was by cashier's check. They also asked for personal information so that their "financial officials" could send the payment to me. I have already reported this to Indeed and am waiting to see if these messages were actually a scam or not. Either way, finding a good job on this platform has been like finding a needle in a haystack. I would also advise Indeed to find ways to improve its security and prevent scam and fraudulent job postings and opportunities from accessing the platform. Jobs Need People. But until then, good luck finding anything on Indeed.

Many jobs are closed once clicked through to the company page; a large number of scam jobs posted that send scam emails from Gmail and such. Indeed does very little to validate companies before allowing them to post jobs, so scammers easily get on the site and post fake jobs trying to get you to give your SSI, DOB and other info so they scam you. Lots of jobs are not real either but simply posted by companies to make it look good that they are hiring for their share holders. Overall, Indeed is over scammed, poor moderation, and enables the use of AI bots to fill out applications to flood the applicant pools.

Indeed Deleted My Honest Reviews—Twice—and Lost My Trust
I’m giving Indeed one star because it removed my honest, firsthand review of Spectrum—not once, but twice. During my employment, I experienced what I believe was favoritism in how managers distributed property assignments. Certain employees received better opportunities, while others were given assignments that made success far more difficult and, in my experience, set them up to fail. I wrote only about what I personally witnessed, yet Indeed deleted both reviews. A platform that claims to value employee feedback should allow respectful, factual criticism—even when it is negative. That makes Indeed undeserving of users’ trust and, in my opinion, anything more than one star on Trustpilot.
MY RESPONSE:
Hello Indeed Support,
Thank you for your response. My concern is that Indeed removed my review of Spectrum twice without explaining why. I received this response only after posting a one-star review of Indeed on Trustpilot.
As a former Spectrum employee, I described what I personally experienced and believed was favoritism in how properties were assigned to sales representatives’ portfolios. In my view, some employees received better opportunities while some new employees received assignments that set them up to fail. At least four other employees share those concerns.
I understand that reviews require moderation. However, your statement that you cannot discuss individual reviews leaves me unable to understand or address the specific issue. That is difficult to reconcile with your stated commitment to transparency.
Please escalate my concern to the appropriate team and identify which wording violated which guideline. I would also appreciate knowing whether my review can be reconsidered or revised while preserving an accurate account of my experience.
