What is the hiring process like at Ticketmaster?

Good company Great global policies Work life balance

Horrible and toxic work environment within HR team Management not supportive for new joiners, no onboarding plan, high attrition within HR Hire and Fire policy adopted by management, Management easily takes out frustration on team members who speak truth. No 360 degree feedback for managers. Focus is only on pleasing management by back bitting, lot of insecurity within HR team. Use of abusive language and screaming by management for team members

Work from home is available — though calling it a "perk" would be generous.

The compensation philosophy here is demoralizing. No bonuses, a measly 2% annual increment that doesn't even keep up with inflation, and zero extra pay for on-call/rota support — you're just expected to be available for free. The tech stack is outdated and there's little interest from leadership in modernizing it. They call themselves a product-based company, but it feels product-based in name only — the engineering culture says otherwise. Work-life balance is nonexistent. Weekend work isn't a rare ask — it's a direct expectation. WFH has become a tool for treating people like they're on a digital leash. Step away from your machine for five minutes and questions start flying. Lunch breaks beyond 45 minutes are frowned upon. This isn't flexibility, it's surveillance. The daily standup is a joke. What should be a 15-minute scrum routinely stretches to 60–90 minutes with no agenda discipline. That's hours of productivity lost every week. Management is a serious problem. Nepotism is visible — managers hiring their own relatives into the team. Performance reviews feel like a formality; whatever your manager writes goes through without any real scrutiny or calibration. And the way they talk to you — "resource," not person. You're a headcount on a spreadsheet, not a human being.
