Blackline Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Most recently wrapped a TA consulting contract with BlackLine where I managed up to 22 active requisitions across America, Canada and the APEC region successfully."

"Good company to work for .."

"I have worked for the company for a few years and saw tremendous growth. It will be a long time before the company is mature enough to be an enterprise."

"After going through an extensive interview process to truly vet out the culture and mutual fit with BlackLine, I was saddened to learn the true nature of the state. Being in a senior leadership role, I was privy to communication from many levels of the company including the executive team. From the Director level on up, the company is dripping with political manipulation, individual agenda, and bureaucracy. The culture is extremely fragile, I had to deal with more employee complaints and HR issues in my time at BlackLine than the rest of my career combined. The rate of attrition is through the roof, and no wonder with emails and shouting matches including completely unprofessional language and public threats of termination being no rare occurrence from the CEO and her son, the head of Product (who reports directly to her – talk about nepotism). Similar communications for other C-suite executives include emails such as a reply to an entire team of just “WTF?!”. Very immature leadership scrambling to try and keep the company moving forward. Everyone tiptoes around the CEO, doing their best to manipulate her for their cause or pin her against someone else, then talk very poorly about her behind her back literally scheming to get the board to remove her as CEO and her son out of his role (for which he is not experienced enough to perform). Son came from Sales where the CRO didn’t want him in his org anymore. The CEO passed up many great options for a Head of Product. Then when the pipeline was dry and the CRO was pushing out her son, she convinced the board that the company did actually need a Head of Product and moved her son into the role. No experience, no training, nowhere near comparable to the candidates that were passed up."
