SuperMedia Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"I have not been there in a couple of years, when I was there it was stressful since layoffs were happening regularly. It has gone bankrupt since then and is now under the name of DexMedia. I do know now what it is like with the new changes."

"I've worked for Supermedia for a year and a half now. I enjoy working with small and medium size businesses in helping them attain their company goals. I also enjoy being in control of my earnings and the ever changing technology in the digital market. There's always something new and interesting to learn and share with business owners."

"This is my second contract with Supermedia. I love my team. I have learned about responsive website design from a crew of dedicated professionals. The company has given me rewards for my hard work in turning around some difficult customers. Leaving my friends for a better position would be difficult."

"It's a decent place to work. Nice people to work with."

"I have worked for this company since 1997. It has always been a good place to work and gives us great work life balance. recently due to the changes in print and digital advertising industry my company has been on a downturn and looks like they are way behind digital curve and cannot catch up. We went down from almost 600 sales force in Texas to almost 50 now. It is a bad sign when you start closing down sales offices."

"I like my supervisor but it's time for me to move up on my position and that has not happened yet. I work hard day in and day out."

"This company had a very bad reputation as far as employees are concerned. They were known for unfair practices in the past. But as I just said it was past. So when I was offered an opportunity to get back into advertising I was excited. After 2 months into it, a class of 21 people , myself included learned that a merger was coming our way but to not worry. We were hired and there to stay. Not so much. The biggest issue with the company also was still trying to hang onto print, in a Digital Mkt."

"Very good training and excellent learning experience. I left SuperMedia with the highest retention rate in the company, look forward to taking my skills to selling a product/service I believe in."

"I've worked at Supermedia since August 2008 and have endured many changes, including 3 CEO's, 2 bankruptcies, a spiraling downward trend in client confidence and 2 major negative pay plan adjustments. Despite this, I have been a steady performer, using my skills to service my clients well. The company has some very good product offerings, but is lacking in back end support and is extremely disorganized."

"As a top sales producer, I felt that my compensation should have been much better. And there appeared to be much turmoil and churning of jobs during the past few years, even though it fortunately didn't impact me."

"While it was imperative for SM to adjust its strategy to its highly competitive environment, Senior Leadership stuck their heads in the sand, and waited for yet another merger (with Dex One) and the bonuses they would get for making the merger happen as revenues, clients and morale fell drastically. Not a single leader cares about the employees."

"I worked for Supermedia for 3 years and really enjoyed my time there. The company as whole faces enormous challenges from shrinking market share, to being bought by Dex One Media."

"its a company that is transitioning from yellow pages print to on line"
