Ghost Job?
Ghost jobs are jobs that have either been open for a very long time or that have been taken down and re-posted multiple times with little change. Companies do this when they don't really intend to fill a role but want to appear to be healthy, growing, and hiring to outside parties. Note that I can't say with 100% confidence that the roles listed here are ghost jobs, but they're pretty sus.

The rest of the job description seems fine. And while the pay is good for this role, it isn't for frontline roles, which pisses me off, so into Tread Carefully it goes.

Yet again, what would otherwise be a solid Eh, It's Probably Fine is getting thrown into Tread Carefully instead because there is no comp given. I guess I have job security after all?

The new JD is much shorter (I've pasted it below, above the old one), but it has many of the same problems as the original. It should still be a more senior title, it still doesn't list any actual benefits, and there's still no salary transparency. In BINGO it remains!

Lead Technical Support Engineer
OpenClosed
Honestly, this job description is pretty forgettable. It's not terrible, but it's not good either; candidates get very little information about the structure of the team they'd be leading, and the only hint at culture we get is a single bullet about the office being pet-friendly.

"High stakes" in a job like this means the product doesn't work, or only works enough to be dangerous. You're there as a human shield between the customer and the product, and I promise it isn't even as fun as it sounds.

Blah blah woof woof capitalism, but a company that wants to use you to build private wealth for others but won't deign to tell you what the compensation package is is especially hypocritical and I just cannot (Farther for me, but not for thee?).

And by "ability to work under pressure" they mean okay with slowly being crushed under the weight of expectations, inexperience, and your 300-500 accounts until you're a tiny, person-shaped material denser than osmium.

I can tell you that I think they're asking too much from a Manager-level role, and I think the evolution in their Support approach is a bad signal for the function and the company's future. Tread Carefully.

I waffled on where this one should go (BINGO or Seriously, Maybe Don't). There's no Careers page, just a perfunctory EO statement at the bottom of their Jobs page along with a frankly alarming Values statement.
