Frequently Asked Questions

Job Satisfaction

At Taboola, job satisfaction is built on a foundation of open communication and holistic support. We ensure every team member feels seen and heard through a structured feedback loop that includes biannual performance reviews and consistent one-on-one check-ins. These touchpoints are designed to be more than just evaluations; they are dedicated spaces for authentic recognition and mapping out clear pathways for professional growth and improvement.

To support our employees' well-being outside of their core responsibilities, we provide a comprehensive benefits package that includes competitive pay, premium medical coverage, and perks designed to reduce day-to-day stress. We take the guesswork out of meal planning by offering daily lunch credits or on-site catering, while our larger hubs provide daily breakfast spreads and fully stocked kitchens to keep teams energized throughout the day.

Our leadership and HR teams actively reinforce this culture by analyzing regular engagement survey feedback and partnering with regional leaders to address specific opportunity areas. This commitment to improvement is mirrored in our monthly global all-hands calls. Often led by our CEO, Adam, these sessions provide an unfiltered look at company financials, progress, and setbacks. During these calls, leadership answers anonymous questions from employees in real-time, ensuring that transparency remains a cornerstone of the Taboola experience.

I work with Account Managers and Sales teams in setting a common goal to provide accurate and valuable materials for our clients. As a LatinX "Taboolar" and ERG leadership committee member, I collaborate with our SOMOS Taboola community to analyze our company culture and provide education about the LatinX culture to the rest of the company.

Every employee brings a level of passion with them to work, a willingness to take on a certain level of risk. We talk weekly about our values, our failures, and victories, making it perfectly okay to fail, but to make those failures learning experiences so that we can continue to improve and focus on (ninja style) execution.

Working at Taboola has allowed me to continue expanding my career in a new country with people who have supported me from the start through now. I love that I get to interact with global clients, some from my home country, which allows me to travel back home from time to time and continue exercising my Portuguese, Spanish, and English skills.

I care deeply about learning and development, and up-leveling my team’s skills. My priority is to furiously help my team grow, hit our numbers, and challenge them to lean into their potential. We’re a team obsessed with the details, where operational rigor is a core part of our culture and empathy isn’t just a value posted on a website.
