The company I work for entered into a 12-month agreement with Dice for our recruiting needs. The contract stipulated that it was a "One-Time" payment and that it was for 12 months, but buried in the fine print was language stating that the contract would auto-renew if we didn't inform them of our wish to cancel 90 days prior to the contract expiring, so we missed it. The only "notification" of our pending deadline we received prior to the date was on slide 19 of a PowerPoint presentation that was a full 6 months before the expiration (and 3 months before the deadline), which we missed while our recruiter was away. They then sent us a 30-day "renewal reminder," and since we had found 0 suitable candidates in that time period informed them of our wish to cancel. We had also significantly rolled back our recruiting at that time period, so paying anyone for a year of recruiting services didn't make sense for us. They informed us that cancelling would be impossible per the contract, and we have been going back and forth with them ever since. They refuse to release us and their collections agency threatened to ruin our credit among other things. This is a highly predatory type of contract that locks you into an unsuccessful service, and they seem to do their best to be as opaque as possible about the terms up front. I advise all businesses to never sign anything with Dice.

I am a recruiter. This site is a waste of time. In addition their contract stipulates automatic renewal unless they are advised before 90 days of current contract expiration. This is not the industry standard! 30 days is more like it. Then they offer you a “ buyout” of your contract if you don’t notify them before 90 days, or they will automatically renew your contract at full price! 90 days is a very long lead time especially for a small business. And they threaten to sue right away. Recruiters, stay away from this site. Candidates, too! They cull info from other websites and the internet to make it seem as though they have more candidates than they actually have. So, you end up chasing people who don’t even know their info has been posted as part of Dice’s database. Waste of time. Thieves.

Concur with the reviews claiming poor communication and service. I encountered a bug wherein I could not favorite a job without constantly getting prompted to sign back in (and upon signing back in, still couldn't save the job). I reached out to support, got one message back telling me to clear my cache or try a different browser. I tried every browser in existence and cleared my cache and history to the point when I bought the PC. Even tried two different PCs with two different OSs. Clearly the problem was on their end. I relayed all this back to them....nothing. I followed up, still nothing. I logged a whole new issue report...and nothing, but now I can mysteriously save jobs again. Great. Glad my issue is resolved, but ACKNOWLEDGE ME man. In this age of social media, it's acceptable to ignore people. That crap has to stop.

Horrible website recruiters can't speak clear English. All they want is your personal info birth and SS don't use this website

i think this is one of the waste site i ever seen, i have seen lot of people facing the issues and raised a request/ dropped a mail but there is no response.

i create job alert and dont want jobs requiring a PHD what i get is jobs requiring a PHD!!!

Terrible company. They farm out your resume and personal information to a ton of random recruiting companies that have only contacted me for temporary or contract positions, not full-time roles as I've set in my preference. Even after I've deleted my account and information, I am still getting contacted nonstop for completely irrelevant jobs. Their service, website, algorithm, network and overall company is terrible! I cannot seem to get rid of all the spam phone calls, text messages, emails for completely irrelevant job openings even long after I've deleted my account off the Dice.com website! Do NOT sign up for this service. Stick to reputable companies and recruiting agencies, or you will regret signing up for and sharing your information on Dice. They do not respect your privacy and you will forever receive spam calls for jobs you did not even want in the first place. Extremely frustrated and disappointed in this company. They should not be operating.

Unable to search easily for remote positions. It requires you use your zip code and then displays jobs in that area, which is not helpful at all to someone working remotely. They do have a check box for "work at home" but you don't see it until you've performed your search. This is 2020 - every IT job site should offer an easy to find/use Remote Only option.
