"Greenhouse required a migration to the 250-employee tier based on headcount. After discussions with our finance and leadership team, it became clear there was negative sentiment toward Greenhouse due to dissatisfaction with their service and pricing structure, prompting consideration of alternative solutions. We leveraged this sentiment to negotiate a substantial rate reduction for the 250-employee tier."Company with 201-1000 employeesThis month
"Our sentiment toward Greenhouse is somewhat negative because most of our employees will never use the tool, yet we are being charged based on total employee count. We would prefer a pricing structure that reflects the number of active users who actually utilize the tool, as this would be more equitable and aligned with its value to our organization."Company with 201-1000 employeesThis month
"Greenhouse initially proposed a 40% rate increase with the migration to the next employee headcount tier. To mitigate the rate and uplift, they suggested a two-year agreement.

"For deals less than $50K annually, Greenhouse will fight tooth and nail against the uplift called out in the terms of service (8% is the standard). They also claim a multi year is the only way to achieve a flat pricing outcome, which is untrue. I would push 2-3 times and escalate to your leaders if they continue to hold firm. Eventually they will cave on a flat renewal to save the business "Company with 201-1000 employeesThis year

"Greenhouse historically has not agreed to tiers within contracts which means that if the organization has grown past their agreed upon usage at time of renewal (ie you renew with 700 users, the usage tier is 700-750 and at renewal you are at 754) any agreed upon increase percentages are null and void (ie you agreed to an 8% increase at time of renewal, if you are over the previous usage tier this no longer is applicable.

This makes contracts for high growth organizations especially susceptible to unplanned renewal costs that are often significantly out of the planned budget. "Company with 201-1000 employeesA while ago

Since we also had experienced service issues with Greenhouse which we discussed during the negotiation, along with other integrations needing to be added to Greenhouse, which effectively is costing more money to run the platform.
