  • JobGet Buys Monster? Inside the CareerBuilder Fire Sale
    Jun 27 2025
    In another lively episode of The Chad and Cheese Podcast, hosts Joel Cheesman, Chad Sowash, and J.T. O’Donnell blend humor with industry insights. The show tackles a grim industry shake-up: CareerBuilder and Monster’s job board business is being sold to JobGet amid Chapter 11 bankruptcy. JobGet’s gobbling distressed assets like Snagajob, but Chad questions the strategy, as these “misfit toys” boost revenue without growth. Unsecured creditors, like Jobverse ($2.7M) and TextKernel ($2.2M), are owed $25.5M and may see little, while Apollo’s insulated. J.T. urges job boards to innovate or perish. Dice’s layoffs (100+ in sales and engineering) reflect a revenue plunge (Q4 2024 down 14%, Q1 2025 down 18%). Chad blames Dice’s failure to evolve, stuck in an innovator’s dilemma like Monster. Automation shines (kinda): Tesla’s Austin robotaxi launch ($4.20/ride) had hiccups, while Walmart’s robots unload trucks at 580 boxes/hour, easing grueling jobs. Yet, displaced workers face risks, and new remote roles could fuel infinite workday burnout. A YouTuber’s In-N-Out lawsuit underscores brand risks, emphasizing HR’s need to adapt with quality-focused, streamlined talent management in a turbulent market.
