Phenomenal Company!

Pros

Alarm.com is growing quickly, but it still feels like a big family! They are doing a great job of keeping the "small company feel" as they grow. They take care of their employees in almost every way and it truly feels like they care. The offices in both VA and MN are extremely nice and offer a lot of great perks... such as free Keurig coffee! The people are the best part of the company - young, fun and caring. The executives are caring people as well and truly take into consideration what others think and how others will be affected by their decisions.

Cons

Alarm.com considers their self a technology company, but when it comes to pay they seem to want to consider their self a security company. Their pay trails other technology companies and may be lower than what you'd expect.

Pros

Good bosses except the head of sales can be a massive jerk sometimes. He's only polite to the cute girls but the average sales employee thinks he hates you. The product sells itself and our clients love us. Fairly flexible. Very innovative company.

Cons

Pretty terrible pay, especially when compared to others in the industry. Once you're hired don't expect any kind of annual pay increase. If you get anything it won't be regular or significant. While 75% of the company is under age 30, all of the upper management is 45-50+. If you didn't go to an Ivy League school good luck getting promoted very far within the company. They value your elitist college attendance way too much. Again, the pay sucks. People only stay because it's fun and innovative. Benefits are OK. Health is good but they have no free food or drinks in the office and no free gym membership like most other tech companies have these days.

Pros

Great company that allows all of their employees to be innovative. They care about what each employee thinks about the company and features/products. Culture is by far the best I've ever experienced.

Cons

Pay could be more competitive.
