It was a fun ride while it lasted...
Pros
At the core, Angie's List has a huge heart. They give a lot more to the community than what is perceived in the media. Employees have opportunities to participate in philanthropy, professional networking, and healthy living. If you want to learn how to sell, the training is terrific.
Cons
What was once a creative, entrepreneurial working environment, the sales department slowly diminished into a toxic, cliquish office space. Promoting to management was the least bit appealing. I recall a sales director once answering a question with "I don't know, I failed in business school". This kind leadership is not one to look up to. After three pleasant years, a six-figure income, and many sales contracts later, the company restructured the much needed department. Unfortunately, the skills that Angie's List once taught me, did not justify a 40k salary to make 80 phone calls/day to service providers who notoriously dislike Angie's List.
