Angi reviews

There aren't enough words to describe the inherent dysfunctional nature and twisted game of chess that Angie's List plays. Very common for them to hire herds of sales people, then perform mass lay offs or just entirely restructure sales departments. Extremely incompetent, directionless, and manipulative management; Angie's has severe management problems overall. Too hectic and chaotic, constantly changing of an environment to thrive which severely hinders employee morale and ability to do your job. Monthly quotas are often unrealistic and near impossible to achieve. Internal communication is abysmally poor company-wide; the left hand never knows what the right hand is doing. Most employees have one foot in the door and one foot out; never know if it's going to be your last day. Rampant micromanagement to the point where management will expect you to explain your previous days, by the very minute, seeing how much time you were not at your desk/not making enough calls. Company is a huge revolving door; turnover is very high. Your best is rarely good enough here; very cutthroat and throwing clients/employees under the bus to get a sale. Job strain seems to be most prevalent among employees in the sales organization. Stay away.

Anti-employee. People who sell well and use to make 170k a year are now making 40k. I'm not kidding; there is an IBJ article about it. It was basically a layoff disguised as a comp plan change, because everyone is leaving, but this way they don't have to pay severance like they did a few years ago with their last sales layoff. They keep "trying new things" and use it as a pretext to lowers the salaries of their sales force. Also, it's a lot harder to make the sale, goal are high and leads have been called constantly for years. Even well performing managers are fired because they are not liked by the right people
