Pros

Amazing comp and benefits. Flexible work life balance. New hires bringing about exciting ideas/changes in culture. Exciting time to join with a ton of interesting problems to solve.

Cons

Existing codebases are poorly maintained with little to no testing. Your bonus will be locked behind a "goal" to which you may or may not be able to contribute. Company defaults to status quo - disallows ICs to experiments without data to backup doing the experiment. Engineers have been brow beaten by their product peers to the point that they've given up voicing their ideas. Business/product organization is inflexible to change and experimentation. Business/product values "the user" but continues to prioritize revenue and new functionality. Product org struggles to function beyond more than a mere feature factory; spends little to no time understanding the users wants/needs/problems.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a thoughtful review. We believe in creating a culture where team members can bring their best selves to work, which includes providing meaningful benefits and attracting (and retaining) individuals who are passionate about driving our mission forward. It's great to see this resonates with you and we appreciate your additional feedback related to our technology practices. One of our core values is "data drives opinion" and we rely on this to ensure that the decisions we make are made for the right reasons and that they set us up for long term success. This includes, but is not limited to, segmented user testing, A/B testing, and focus group feedback on our customer journey, all of which help to inform new features so we can be better today and perfect tomorrow. We recognize experimentation is important so we can pivot quickly and tailor our platform and services to the needs of our customers. This is why all product engineering teams are encouraged not just to be direction takers, but rather to align on the problems we are solving, partner with product managers to define MVPs and how we'll measure success, and deliver code with a "leave it better" mentality that supports comprehensive test coverage on new work as well as incremental improvements to our legacy code base. This is also why we include automated testing in both our job descriptions and career rubric for software engineers. Feedback is always welcome and we encourage team members who feel their ideas are stifled to reach out to their manager or myself directly. We believe in "disagreeing as individuals and delivering as a team" as we set our sights on continuing to be a leader in the home services industry. Our goals are shared across the business and like many organizations, annual bonuses are driven by both individual and organizational performance. This shared responsibility ensures alignment on both projects and priorities and we are excited at the momentum we have driven this year across many key initiatives. We appreciate you sharing your Angi journey and hope you experience the positive impacts of our practices over the coming months! - Amit Gulati, SVP Engineering

Pros

- Unlimited PTO - Work life balance used to be great before the new CEO came

Cons

- Randomly laying off talented employees (I am still working but so many of my talented colleagues were let go with a two minutes long explanation). Even the Dev managers did not know that their group members were laid off by the higher up. First set of lay offs went on Product people and without explanation and the second set of lay offs went on developers and no prior notice. - Poor severance. One week salary for the every six months of work. People who got laid off before two years, lost the employer contribution of 401k. - When the Higher ups were asked why this big lay offs, they said it was due to the path those devs were taking. All on a sudden all the devs were required a full-stack knowledge to succeed in the company. But their managers were giving them thumbs up on their path on the Role Success Docs. So, not only people who got laid off but also their managers had zero idea about the lay offs. - Random deadlines without any specific product direction which leads to burnout on employees. - cliche but worth mentioning that the salary is below market standard. - You are required to have full-stack knowledge of Backend even if you are an iOS dev and hired for specific role.

We are sorry to hear your discontent about recent changes made within the technical arm of our business. While change can be hard at first, we are excited about the new leaders we have added to our team and the knowledge and experience they bring to help us on our mission to be the home for all things home. We understand software engineering is a continuum; present is built on the past and the future will be built on the present. As we set up Angi to massively disrupt the home services market one of the major investment areas is to gear up our technical stack and practices to support Angi's new mission. We have embarked on a variety of new efforts to align both our teams and our culture through the development of values and coming together to tackle exciting challenges such as the re-brand to Angi. We appreciate your feedback and encourage you to reach out to our CTO, Kulesh, directly should you have any additional concerns that he can directly address. – Laura Kato, SVP People
