Pros
We are customer centric. We build great software and genuinely care about the relationships we build with our users.
Executives hold regular company meetings to keep all of us in the know about what we are doing as a company.
Many opportunities to collaborate across departments. This is great for networking, building relationship and professional skills, and gives opportunity to make an impact on a large scale.
Once you have put in the time and effort there is a ton of opportunity. We have a ton of great people. Hard work and commitment are rewarded.
I have been at AppFolio for just over 6 years. My career has grown, my salary has grown, and I have grown (my second job out of college).
I have been treated well by everyone from our CEO, to VP's, directors, and managers. I genuinely feel like I can approach anyone in the company. My opinions and those of my colleagues are valued.
The company looks for feedback from our employees, regularly, and spends a great deal of effort building on the positive and addressing any concerns.
On a personal level, Appfolio leadership has proven to me that they want to see me succeed. The support is tremendous. It speaks volumes that I have received such a great level of support at a growing and successful company.
Cons
AppFolio pays fairly but Santa Barbara is an expensive city to live in (arguably worth it). If you work in the Dallas office the cost of living is a nonfactor.
