Pros

Openness in culture, nice working space. Can choose to work on different technologies or streams of development. Management listens.

Cons

Unrealistic timelines and knee jerk product development. Lots of lip service to empower end user but ultimately company goals driven purely by sales and traffic.

Pros

Initially a talented, honest, high integrity and team oriented Company

Cons

Middle Mgt was nowhere close to the honesty and high integrity of early Edmunds days; Personal vendettas from Middle Mgt were used to manipulate Employees up to and including forcing them out; some Accounting "adjustments" were made by Middle Mgt to make things look how they wanted them to look - without the knowledge of Upper or Executive Mgt

Pros

The comp plan is decent but it changes all the time (3 times in 2013).

Cons

This is a California based company that wants to be like Google but they act like McDonalds. The brand is tired and stale and there are no plans to do any marketing. There is a giant disconnect from the home office and the sales force. You can not expect huge jumps in product placement if you raise the price 500%. When that doesn't work you "force" bundle the product; but what you don't understand is, nobody knows about the product! Edmunds is barely delivering on their existing products but there is an expectation to force the adoption of all the new products! The expectations for results is immediate and constant. The goals for revenue is daunting and the financial pressure for retention is severe. Fear and threats are common management tools, this comes from the top and filtered down to the "middle" managers. Turnover is extremely high at Edmunds. For every 1 person they convince to stay 3 people leave. Be careful if you are thinking about working here. Read all the reviews on Glassdoor, research the average tenure of sales people form Edmunds on LinkedIn. The sales side is completely different from the software side; a different world. It's strange to see a company where 1 year is considered "a long time".
