Pros

The people at Edmunds are great. Every person I’ve worked with is smart, really cares and tries to improve what they can about the products. The office is insane ROWE and unlimited PTO are awesome

Cons

Edmunds is a sinking ship. They just laid off a large portion of the company which they notified us all during the holiday break and made us all wait over week to find out our fate, I assume so they could report the severance payments in the 2020 fiscal year to improve the bottom line for the banks and investors. There is no great way to lay off employees but I think making the entire company wait a week to find out if they had a job was a mistake. I have already heard many of the people retained whispering about taking interviews with other companies so there with be even more attrition and it will be extremely difficult to attract talented people to replace them. Credit where credit is due, they did give a generous severance from what I heard so they do care about the employees to some degree. I personally don’t think Edmunds will exist within the next 1-2 years. Best case it’s acquired and worst case it just closes up shop and sells off its assets to try to retain some wealth for the owners.

Pros

ROWE - when it was there.

Cons

Too many people in upper leadership who don't know what they're doing. They need people under them to do the work and they themselves don't know how to do it. Very top-heavy organization which makes people in the lower rungs feel under-valued. Also, there is really no future for the company. The market is saturated and Edmunds recently went through some massive layoffs because of declining business. All clear signs of a sinking ship...

Definitely not a great place to work

Pros

During the time I was working at Edmunds, they had some fun stuff around the office, free food, and some small perks here and there. At the time they also had pretty flexible hours and options to work from home. They were on the ROWE program. I heard instead of taking ROWE away, they recently rolled out ROWE 2.0, which from what I hear is about the same as no ROWE.

Cons

I was with Edmunds for a year and a half. During that time, I had 5 different managers, 2 different directors, and the commission structure changed 4 times. The company has no idea what they're doing and doesn't really care about their employees like they say they do. The annual "best place to work" survey is sent out by the company every year and they really push the employees to fill out positive surveys. That's the only reason why they get the "best place to work" award.
