Pros

The only positive thing I can think of is that the company went through a rebrand while I was working there, and it seemed like a positive step for the company as a whole.

Cons

As a Recruiter for the company, I was extremely disappointed by the lack of transparency, the false sense of urgency, and the lies that the teams told to candidates as they went through their interview process. I felt guilty hiring people at this company, knowing that I was on my way out the door. The culture was very "frat bro", and I do not recommend working at Angi or Handy.

We appreciate your time in leaving a review. We value transparency and do not lie to candidates throughout any of our hiring processes. Our goal is for every Angi team member to be successful here which starts with matching the right person to the right role. The rebrand to Angi was an exciting step for our organization and one that has propelled us forward to achieve our mission of becoming the home for everything home.

Pros

The culture is generally positive, and leadership is accessible. Management is willing to meet with employees and listen to concerns. There are talented people throughout the organization, and the work can be rewarding if you enjoy sales and helping businesses grow.

Cons

The biggest challenge is the compensation structure. The company promotes uncapped commissions, but many employees feel earnings are effectively controlled through continually increasing quotas and changing performance targets. Revenue and nominal goals are adjusted so frequently that it can feel like the finish line is always moving. What's particularly frustrating is that the majority of the sales team often struggles to reach 100% of quota, yet goals continue to rise. This creates the perception that compensation expense is being managed through quota increases rather than by allowing top performers to fully benefit from the revenue they generate. Over time, this can discourage high achievers. Employees who consistently perform well are often expected to deliver significantly more results each year just to maintain the same level of compensation. When exceptional performance is met with ever-increasing targets instead of proportionally increasing rewards, motivation suffers.
