Pros

There are numerous items I can list here on why AppFolio is a great place to work, but I will focus on a couple I find to be the most rewarding and impactful. Having to like where you work is extremely important since this is where you spend a majority of your week. Not only do we have a great space to work in, but the people who work here as well make the job. AppFolio does a wonderful job at hiring people that are alike, are motivated people, and most importantly, are friendly people. The job details only take you so far, but it is the energy, atmosphere, and culture that set it apart from other companies in the area. The second biggest piece of it, for me, is the opportunities available. AppFolio and its upper management are not ones to hold their employees back from moving between departments and growing within the company. They notice the hard work, work ethic, and motivation of their staff and want to help them build their careers. Factors like these are what has helped me grow throughout the years both professionally and within my role at the company. As I said, there are many reasons, but these are just a couple on why I would, and do, recommend AppFolio!

Cons

Nothing that would cause me to not recommend anyone to apply.

Pros

Frequent team outings and social events that help build relationships across the team. Generally a friendly, social environment!

Cons

The property management team is highly competitive when it comes to promotions, and I’ve seen BDRs remain in the same seat for years or eventually leave, as internal advancement opportunities can be limited. However, for top performers, there is promising upside, and you get to work with some of the best leaders in the organization. On the investment management team, leadership quality is more uneven, and there appears to be a lack of management experience, which has created gaps in coaching, accountability, and overall team development. As a result, performance outcomes have lagged, with the majority of BDRs and AEs struggling to consistently hit target. Team turnover has also been notably high, and leadership engagement only increased after a large portion of the team had already decided to leave, which by that point felt too late to rebuild morale or trust.
