Pros

There aren’t many pros, if any, anymore.

Cons

The company was great to work for previously. They recently have changed nearly all of the processes that were good and enjoyable before. We felt personally cared for, like our efforts and thoughts mattered, but it has now turned into a call center environment where you’re just a number. They have increased expectations and goals but then reduced the amount of time to reach/complete the goals. Many managers also could not care less about the associates on their team. Ignoring you when asking basic questions, lacking emotion or empathy. Overall a very discouraging and defeating experience as things began to change.

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. Providing our teammates with processes and standards to feel as though they have sufficient time to successfully take care of our customers is very important to us and we’re disappointed to hear that your experience does not reflect. We appreciate your feedback and have shared it with the appropriate leadership members who are continuously working with our current team members to better understand and make improvements toward these types of challenges.

Thanks for sharing your experience, and we're glad you enjoyed your role as a VRA. This team plays a crucial role in delivering for our owners and guests. We hold high expectations for all teams and wouldn't characterize VRA work as easy, but we do hope it's always manageable and allows Evolvers to thrive within and outside of Evolve.

Pros

Wonderful teammates that quickly become the only reason you stick with Evolve, outside of a steady paycheck.

Cons

Too many to list truly. This company is grasping at straws to survive in the short-term vacation rental industry; despite being manhandled at every turn by "partner" companies such as Airbnb. The company is literally always changing the goal post and then blaming the frontline team for not meeting their insane expectations. You will deal with multiple shift bids during the year, mainly to follow their random firing/layoffs that they wish to keep quiet. Constant system changes, staff changes and new responsibilities that are often rushed and not yet ready to be implemented, and an incredible lack of care from leadership. Nonexistent training for all of the new responsibilities you will take on after the layoff of an important team. By the time I left in April 2026, I had taken on partner services, guest support, owner support, listing optimization, booking management, damage claims for substantial incident reports and more. All of which you are expected to complete with back to back inbound calls to uphold the "customer-obsession" role. When they have decided to put you and at least 5 other teammates on the same chopping block, they will claim you were "avoiding work" or "on a call too long" to avoid any accountability for the drastic amount of issues at this company. I have had 7 MANAGERS within a 3.5 year span. If you absolutely have to work here, the only way to get through it is to completely disassociate and be sure to use your 10 EAP sessions...

We're glad the relationships you built with Evolvers were meaningful. Evolve is a high-performance, high-accountability environment, and we own that. When expectations aren't being met, we address it directly. If there are specific concerns about how your departure was handled, we want to hear them—please reach out to people@evolve.com.
