Pros

I enjoyed the opportunity to work directly with customers and help them get started with Housecall Pro. The role helped me build strong skills in communication, problem-solving, product education, and customer success. I also appreciated working with teammates who cared about helping customers and supporting one another.

Cons

There were recurring issues with commissions being paid correctly, which created frustration and made it difficult to feel confident in the compensation structure. For a role with performance-based pay, commission tracking and payouts need to be accurate, transparent, and timely. There were also processes in place that often felt more focused on activity than actual impact. Some workflows did not seem to drive clear value for customers or create additional revenue for the company, which made the work feel inefficient at times. Priorities and expectations could shift, and it sometimes felt like the team was being asked to follow processes without enough evidence that they were improving outcomes.

The customer work you described, building real skills while helping teams get started with the product, is exactly what this role is built around. Commission accuracy and transparency are standards we take seriously. Frontline roles here are metrics-driven by design, and we're focused on ensuring those metrics connect directly to customer outcomes. -Housecall Pro People Team

Pros

Great people below executive level that want to do their best work. Full remote work. Working with customers that actually make a difference in the world.

Cons

Hustle culture without the hustle pay. Way below market salary but executives expect top company output. Fear based. Executives pivot every week, if not multiple times a day and it creates immense thrash. CTO is completely disconnected from day to day work, talks in abstract most of the time, and when they do mention something about actual work, it's completely disconnected from the reality of people doing the work. Top talent has been steadily leaving the company. Process is whatever the executives decide that week. The current product is mediocre at best and most attempts from talented people to make it better either are ignored or when agreed upon, the rug gets pulled out from underneath a couple months later when the executives get cold feet. If you want to work at a company and make a difference, this is not the place to do it. Promotions and pay increases are non-existent unless you work 14+ hour days, amplify whatever the current executive flavor of the week is, and put your head down and just execute on someone else's poorly planned ideas. Everyone is pretty miserable currently and most people are only still there because the current job market is not great.
