Pros

Freshly out of university, Houzz AU has made it an easy transition from student life to working life. The company allows you to grow and absorb so much information. I have learnt so much in such a small amount of time, if there was anything I did not know, the team is helping me out in no time. It is a great collaborative environment and everyone is learning from each other. Working for people that are so passionate about the product is incredible. The working environment is fun, energetic and productive making coming to work everyday extremely enjoyable. Working for Houzz AU has been the best career move I have taken. They say " Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." Trust me great company, great people and lots of great potential.

Cons

Cant think of anything! However a discount for people that drive in to work would be amazing!

Pros

Coworkers are super cool and great to work with. Role is remote.

Cons

Fake, cheesy culture and micromanagement with monotonous internal meetings. AE company meetings feel like a time waste with redundant material coverage and group activity work. Managers will message you if you go 10-15 minutes without making a call. It feels like you're working in a demoralizing call center. Tech stack and CRM are disconnected, outdated, and constantly glitch, preventing productivity and conversation tracking. Reporting is also archaic and not customizable. You're working ~9 hour days with below average pay, and will be encouraged to work Saturdays and be a "weekend warrior!” You are expected to make 600+ cold calls weekly and average 2 hours of talk time daily. If you have PTO planned, managers will ask that you raise your call and talk time volume to compensate for your time off. The calls you're making are from a list of old leads that are either no longer in business, have a terrible past experience with Houzz (please do your research on Houzz - they have ripped off many businesses and provide subpar customer service), rarely show up for your meetings, or have zero budget and "owe money to the IRS." Outreach doesn't feel strategic. From those leads, you're expected to hold ~3 demos daily. This is not a sustainable place for a career, and frankly a waste of your time.
