Pros

I love working here because they are so nice, helpful, willing to teach you to be amazing at your job, it's an environment that rewards you for doing well and guides you when you're struggling. I really enjoy all of my coworkers, because the interview process was so long and thorough, all of us have similar ideas about success and what drives us. It's a competitive work environment, but most of the time I'm competing with my own personal goals. Need more motivation in your wallet? The commission is amazing, there are contest all the time and so many opportunities to make money, win cool things, or go on trips. This company does not skimp on employee satisfaction. It's just great to finally work at a place that respects you, and makes you feel worth it, emotionally and financially. Before I started working at Houzz I saw all of these reviews and though, "There's no way these are all real." And then I started working here and realized, oh man, it really is a dream job. Work hard and get rewarded, isn't that the way it should be?

Cons

Early mornings, the most productive hours to get in are between 6-7am. Which means 5am wake up calls, but you build your own schedule so it's up to you how early you want to come in.

Pros

I enjoy being an Account Executive at Houzz for many reasons. One is that you truly control your income. No bar is too high...in fact, the more your produce, the more support you get to produce more. The company is interested in helping our pros get more business. I love the fact that I'm selling and helping out seriously talented professionals throughout the county is extremely rewarding. I felt like I was set up for success from the beginning. Even when I have moments of doubt there is a network of support within my team and throughout the entire office. That support comes in the form of positive works, gift card contests, and sometimes even tasty breakfast & lunch!

Cons

It's hard to get noticed as an individual and the promotion path is pretty fuzzy. It seems a little like a who you know type of path.

Pros

They truly care about your growth and invest in you as a person. They want you to grow long term with the company. Houzz treats their employees very well with lunches and fun social events but it's more than that. It's the culture and friendly atmosphere that makes coming into work every day enjoyable. With a great product to stand behind, work at Houzz has been the best experience.

Cons

It is a start up so there are a lot of changes and occasional lack of communication
