Pros

I love coming to work everyday and I think it starts with the phenomenal company culture that Houzz has been able to cultivate. At the end of the day, work is work, but I think what makes my job enjoyable is having great coworkers. Everyone I work with is insanely positive and they all want to see you succeed! In addition to working with great people, I love that there is also huge potential for growth in the company, great compensation, extremely fun social events, and delicious/healthy food.

Cons

There are too many things to love about working at Houzz...

Pros

Houzz is by far the most positive career experience I have ever had. Not only is it a fantastic opportunity, but the executive team creates such an incredible office/team culture that's high energy, positive and welcoming. Being a part of the Houzz team is like joining a sea of valedictorians. Everyone is a strong performer, driven and motivated. I can honestly say that I genuinely enjoy and LIKE everyone I work with. (That's hard to say when you're working with a team of 100+ employees.) Additionally, the company cultivates several opportunities for growth potential. Last, but not least, the Houzz platform and local advertising "product" is superior in the Home Design vertical, so it's incredibly exciting to represent.

Cons

Being a part of a fast-paced, high-tech/online marketing company that is still technically a start-up, you have to be prepared for multiple changes, and be flexible & prepared for them.

Pros

- Great atmosphere. Seriously, the best! The work environment at Houzz is beyond that of any company I have ever worked for. The people are friendly, supportive, and fun! The management team is helpful and approachable. Everyone wants you to succeed. Appreciation for employees is constantly shown. Think free lunches, sales contests including gift cards and AMAZING trips (Las Vegas, San Fran, Lake Tahoe). There are also tons of after work social events planned that allow you to really get to know your coworkers on a personal level. - Amazing compensation structure. We receive a base salary, plus commission, and an opportunity for monthly bonuses. You determine your own success here. Work hard and you will reap the benefits! - A product that is truly innovative. It is refreshing to sell something that ultimately sells itself. The professionals we speak to have nothing but amazing things to say about Houzz. We truly are revolutionizing the design/remodeling community. - Tons of opportunities for growth within the company. Since this is a start-up, Houzz is constantly innovating and growing very very quickly. As a result, many new positions arise. This could mean moving up to a management role or the chance to move laterally within the company as well.

Cons

- There are no real cons when working with Houzz! However, keep in mind this is a fast paced and quick growing company. If you are someone who doesn't like change, this may not be the place for you.
