Pros

Close to restaurants that allow many lunchtime options for employees. Benefits are mediocre at best. Basically they look at similar industries and come up with an average cost/benefit for the employee but I thought it to be subpar during my tenure. Base salary offered is generally in line with market average for the Carrollton location.

Cons

Corruption in this company is rampant. Most executives at the SVP level and higher are cronies of the CEO and manage in whatever direction the wind is blowing in order to keep their job. I was at the VP level along with many others (similar to a bank, most people are VP’s) where majority of my peers would not hold the same job title in other companies, especially the Fortune 500. I found that job titles were only to placate egos but backed up by no real authority other than what you might expect to see at a “Manager” level with other employers. HR is probably the worst excuse for a Human Capital entity within a company that I have ever experienced. Very shady leadership in this department and it all rolls downhill. Not very polished and somewhat condescending when attempting to correspond with in order to resolve internal operational issues that have arisen within my department. I recommend you avoid them wherever possible. A 401k is offered but employer contribution is low and only deposited into your account once per-year with Board of Directors approval. As attrition is high, probability of an actual payout for a lot of employees will be low. In lieu of your base salary, at the Director level and higher, they will tell you about a Management Incentive Plan (MIP) i.e. Bonus that will be paid out to you each year. I never received a bonus in the two years I worked for RealPage. The United Way campaign parking space lottery is another farce. Parking in general is ridiculous. Very limited spaces but as long as the SVP’s and higher receive their front door space there will be no concern for anyone else. Hand over a lot of money and hope you receive something decent is how the game is played for everyone else and this way we can be listed as a top United Way donor company. Come into the organization with a lot of bright ideas about enhancements with technology but since capital expenditure request are approved few and far between, don’t expect your dreams to come to fruition. Most intelligent people who join this organization at the management level and higher end up getting ran off after realizing they are not one of the cronies and therefore won’t completely “fit into the culture”. Nothing will change at this place until it is either bought out and/or the current CEO is forced out.

Pros

-Good People -Good Pay -New Workspaces -Development/training (if you ask for it) -Constantly Evolving -Positive Improvements -Some Newer Technology -Entrepreneurial Spirit -Fast Paced Overall I have really enjoyed working here the past 2.5 years, I know that each team and department are different but I love the people and I feel like my managers have really invested in me and want me to be successful. I enjoy that there are annual reviews and merit increases if you deserve them. There is an attitude of sink or swim here. If you want to come in and do the same thing every day and not be expected to grow or be challenged then yeah you will not make it. The company is growing, and quickly, that presents unique challenges but also a great opportunity as well. Frankly I am glad there are some initiatives to consolidate the remote offices to TX, there was disconnect between the teams and the cultural differences (i.e. coming in at 10:30 am vs. 8:30 am) made it difficult to collaborate. I also heard they offered severance packages and are relocating some people which is more than fair in such a competitive market for tech talent. There is definitely room for improvement, but I feel that management is moving in the right direction.

Cons

-Benefits -401k match -Parking -Some Managers who won't leave or be fired There are some managers here who have been shifted around it seems when they aren't performing, it'd be better if they would just trim the fat and hire someone better. Parking is difficult and it would be great if everyone was in one building. Biggest complaint is that "merit increases" don't feel like that big of an increase.
