RealPage San Francisco: Stifling Start-up Culture & Morale Since 2011
Pros
-Located in the SOMA district -Close to BART, MUNI, SF Giants Stadium -Contemporary open office space w/ Rooftop access (Comcast & PAC 12 Sports Building) -Many open positions due to HIGH attrition
Cons
-The environment stifles ingenuity and innovation -Salaries are not competitive in any market at any skill level -Benefits are based on the cost of living in Texas (Our free snack station was removed because it does not exist in TEXAS) -There is no CLEAR training program or career advancement road mapping -High attrition -Management openly discuss the personal affairs of subordinates -HR was brought in from “Bain Capital”…You know, Mitt’s company -Displaced management from acquisitions somehow end up leading new teams and verticals into the ground -Centralized sales teams are incentivized in absence of selling your products -Consumer products are developed independent of user research -Projects are routinely scraped after months of development -Morale is dehydrated. The running joke among employees new and tenured is “Take this job and shove it”. -Growth is inflated through acquisitions
