Pros

Broad product suite for an industry where technology can really provide value. Aggressive acquirer of companies in vertical real estate management space.

Cons

Company size has grown past founding CEO's ability to manage in this modern age. Winn's direct reports are not willing to tell him the truth re: performance of products & need for investment; or too scared that their jobs are on the line, if they are honest about the state of products. No coordinated, comprehensive plan to deal with "technical debt" of acquired products. Processes and metrics are given lip service, but company is not investing in process definition and rank & file staffers to drive performance through metrics. They tend to hire and value real estate industry people over technologists. Winn wants to personally win from a higher stock price instead of having customers win through better products; he doesn't realize that the stock price is a result of providing true value to the customers.

Thank you for your post. I look for the wisdom in every post and I agree with several of your comments but maybe in a different light. For starters, there is no one who reports to Steve Winn who is afraid to speak up with a point of view, the four corners of discussion are put on the table on a regular basis. We have great products, that we can make better. We are moving to what I believe is a more operational company, as each division is now being looked at through a series of "alpha metrics" You are right in the fact that we can improve our products technically and that is the mantra, operationally excellence, brings about happy customers, happy customers buy more products. We are not perfect in this space, but the company is evolving. You do get the realities of business. Give the customers value and fix what you have. Your point is well taken, and I am encouraged that our leaders are being measured on just that. Again, thank you for your post. Kurt Twining

Pros

Great way to gain experience in the SaaS/Real Estate/Tech industries as a stepping stone. Lots of opporunity to grow and transition to different roles or departments. Outstanding people to work with and phenomenal niche industry.

Cons

Territories are feast or famine. Quotas and compensation plans inflated. Big learning curve. Limited support resources. Must promote yourself within or you will go unrecognized.

Thank you for your post and I am glad that you like the people you work with. I printed your post and shared it with the sales leadership team. I can tell you that on Tuesday of this week, the HR team met with several sales leaders to go over recruiting, compensation ranges, compensation designs that may address some of the concerns that you are pointing out. Some of the compensation considerations are for 2016. As far as territories and resources, please reach out to your manager and lets have an open discussion and get the opportunities on the table. A positive note is that AR3 sales folks and above participate in stock equity, which is not always the case in many sales organizations. Your advice is spot on and thanks again for your thoughts.

Pros

Had potential to be a great company. Smart people to work with in its prime.

Cons

Horrible upper management and executive team. No vision for any future. Will completely implode from the inside out.
