Pros

Pros: -Great food, fridge was always stocked -Great people to work with; very positive and encouraging culture -Loved management and the open culture The internship program was well structured, and I enjoyed how interns were put onto real teams right after the onboarding process (there was a 2 week session where we learned how to build things on rails). Overall, I would recommend this company to everybody; great place to grow and great place to be.

Cons

Cons: -Santa Barbara -> Personally wasn't a fan of the working location. -Some complaints about lack of work. In general, I always had something to do, but I did hear from other interns that there just were times that they would sit around. -Diversity of engineers

Great pay, advancement opportunities, awesome people, management really grooms you for success ! The environment fosters great teamwork. Appfolio never has a shortage of fun team outings and peer bonding activities. I couldn't think of a better place to work. Truly a great company. Career advancement opportunities are plenty and the ability to lateral or vertical advance is great!

Pros

Appfolio has a great culture and everyone there is pleasant to work with. The company has grown immensely since I began in 2011, which is almost always a good sign. There is plenty of opportunity for upward movement within the company. Lateral movement to other positions (within reason) was also very common. Compensation is competitive for the area.

Cons

Bonus programs would have been nice for additional compensation.
