Pros

I started on the sales and marketing side. It was a great opportunity, fun, and challenging. I wanted to take what I learned and apply that to another area within AppFolio and I chose to join services. I was able to internally move positions and now I get to apply my best self every day to a job that I love. I am looking forward to our growing company and culture. This is an excellent place to work for the first time out of college graduates and for technology industry veterans. - Great work life balance - Awesome company culture - AppFolio helps and encourages employees to give back to their communities - Plenty of growth opportunities and experiences to learn from to help you apply yourself - I feel valued and that my opinion matters

Cons

- The company is growing fast and it is difficult to keep up with the changes and new personnel. Communication and transparency can be an issue as teams and departments change roles. - Not always clear what opportunities exist for cross-department collaboration.

Pros

Growing company that I've yet to see a ceiling. Management is approachable and genuinely cares about your professional growth, which you do own, as well as your personal well being. Coworkers often become friends and they are highly motivated and excited to come into the office. The snacks and lunches are good too!

Cons

Compensation is a bit low compared to other, similar, companies in the immediate area but I have noticed this is being improved upon. Other than that, I cannot think of anything that comes to mind.
