Senior SDR's Take on a Great Company

Sales development representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Company culture is a 10/10. Leadership intent on making it a great place to work. Great people and great benefits.

Cons

Long hours and high intensity in the sales department. Not for the faint hearted, reserved for gritty, but positive people.

AppFolio Response

Our SDR team is so important to our growth and if you've made it to a Sr. role, it means you're showing up every day with the right attitude and work ethic. I'm so glad to hear that you rate our culture a 10/10 -- thank you for helping to make AppFolio great. I also love how you describe that our sales department is reserved for the 'gritty but positive' people. Working hard towards a goal and staying positive makes work and life that much more enjoyable, so thank you for appreciating and contributing to this environment.

Business Outlook

Pros

Outstanding office culture Charismatic CEO Close-knit teams Collaboration Smart leadership in each department Simplicity at the core of the business Challenging work Ability to innovate within your role/department Well designed processes Genuine customer focus Work-life balance Open communication about company goals, initiatives, performance, and future Innovative software that truly changes the lives of its users

Cons

Not being able to roll out all the features our clients request. AppFolio has a very active user base and they come up with a ton of excellent ideas. Creating a robust solution happens quickly but still does not seem to fully sate our client's hunger for product enhancements.
