      Good and Bad

      Onboarding specialist
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      the people that work here are great. They hire young, excited people who are enthusiastic about what they do. They have a kitchen stocked with snacks, and dogs are welcome. All the 'fringe' benefits you expect from a tech company

      Cons

      The salary is poor, and there is no room for advancement (unless you are a software engineer, who are paid well and afforded opportunities for growth). All managers are hired from outside the company, and the majority do not come from tech, or the relevant department, so employees end up training their bosses, which creates an understandable amount of resentment. They also have no compunction with terminating employees when it is a good 'business decision', regardless of performance or fit. There are certainly some growing pains as they try to find a balance between being a good place to be all day, and making money. They have not found this balance yet.

      I love to hear that the people who work here are great....and I completely agree! It sounds like you are frustrated in your current position and feel you've been overlooked for other career opportunities. The onboarding specialist role is a great entry level position and I encourage you to take charge of your own career here at AppFolio - reach out to your manager and identify the skills you've acquired and grown during your time as an onboarding specialist. We have a number of open positions in the company, review them and translate your skills and accomplishments to find and go after your next career opportunity. Feel free to ask our HR team for additional help and guidance -- the most successful AppFolians own and drive their own career destiny here at AppFolio and I encourage you to take advantage of the resources that exist to make it happen for you.

      Pros

      The company culture is great! The people you work with make it fun to come into work everyday. Good management, good snacks, good times.

      Cons

      Nothing big. Sometimes the free drinks in the fridge aren't cold when you first get in but other than that, everything is awesome.

      Thank you for taking the time to write such a nice review. And I agree, it's so frustrating when the Perrier is not ice cold :)! I'll share your feedback with the SDR Management team - they are really investing lots of time and energy to provide a super balanced set of skills and will love to hear that you're appreciating the encouragement.

      Thanks for taking the time to write a review. We are growing quickly and always looking to find ways to better prepare people as they progress to new opportunities in AppFolio -- it's always such a tough balance between the step up into a new role and being fully ready to do it! It's a great reminder that we can always continue to improve our training and prep work as we promote team members.
