Pros

Offices in great cities. Company's future looks good, potential to be GREAT business-wise. Very high skill and personality bar for existing employees and new hires. Fun and surprisingly challenging engineering problems to solve. Hard work. Lots of ways to have fun and blow off steam with coworkers though. No micromanagement in engineering. Customer focused, not process/red tape focused. Can go on and on and on.

Cons

I can no longer work anywhere else for fear that most other companies will really suck in comparison to AppFolio. LOL

Pros

I like the people I work with. Good work/life balance. People are mostly nice. They've been able to hire smart and good natured people. They want to continue hiring smart and good natured people. Snacks. Occasional breakfast and lunch. Occasional team outings. Occasional fun events. PTO is alright. Just started 401k matching. Good development processes. High quality employees, making great impact to the company. If you're just starting your career, it's a great place. If you're just leaving a completely crappy employer, this is a great place.

Cons

Environment is for extroverts, introverts beware. They are hiring fast and cramming people in. Zero personal space. Lot's of noise. Office temperature is Cold then Hot. Not very conducive for creative people or focused time. Long waits for the disgusting bathroom are common. They hire a lot of people fresh out of college, so if you have any experience be prepared to be pushed to mentor. They should provide some incentive for it. Couple times a year, employees are pressured into delivering a work related project in 24 hrs, in exchange for food, beer and shirts/sweaters. The pay and benefits are mediocre, compared to the quality, quantity, responsibility and impact of work. Raises are on the weak side. No profit sharing at this time. Number of Options granted at a time is now low and doesn't off set the low end of pay. Seems like the company is deliberately leveraging work relationships and atmosphere in order to pay on the lower end.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience at AppFolio. We definitely hear you on the space - we're growing quickly and working hard to make enough room for everyone! The good news is we just moved our yoga /exercise room and now have more room to spread out while we continue to work on our longer term space plans. We do value the atmosphere of mentoring and innovation with our 24- hour hack days -- if you have ideas to improve how we run these programs please share them with your manager so we can continue to make them even better.
