Pros

It was a great company when I started a few years ago, casual culture (jeans/ flannel to work, happy hours, free food and drinks), hard working and really smart people. Really great benefits and stock options from IAC and the opportunity to work from home

Cons

there's no transparency from upper management/ c-suite. Lower level employees often feel like cogs in a wheel and there's really no oppotunities for career growth. They say they want to be on the same level as Netflix and Amazon but there's no investment in the people outside of random mass firings and then moving all of the former Handy employees to the top. As a female, it took me constantly asking for a raise and a law in CO requiring females be paid equal to their male counterparts to finally earn what I was worth. The company has surveys that talk about employee satisfaction but they never really take any action on it and always wonder why people are leaving of their own accord but never ask unhappy employees what the company can do to make them stay. What made the company great when I started has been taken (aka no more "fun Fridays" with food and drinks, no more Fedex Fridays where people got to work on something that interested them). We went from PTO that was take what you need to everything being tracked, making a lot of people feel guilty for taking vacations or days off.

We are embarking on a big mission at Angi, to become the home for everything home, and to get there transforming the organization to support our mission.

Pros

The culture is generally positive, and leadership is accessible. Management is willing to meet with employees and listen to concerns. There are talented people throughout the organization, and the work can be rewarding if you enjoy sales and helping businesses grow.

Cons

The biggest challenge is the compensation structure. The company promotes uncapped commissions, but many employees feel earnings are effectively controlled through continually increasing quotas and changing performance targets. Revenue and nominal goals are adjusted so frequently that it can feel like the finish line is always moving. What's particularly frustrating is that the majority of the sales team often struggles to reach 100% of quota, yet goals continue to rise. This creates the perception that compensation expense is being managed through quota increases rather than by allowing top performers to fully benefit from the revenue they generate. Over time, this can discourage high achievers. Employees who consistently perform well are often expected to deliver significantly more results each year just to maintain the same level of compensation. When exceptional performance is met with ever-increasing targets instead of proportionally increasing rewards, motivation suffers.
