Pros

was good commissions and some managers actually helped

Cons

Gosh where do I begin. This was an alright company once upon a time but totally different story now. As you will see in alot of these reviews there is a lot to be desired at this place now. HomeAdvisor is not the opportunity that you would think it is in alot of these fake reviews. See, every time someone goes on here to say the truth either HR or managers will beg for people to go make up good reviews to try and outweigh the true negative ones. It is an uphill battle to make a decent commission now. They recently changed the structure so they are really screwing the sales reps now. HA preys on 20 somethings that will say anything, make up lies to get a sale. They let the top sales reps lie and that is why they are the top sales reps. Every day sales loses tons of accounts because of this and all of the horrible reviews online. Every week I would lose at least 3 sales because the contractor would go and google us. Upper management is a joke. They expect a lot but do not provide the leads or the training for you to make the money they will tell you that you will make in your interview. They are losing a ton and I mean a ton of sales reps because of the commission change and all of the dealings ha does. I would say like a lot of these other reviews, do your research on ha before even applying. Youtube will give you a great idea on alot of the stuff going on there. If you kiss up and know a director or are a favorite you might have a chance. HA makes up fake leads to force feed the contractors. They will make up any reason as they go to not pay you what you are worth. There are class action lawsuits that hopefully will change a lot of the things they are doing. Can't believe what they get away with here. When HA bought Angies List they started selling the lead from Angies List to HA contractors to which I am assuming is probably not legit. But people are networking more and more these days. Sales are hard to come by at this place. I was also getting a lot of calls from my cancelled accounts asking why they were back in approved status receiving leads months later after they cancelled. Needless to say they were livid. Come to find out HA is in fact literally changing cancelled accounts back to approved without the contractors knowledge. Doesn't get much lower then that. I know that they will give sales reps a few good leads to go make up a bs good review on here without it even being true. I know this because they have asked me before. There are so many things going on here i would be surprised if they were around in a couple years.

Pros

1. The work is mostly interesting and challenging. 2. My team is pretty awesome. I'm very lucky and grateful to have ans engineering manager that really takes an interest in the well being of our team, but still strives to make a strong impact in the company. Everyone on my team is very supportive and willing to jump into solving a problem at a moments notice. There are no egos on my team. 3. The work from home policy is fantastic. I get to save commuting money, but I never feel "alone". We have daily standups and ad-hoc meetings, so we collaborate frequently. 4. There is some opportunity to learn new technology, though I would prefer if it were more often. 5. Management seems pretty transparent and honest with the company. I never feel like the C-suite is hiding anything. We have regular "all-hands" meetings where they discuss the state of the company, our success and failures, where we are going as a company and how to get there. I really like that communication and honesty. 6. Angi is regularly asking for feedback to improve itself. That is wonderful, and rare. I've worked at previous companies that never did anything like this, and it showed. I'm very glad that Angi is always striving to be a great place to work. 7. Angi is serious about clearly documenting our work. Whether that's holding RFC meetings, writing spike docs, or just building simple information docs in confluence. 8. Angi has onsites where employees can travel to meet in person. I've been to a couple and they are great. Would love for this to happen more often. I sometimes here they plan twice a year, but that doesn't always happen.

Cons

1. Angi has a lot of outdated code and systems, decades worth. This causes some serious issues with the products, and makes working with them significantly harder than it needs to be. Luckily, management is aware and has initiatives in place to migrate off these legacy systems. Just a matter of when. 2. Like many companies these days, Angi is trying to use AI more in daily work life. This has pros and cons. So far, I have not seen the benefit of it, hence I'm posting in the "cons" section. I think there is a general lack of knowledge on how to use it. 3. Lately there has been a push to "move faster", especially now with the adoption of AI tools. I have seen teams making some poor choices, resulting in costly mistakes. I would love to return (at least a little) to a slower, more thoughful approach. A "measure twice, cut once" approach, not "ship now, fix later".

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.
