Pros

It’s a good taking off point for someone’s career. The benefits are good. It’s a casual office environment. It can take a while to settle in but it improves over time. Depending who you work with, you’re able to learn a lot from your peers. There is room to grow to a certain extent.

Cons

Yardi sent out anonymous surveys asking for feedback whether it’s positive or negative and then they didn’t bother addressing anything that could be improved on during the annual company wide meeting. It was also a little odd that the CEO specifically asked employees to write reviews for Glassdoor which makes Yardi’s rating seem kind of inflated. The salaries are average or a little below average for similar jobs in the same industry. There is a strong 8 to 5 mentality in which the majority of employees are not given resources such as laptops and are not allowed to work remotely. There is very little reimbursement provided for tuition and job related certifications which is unfortunate for those who want to expand their careers. There aren’t many perks for such a large and growing company. Don’t expect there to be many “fun” company/team building activities.

We appreciate your taking the time to write this review. Generally we do not want to defend ourselves in these responses, but in this case we believe there is some information that you may not have heard correctly (the entire presentation is available on Employee Central). In response to your comments about the company survey, at the annual meeting the CEO specifically said that there were areas where we had improved and areas where we had fallen since the last survey two years ago. He also pointed out the areas where we were rated lower, and added that the management team would address those areas where our ratings were not as high as they should be. Glassdoor recently rated Yardi Systems as one of the country’s “BEST PLACES to WORK.” You write that the CEO asked employees to write reviews for Glassdoor. During the company meeting the CEO said “I am so proud and relieved that all of you rated the company the way you did …. As it turns out our internal surveys generally speaking match the Glassdoor survey - the good and the bad - and in places where we see things that you have pointed out ... we take corrective actions.” At no point did he ask employees to write reviews. And finally, we are very proud of the perks and benefits we provide, including paying 100% of health care premiums for our employees, a FSA plan, 401k, profit sharing, vacation condos, tuition reimbursement, paid parental leave, great discounts to a variety of places both near and far, and more! We also have a Fun Committee with representatives from each office that work hard to provide a variety of events throughout the year. Since you did not list your location, we are unable to reach out to the representative in your office, but we suggest that you speak to the General Manager in your local office to further discuss your thoughts about having more fun at work.

Pros

If I were asked pros of this company in 2020 I would fill this entire space. Since COVID the company culture completely changed toward the negative. They have good affordable health and dental insurance. You get to leave 2 hours early on the day before a holiday. They will provide lunch in office once a week. You get to work a hybrid WFH schedule. They invest in your 401k whether you contribute or not.

Cons

Their pay is below market. I was a TAM and could have made $20k more per year with another company but wanted to stay with yardi because they weren’t publicly traded and were more stable. The culture became more stressful and toxic after covid. Yardi began a partnership with wework (see Hulu documentary) and then wework went belly up which yardi had to bail them out of. As a result yardi spent millions of dollars. To offset this terrible decision, Yardi started quietly firing people within the company. Basically, they were eliminating “overhead” without calling it layoffs because the word layoff scares clients and they’ll start looking for another software to use.

We truly care about your feedback and appreciate hearing from you though some of your experiences and observations are vastly different from what we hear from our talented Technical Account Managers worldwide. Regarding the 2022 WeWork partnership, Our CEO has a proven track record for making strong business decisions that result in continued growth and success for the company, and we were thrilled to debut a new space management solution through our ‘WeWork Workplace’ partnership which solves for a dynamic, constantly evolving future of work. We are proud to share that we have not participated in any company layoffs and have added serval thousand employees to the company in the past several years as we continue to grow. We take pride in our caring, respectful, and transparent culture and genuinely encourage anyone who feels negatively impacted by something to schedule time with the VP of Human Resources to further discuss. While we are sorry you weren’t a happier employee, we genuinely wish you all the best going forward.
