Pros

Angi is a company full of empowerment and resources for improvement for their sales staff. An incredibly supporting environment and I liked everyone I worked with. The company has a great culture and leadership is very empowering in a genuine way, and is always available as a resource. I would recommend this company to someone who has proven sales success and is looking for a career company.

Cons

It's a very hard product to sell. You're selling to blue-collar workers who don't want to talk on the phone period, let alone to a tele-marketer. The Angi name has been dragged through the mud in the last few years with the FCC order - the order was settled but that doesn't mean anything to people who heard about it. For the aforementioned reasons, you should be an experienced sales person coming into this role, which is not something they explicitly advertise in job postings. On top of all of this it's an established product which means the more bad reviews, the more people have heard the negative aspects. Angi pulls leads from 3rd parties, which leads to a lot of less-than-promising (aka bogus) leads being sold at premium prices. You will regularly be fielding a litany of anecdotal experiences and perspectives, from hard-willed people. Additionally, the commission payout structure incentivizes long term employment and being an instant success at the company. Not necessarily a bad thing by any means, but something to consider. **If you are not selling you will be working a very taxing job for very little money.**

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your experience working with us. We're thrilled to hear that you found Angi to be a company that empowers and supports its sales staff and that you appreciated the positive working environment as well as the people you worked with. We also appreciate your candid insights into the challenges of selling our product. We realize that sales can be challenging, but we don’t believe that you must be an experienced salesperson to be successful. We have people from all different backgrounds who have had long, successful careers at Angi. Of course, having sales experience never hurts! Regarding our commission structure, we do recognize and reward those who meet certain sales thresholds which happens overtime. However, we ensure that even new sales representatives can successfully earn commissions right away. Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review. We’re so happy that you found our management team to be great. We wish you all the best!

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.
