Pros

Work from home. Great benefits working under IAC.

Cons

New Leadership team, CEO/CTO have absolutely no clue what they are doing. They are destroying the key brands that built this business. Neither have ever done this work for a profitable company so they are completely out of their element. Layoffs without any input from the affected people's managers. Lies about why they are laying people off. If you are not from Handy and in New York, you are not included in any decisions. I would not put these guys in charge of a lemonade stand let alone a company turning over 1.6 billion annually. No clue what IAC was thinking with this leadership change.

We are sorry to hear you felt that recent changes within our organization were not for the better. We disagree and are excited about the new additions to our leadership team, including a number of folks who bring deep experience and leadership. Over the last few months, we launched a new brand, Angi and new mission and values to align our teams. Building a new brand and rebuilding culture can be complicated but, this new brand, mission and values give us the foundation to take Angi into the future. We appreciate your feedback and encourage you to reach out to me directly - Laura Kato, SVP, HR

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.
