Pros

The product is making improvements and concerns from our customers are being addressed.

Cons

It is very obvious that the company is struggling financially. Our benefits were reduced by 50% and are now required to work on Black Friday. The CEO is micromanaging and doesn't seem to be in touch with basic business "best practices".

Listingbook Response

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you feel we’re making improvements to our product. This is a main point of focus for us and we’re working hard to get it right. As far as a reduction in benefits, I would encourage you to speak with Human Resources about our recent changes – to our knowledge, the changes were an enhancement rather than a reduction. Listingbook offers 9 paid holidays per year plus vacation and discretionary days. Black Friday was substituted for a Floating Holiday to give employees flexibility to use it at the time most appropriate to them and their family. The health insurance market is changing and we have made every effort to minimize the burden passed along to employees. In most cases the increase for coverage did not increase more than 20% despite the premiums going up 80% as a whole. Dental insurance was actually halved. Listingbook is not without it’s share of challenges and your feedback will help us continue to improve.

Pros

Well paid and good benefits for the size of the company. Downtown location is rundown and not especially nice but I do enjoy the hustle and bustle of working downtown. Original concept was excellent but it has morphed somewhat into a different product.

Cons

Recent revamping of the product had caused problems. The clients needs were not considered for the most part. The president "moved on" and the CEO took over the day to day management of the company. His technology expertise is limited (his other business is car washes). His original role was that of primary and major investor. If the CEO asks your opinion try to determine what he already thinks. If you get it wrong you may find yourself without a job in a few weeks. For a company this small internal communication is very poor. Much information is found out through rumor and gossip. New products are rolled out with no information provided to staff. We find out from our clients making us look somewhat less than professional.
