Pros

Don't micromanage you for actual important day to day related work items

Cons

The level of micromanagement for time wasting items is on an uprecedented level I've never experienced, witnessed, or heard of except in case studies of how not to run a business or manage employees. Sometimes upper management asks the most unreasonable things and excepts them done anyway. Upper management treats the entire employee base the same. Nobody is reviewed individually when being asked to do such massive time wasting tasks. High performers are grouped with the rest of the company and everyone is expected to do the same thing even though everyone should be managed differently on an individual level. The laziest form of management is to uniformly ask an entire business sector to perform menial, time wasting busy work, even when high performers have never done this in the past. They aren't even interested in the opinion of high performers whatsoever. Proper managers don't ask the same thing of everyone, as they know that each individual has their own processes and ways of going about their job. Management talks a big talk but asks everyone to do the exact same thing because they don't want to take the time (they ask us to put into some of these ridiculous admin tasks) to see what works best for each invidivual...especially the more tenured employees.

We take employee concerns seriously and appreciate that you are troubled, however it is surprising that after working for the company for several years, you don’t feel more comfortable picking up the phone to speak with senior management to better understand their requests. All salespeople are asked to complete their territory plans so they can see the path to achieving their sales goals. Salespeople are also asked to research their accounts in CRM so we can market and sell to our clients and prospects appropriately. The salespeople that follow these proven steps are more successful at meeting and often exceeding annual sales goals and advancing in their careers. An anonymous posting on Glassdoor is an option to express your dissatisfaction, but please consider reaching out to someone in a senior Sales role to better understand how the territory plan might actually increase your effectiveness on the team.

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.
