Yardi Systems reviews

Pay is either at market rate or below depending on the position. Raises often don't reflect performance. In my experience, nearly everyone above manager level is hired from outside the company. CEO has visited our office exactly one time in five years. Most of upper management is about the same. They don't really care until a huge problem erupts. They've fostered an environment of "just doing the minimum." You'll find yourself consistently working around some people/departments just to do your job. This relates to the next point. The workload between departments and even individuals isn't anywhere close to equal. You'll often see people watching movies on their phones at their desk day after day while you're swamped for a month or longer. The management and pay/raise structure gives people no stimulus to seek out more work when they have nothing left to do. If you are doing twice the work of the person sitting next to you who has the exact same job... consistently... for a year, you will receive a slightly higher (at best) annual raise and no other acknowledgement. Your immediate manager *may* give you praise but ultimately they do not determine your raise. Your opinions don't really matter regardless of track record or how familiar you are with a client. Someone from upper management will propose a change. You'll respond to your manager, "I don't think xyz client will go for that. They want things done specifically this way like they have been doing for the past 10 years." Your manager will pass along that information. The change will go into effect anyway. The client will cancel services for all 15 properties and give that as the main reason why they canceled. Then management will revisit the situation to investigate how we could have improved our service. There is a disconnect between upper management and everyone up to the base level managers. This is the result an archaic management structure that leads to hilariously sad games of telephone. Recently, a client emailed me in full-rage caps lock, irate about changes that never happened that they've been requesting for months. I forwarded their email to the appropriate department with all managers cc'ed, and am still waiting for answers as to how to help this client get what they need and what they are paying for... There is nothing else I can do except wait. This happens frequently. Much of the schedule, flexibility and work/life balance that came with this company has evaporated. One of the directors is specifically responsible for many of these policy changes and resulting problems. He actively works against his own goals and doesn't realize it. He tells everyone upon being interviewed / hired that the company was a mess until he arrived and started changing things. From all my interactions, it seems like he has a huge god complex. I've noticed several other reviews name him personally only to be removed (I think) because that is against community guidelines here to name anyone below executive director. Filter reviews by city until you find the lowest rated Yardi office in the U.S. That may be his office.

The management at this company was less than ideal. They make false accusations and when asked for evidence, fail to provide any. They make it very clear whom they favorite and that person is the only opinion they listen to. They tell you one thing one day and tomorrow it can be something entirely different. They do not take criticism, they don't seem to like it when employees bond and have actually gone out of their way to call out an employee for their friendship outside of work with another. They threaten to write you up for the smallest of mistakes like if you spell something wrong. If you are not a perfectionist this is not the place for you. HR is extremely bias and makes sure you are aware of that. Whenever called into managers office you knew you were in trouble, it felt like being called to the principals office. It was an extremely toxic work environment which resulted in severe damage to my mental and physical health. Constantly walking on eggshells, scared to say the wrong thing. You can not even have conversations with co-workers without the boss running over to see what was going on, micromanaging, given goals of daily numbers and if you do not reach them, getting talked to, no positive reinforcement, management even tried to make reaching numbers into a competition in which they would send an email every week showing everyone's numbers in the department and those who met or surpassed would receive a prize. Also be sure to talk about employees in private if they really want to talk about them.
