Pros

You can work remote. Opportunity to value properties.

Cons

The managers have no idea how to properly manage a team. It was very unprofessional the way they went about dividing out responsibilities. And every day I was waiting for them to give me work and when they let me go, they said that I wasn’t pulling my weight when I was waiting on them to give me work to do.

Pros

Amazing company with great hands-on training and team support. Innovative technology and open to change and improving results for the customers. Though my time was seasonal, it was a great environment for learning property tax appeals for someone with no experience when I started.

Cons

No cons at this time.

Pros

Competitive compensation at the offer stage. Good people, the day-to-day environment is genuinely friendly and collaborative. Food in the office is a real perk when well-stocked.

Cons

Tooling and platforms are heavily locked down. It's difficult to experiment with or learn modern tools, which limits both execution and your ability to grow your skill set. Frustrating at a company that's supposed to be tech-forward. Limited path for growth. The leadership bench is almost entirely made up of people hired directly into leadership roles. Promoting up from IC isn't really a thing here. You can be doing director-level work without ever getting the title or comp that should come with it. No 401k match is a strange omission at this stage. Post-Series B, with strong financials - the absence stands out when you're comparing total comp against other Austin tech offers. Been requested monthly and never given a good reason against. In-office culture leans toward desk-watching. Presence and visibility are valued in ways that feel disconnected from output.
