Yikes - Property Analyst PropLogix Employee Review

You can never argue with the way someone feels so I am not here to tell you that your feelings are wrong. Your thoughts below are coming from a true emotion that you felt, and I can honestly say I am sorry you felt that way working for PropLogix. However, I do think it's necessary to share some insight since some of the assumptions made below are untrue. Maybe the facts will help you recognize why the company functions the way it does. PropLogix does have an amazing vision to create software to help make the home buying and selling process more simple and transparent and we've absolutely invested in the resources necessary to help bring that vision to life. PropLogix also has a vision of becoming one of the best companies to work for, and we know that this can only be done by making every single employee our #1 priority and treating them all fairly, which is why our most important Core Value is 'Treatment of People'. The snacks, free company events, and catered lunches aren't to bribe anyone, it truly is just to create a nice working environment for everyone. The more company events we have, the more opportunity people have to build relationships, and we believe that everyone will enjoy coming to work even more when they've build trust, respect, and friendships with their co-workers. Jesse, our CEO, wants nothing more than success for all his employees, entry-level or experienced it doesn't matter. He believes everyone is playing a vital role in reaching our goals which is why he created the employee equity program that allows every employee in any position to own a piece of the company. It's also part of the reason every employee should be excited that as a company we are investing in a bright future because everyone who puts in the work and the time will reap the rewards. Our IT team is incredible, they work hard to streamline our technology systems while our team of developers is dedicated to building software. The devs do a great job of bringing new products to market like Estoppels.com as well as building efficiencies and automation into the systems we already have in place. Sometimes development projects do get re-prioritized and moved around so it can seem like a technology you've been waiting for is taking longer than expected. That is because the company is agile and makes quick decisions and takes risks to take advantage of opportunities as they present themselves. We are always looking for ways to generate revenue for the health of our company and the betterment of our employees. For instance, when COVID-19 hit we did change our software development direction so we could create a part-time work at home program called Prop@Home bringing jobs to America instead of being outsourced overseas. We never planned on building that capability into our system, but will always do what we believe is best for our employees, their friends and family, our company, and our country. Because of efficiencies we were able to build quickly and programs we created we never had to FURLOUGH one employee during that time and are actually hiring about 19 people a week right now to handle the demand we've built. We were able to do a lot of this because our CEO Jesse invested some of his own personal money in the company and the entire leadership team took a 25% pay cut because that is the type of leaders we have that will do anything to ensure the team (entry-level or not) will stay intact and be unaffected. Jesse and his 2 partners have never taken a dime from the company and always reinvest back into our technologies, which is incredible. And to clarify, we certainly are not trying to sell any of our software to anyone. We are looking to grow our business using our technological advancements, and continue to acquire other companies inclusive of their software to make our company stronger as well. We do plan to go public one day, and constantly talk about our companies valuation. We are very open and transparent with our employees and want them to know what their equity units are valued at today. As for pay...in 2019 we ensured that for every single entry-level position we were paying no less than $14.25 an hour with the goal to bring it up to $15 an hour by the end of 2020, which is still a goal of ours regardless of COVID-19. The entry-level positions do not require any previous experience or a college degree. It includes incredible healthcare benefits, an amazing PTO program, and 401K match. There are not many other jobs in the local area offering positions at that level of pay inclusive of the benefits package we offer. We actually pride ourselves on being able to do that and develop talent from within. The opportunities for promotion within the company are endless.
