Opendoor

Pros: 
- It's a family. I've found that people truly care about one another here and genuinely want to help each other succeed - both personally and professionally. I love coming to work surrounded by incredibly smart, kind individuals.
-Customer-centric company. The customer is always first and that is an extremely important value to me in a company.
- Product is innovative and disruptive. Opendoor is well positioned to be the industry leader and truly change how people buy and sell their homes. It's a good time to join.
- There is SO much opportunity to improve process and how we operate as a business. For those who enjoy that challenge, this is an incredible place to make an impact (and quickly).
-Transparency. I'm actually shocked at how much the leadership team shares with employees -- the amount of financial detail and insight into the business that the team shares has personally been a huge shock for me and my previous companies. They even share details from board meetings -- I think there's a lot of trust in employees (frankly, I think they will need to reel it in soon) and I see authenticity in how our leaders share and react to changes in the business.
-I have a LOT of faith in the business and the leadership team. I can sense a genuine respect and fondness among the e-team so that even when they don't agree, they are supportive of one another and only want what's best for the company.

Cons: 
The company experienced an INSANE amount of growth in one year (borderline reckless growth). So there are a lot of functions and internal processes that haven't been built properly to support the current size of the company. This is very much felt within nearly every team at Opendoor. Onboarding is a mess.

The business, product, and how we operate is SO COMPLICATED. I've been here for months and still learn new things about the business every day.

I think there are some mid-management issues and people don't have an opportunity to provide anonymous feedback against smaller micro-aggressions happening around the office.

There are some pretty unqualified people in certain roles - I think there's some favoritism in certain teams (not too overt, though) and people have been prematurely promoted or given responsibility simply because they've been here longer or because no one else was doing it. There's an opportunity for org design and better recruitment policies.

I'm not impressed with the benefits offerings here. I would have thought that a tech company in San Francisco would invest more in retaining talent.

I originally got this job because I'm interested in real estate, have a strong sense of customer service/experience skills and a friend had such a glowing review of the company it made me apply. 

We have one mandatory day per week in the Tempe Office and it's always a great time with music, espresso bar, catered lunches, etc. If I lived closer to the office, I'd work there everyday. 

For anyone who enjoys working from home, this is the job for you. Management is great and besides the typical 2-3 team meetings and 1:1's per week, no one checks in on you if you're getting your work done and hitting/exceeding all your goals. The goals are very attainable for anyone that has past sales experience and doesn't mind doing a couple cold calls on a daily basis (sometimes don't even need to if it's a busy day). 

This is the huge benefit to me personally... we are paid a lot considering the amount of actual work we do. I left a corporate banking job making more than twice the amount of money but working 70-80 hours week. We 'work' 40 hours a week here but realistically it's more like 25-30 and that provides the work-life balance I was looking for for my family and I. 

The only real con for me has been that I was being prepped for their leadership development track before the housing market and interest rates put a huge pause on most of the company's plans. So as of now, there's no immediate path for advancement and the company has a 'make it through this' mentality, which is totally understandable considering the economy. 

Speaking to that, the CEO and C-suite in general are all amazing and have clearly planned extensively to make it through this turbulence in the real estate industry. The CEO has recently stepped down to focus more on specific parts of the business but his successor is great and has a certain demeanor to her that the company needed moving forward. 

I really have enjoyed my time working here so far and once we start hiring again, this is a great company to grow in with a great culture and also gives you a plethora of real estate resources that you typically otherwise wouldn't have access to. 

Title really states it all. Management shows clear favoritism throughout every level of the company. As always, it’s not about what you know and how you preform - but rather who you know and who (above you) you’re friends with. Pay is fair when you first start and learning the ropes - but once you know all you’re doing, seems unfair to be getting paid the same as people who don’t know what they’re doing and messing up (you have to clean up after them & are paid the same). Promotions are next to impossible to receive with some employees dedicating years to the company without recognition. 

No respect for life outside of work and will change your schedule without asking before hand + crazy hours. No benefits are provided for any of this. On top of all of this, your every move is watched over. 

They expect you to work with a “startup mentality” when the company has been around for almost a decade - and is not a startup anymore. The reason they say this is so that they can change things constantly within the company and you are expected to stay on your toes and know when things are updated. However, they don’t ever announce the changes made and you are expected to dig deep yourself in order to figure these changes out. With that being said, there is clearly no communication across departments as they aren’t updated with changes made. 

Customers & shareholders alike seem to be increasingly more upset with the company each day as stock value plummets and changes made in the process hurt customers more than help. Company claims to make buying and selling easier for the customer - but seems to do the opposite with everything mentioned previously. 

Inadequate trainings coupled with unreasonable amounts of information lead to inexperienced employees causing more chaos then help. 

The top of the company is lining their pockets while the bottom is expected to work for quarters and carry the weight of the corporation. 


First, let’s talk about the positive during my time there. Interview process was okay but you will typically interview with 3-4 people before hearing back with a decision. It was a hybrid role but mostly remote with only being required to be in office 1 day per week. The pay and benefits were great. They covered my insurance premiums for myself at 100%. There was a healthy amount of competition between the sales people. Management did a good job of posting fun things to do in slack so that people would interact more and get to know each other more. Most of the sales people were actually really cool once you got to know them. They used to have a budget that was given to managers to take their teams out for team building but that was eliminated when the market turned. You can make good money if you are a true sales person. Bonuses for contracts signed.

Now the not so great things:
Management plays favorites. No one manager is the same. Some are way more laid back than others. Managers will set you up for failure if it makes them be seen in a better light. They eliminated some cool benefits once things started going downhill which is understandable as they needed to cut costs to stay afloat. Advancement is determined by how much of a brown noser you are, and people that perform at a lower level will get promoted over you if they are friends with the right people there. They were unethical at times with preferential treatment. Keep any opinions you have to yourself about the company or process otherwise you will never recover from it with upper management. Layoffs seem to come every few years and the time leading up to each one it is extremely stressful. You’re constantly reminded to work hard so you’re not let go. A lot of hard working people were let go meanwhile mediocre people were kept. 

I left my real estate brokerage to work as a touring assistant with opendoor. This was a big mistake! When I left my old real estate brokerage, I had to hang my license at open-door first. It took them literally three and a half weeks for them to inform me what the next step was. By the time my "training" came, ( which was just an hour video), a month had passed since I came to the company.  After I completed the so-called training , I started getting calls about customers wanting to see houses. I had lots of trouble logging into their system, but had little help in resolving the technical issues. It was just so hard to get help from anybody, and no one was accountable to offer any assistance. To make a long story short after showing a couple of houses, I noticed that I was not receiving any calls over the weekend. This is strange because most people want to see houses during the weekend. So on Monday I called opendoor to find out what was going on, and some person ( someone who told me that she should not be helping me but the individuals who could were not available) informed me that I was not added to their agent portal system.  The next day I got a call from someone who informed me that my agreement with opendoor was terminated. He said he could not provide me with an explanation or Reason for the termination. This is after I left my brokerage for what I believed to be a better opportunity, I am only writing this to let whoever wants to know that this company is not very professional and that the grass is not always greener on the other side. If they can terminate my agreement without reason or cause, they can and will do it to others also. Last but not least  they have yet to pay me  for the work that I did .  So be careful and be aware. God bless.

One of the worst companies I have ever worked for, run if you can. From the very beginning the interview process was horrible, it took over 6 1/2 weeks About six hours total interviewing unpaid, where I was offered one certain salary compensation and upon accepting an offer for a job it was then lowered by over 6K, the only explanation I was given is because my position didn’t work out with previous employees . Was then told don’t worry about the pay because there is plenty of room to move around in other areas in order to get the pay I am custom to for my tenure in the mortgage industry. But then gave a peer a 5k raise just for moving to a different state.There is no structured training, you are required to go through training during your peers free time or whenever they have time to train you. Absolutely no support from management, I mentioned how there is a disconnect in training and where there can be improvement and gave suggestions, also mentioned areas of struggle for me and I was told the training works for everyone else so it should work for me I have to figure it out or I will be fired. You are not set up for success you are expected to purchase your own equipment and be reimbursed at a later date for it. No one makes sure the equipment that you are provided is set up properly or that you have all the tools you need to be successful in your position you are expected to just know how open door operates. They use the word “start up company” so that they are not held to any accountability from management or company standpoint

I was so excited to work at Opendoor until I actually got in and working there. Sadly, the environment was so toxic and no matter how much the customers loved me, the management always found something wrong that wasn’t even anything wrong. I literally got written up for using what they felt was the wrong emoji in the slack channel. I wasn’t allowed to talk to any upper management without the permission of my immediate supervisor. When I did respond to an upper managements message, I was written up for talking to them.  I couldn’t win any way I turned. The Director met with us on false pretenses and asked for suggestions and ideas and then I was told to, “stay in my lane”, and was silenced. One time they help a connect 6 meeting asking for feedback and then I got written up for answering their questions true and respectfully. They don’t really want feedback! I got amazing customer scores and letters of recommendation and was torn down weekly by my manager. Clients even stated they only wanted to work with me. Getting laid off was a blessing as I grew to dislike the company that I was once so excited to work at. 

OpenDoor uses deceptive hiring practices. I worked some days from 3:30 in the morning until 5:00 pm. I worked some days from 7:00 am until 11:00 pm. The whole time you are working those hours you will receive nothing but negative feedback. Also you will be laid off. It is not a question of if, but when you will be laid off. The pay was decent but they will continue to add additional responsibilities for no more pay. They will also wear out your vehicle. Your vehicle will stay full of their junk at all times. If you must have a job then take this as a stop gap but immediately start looking for a more stable company. Management is terrible and they change your duties / expectations daily. I am honestly amazed this company is still open. 

Opendoor takes the traditional way of selling a home and simplifies it. They have found a way to take out the middle man, using technology and algorithms, and offering to buy houses at fair market value, allowing people to easily sell their home.
As a Designated Market Analyst for Opendoor, I have spent months now on the acquisitions side of the process, helping people sell their houses to Opendoor at fair market value. The company is incredible in the fairness, transparency, and timeliness at which they handle everything. My in field supervisors are incredible, over-qualified people, and my office supervisors are amazing people as well. We all stay connected at all time, working as one big unit, not individuals. 
I spend about 8 hours in the field a day, and 2 hours afterwards writing final reports. Good gig for the pay!

This is a great company if you want college fraternity and sorority culture and professionalism thrown out the window.

HR barely does their job - located in a different state! hard to get a hold of, they do nothing with what you report.

Management is terrible. They are overpaid and underpay their employees. There is no support from management. 

Although you expect structure to be different in a start up - there is no structure and big changes are abrupt with no thought to employees, like changes in massive procedure changes/job description changes, commission reductions, PTO changes...too many to count. They try and fluff up the perks they offer like free food and free gym membership to cover up all the managerial failures they continue to do.

If you are a manager and overpaid, you love it. Otherwise you don't matter to them. There is no room to grow professionally. 

Work life balance purely depends on what team you are on.
