What is the salary like at LeadSimple?

Remote work, allows for flexibility, pay is decent, room for growth.

Floundering leadership with poor management skills. If this company survives with the way that it's being run I'll be incredibly surprised. They've fired people with no notice for no reason several times and have little care for you as a person.

When I started there, and for a good portion of my time there, we had a phenomenal team and I very much enjoyed working there. There still remains a handful of excellent employees that would be thrilled to work with again. The pay and benefits are good.

When I started, the company actually felt like a team. My direct manager was fantastic, and all of the peers on my team were equally fantastic. We genuinely cared about each other. Among many of the non-leadership employees, those sentiments remained. But, unfortunately, leadership prioritized this less and less over time—opting instead to treat everyone like a faceless, soulless number with a ranking. The entire time I was there, employee turnover was always concerningly high. In my just shy of two years there, I'd estimate that we had around 50 employees leave (including both quitting and being fired). 50! Mind you, the size of the company when I started was only about 30, and currently sits at about 45. I'd never experienced anything like it before. In fact, I discussed the issue with three C-suite members of our leadership team. They seemed unconcerned. Then at the end of 2024, they laid off about 25% of the company, including about 65% of the product/engineering staff. Mind you, this is a software company, with basically no remaining employees to...build software. In the wake of that, the engineering staff continued to dwindle even further. By the time I left, there were exactly two engineers remaining (with a combined 14 months of tenure at the company), a single product manager, no product designers, and because all of the engineering staff who had any long-term domain knowledge had left, the entirety of the domain knowledge went with them. At our peak, we had about 10 engineering folks and about 5 product folks. It became more and more clear during my last 6 months there that the only thing they were interested in is hitting arbitrary revenue goals to inflate the perceived value of the company so that the company could be sold. The employees simply became a means to an end for the benefit of a select few folks who had equity in the company. The stellar quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year growth (that would have been enviable by any other company) that the company achieved was glossed over in update meetings, with the focus always being on how badly we were missing our long-term targets. Early on, I would have been happy to recommend this company. In fact, I did and we hired one of the people to whom I recommended the company. Unfortunately, I can no longer recommend the company.

Solid salary, great supportive team,

Very high targets and sometimes stressful

3 years ago I would have highly recommended working at LeadSimple. We were all about solving problems that genuinely helped property managers, have fun doing it and make good money as a byproduct. The product has a lot of potential. And there are a lot of great people who work at LeadSimple still. Unfortunately, leadership took a turn for the worse in the last 2 years.

I was one of the longest standing members of the company, so I witnessed it transform over time. We had a clear purpose for a long time--to help property managers win. Unfortunately, through extremely poor leadership decisions, that purpose morphed into "make as much money as we can". Employees began being treated like numbers; literally. Before I departed HR was working on a plan to assign a number to each employee that would determine their performance-even for roles that are extremely hard to measure by number (much less one)! The leadership team is driving at an unrealistic revenue target and have been willing to terminate some of their best employees to hit it. They're willing to do whatever it takes to achieve this goal, even if it means laying off some of their best team members and their core product team (despite the fact the product team was already short staffed and the customer experience was suffering as a result). They've been progressively making more and more decisions that are not serving the needs of the customer or their team. As an early team member, I'm sad to write this, but I can't recommend working at LeadSimple anymore. To be clear, there are still a number of great people there and I wish them the best. But unless leadership takes a significant turn and gets back to the values that made the company successful in the first place, I don't see the company surviving.

Okay Salary. Good staff, remote work with flexibility.

Leadership is completely lost. The churn rate is as high as possible, and the company has decided to lay off the entire product and engineering team, which was already running with a skeleton crew instead of using resources to improve it. There’s no support and no room for growth. Employees are constantly feeling anxious and afraid of being fired. Company meetings are a joke. CEO/COO are just actors.
