Vantaggi

Good idea for a company and the opportunity space is large enough that Built could fail upward. Being in the startup space means a lot of opportunity for networking (or at least there was a lot of opportunity, pre-layoffs).

Svantaggi

The leadership is just so bad and holding the company back. It's not that they're bad people, they're just legit incompetent in that they don't understand how to build trust with employees or why that is important. Here's the recent timeline. Feb - layoff 8% of workforce with no warning; managers weren't informed until the night before of who on their team was laid off and not consulted directly in the decisions. Official message is this is a one time deep cut. Mar-Jun : Sporatic removal of employees due to re-leveling, role reduction, etc. Company says these are different and aren't layoffs. Manager still have no concrete info. July : Layoff 14% of the workforce. Managers were told employees on their team were being let go 30mins - 1hr before it happened. Remaining employees have no actual trust in their managers because it's twice in six months folks were laid off and no one knew until it was happening. There were many poor decisions that led to layoffs, but the handling of them is what is truly unforgivable.

Vantaggi

Hard problems. Smart people. We’re fixing real, challenging probelms in real estate. You learn fast, you’re trusted, and the work matters.

Svantaggi

It’s not easy. Ambiguity is constant, the bar is high, and you have to be comfortable figuring things out as you go.

Vantaggi

- pay is good - most ICs are genuinely kind and smart

Svantaggi

I've been here long enough to realize no one in leadership has a plan. No one knows what they're doing. None of them. Built's success up to this point has purely been lack of competition. And as thats starting to change - they're scrambling and doing a "reorg" every 12 weeks and they cut jobs. As other reviews have stated - its usually the loudest person in the room who makes sweeping decisions that effect everyone at the org. I've lost count how many new technologies became "The Standard" because one person thought it would be cool to put on their resume. Then they inevitably leave and the rest of us are stuck maintaining a pile of garbage.
