Pros

If you are willing to work hard are rewarded, regardless of who you know in the building.

Cons

If you are lazy Build is not for you. If you are wanting life handed to you, Build is not for you. There are no cons in this company. Build.com is what you make it.

Pros

Where do I start? Constant growth, lively yet professional atmosphere, supportive of employees in all aspects, offers compensation that blows any other local company out of the water. Excellent training programs and employee discounts on not only companies own product offering but many other local services from mechanics, to real estate, gyms, eateries etc..Build cares about its people. FREE apples, oranges, bananas, oatmeal, cereal (and milk!), fresh local roasted coffee, espresso drinks in break rooms. Foosball and video games in break area, awesome covered outdoor patio for lounging or working on laptop, full kitchen where you can cook meals makes you feel at home. Activities where you can win trips, products or even cash! Build offers endless opportunity for advancement and works with me to help meet my goals. I've developed lifelong friendships and a professional network where we share passions not only for the company's best interests but for developing one another as well. Although large, it's a family here and you will find that if you stay honest, focused, flexible, goal oriented, inquisitive, and innovative your career path here can be tremendous. Don't be discouraged if you lack a degree or tons of training. If you actively display heart, focus and drive day in and day out.. incredible things can happen.

Cons

There is nothing I can say has been a con for me about Build that is specific to being a challenge here and only here. Typical of ANY work environment there are many personalities to deal with and departments. Great thing is Management and HR are super supportive in the rare events anything should require escalation.
