Great experience but a lot of window dressings

Pros

Fun job. Many perks. Awesome culture and co workers.

Cons

Below average pay. Will live paycheck to paycheck for first year before eligible for promotion. They spend a lot of money on employees indirectly. So you’ll love it, but your bank account won’t.

Pros

Cool office Good work/life balance Low stress

Cons

Outdated technology - After a few years here, you're pigeonholed to working on legacy systems in old tech stacks Bro culture and favoritism. Brown nosing and sucking up is the key to moving up here. Except the company believes in a flat org, so zero room to move up. Pay is ridiculous. The downside to such a lax work environment is that it is used as justification to keep pay low. This company is also full of people who have never been anywhere else. This creates an echo-chamber in terms of technology and solutions and they genuinely feel they're doing it "the best way". If they branched out a little bit, they'd realized they are in the stone-age compared to the rest of the world. The product sucks. You won't be proud of it. It's bloated crap and customer turnover is high because of it.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. As always, we appreciate your candid input! It’s always helpful to hear all sides of the perspective. While we know that Buildertrend is not for every individual, we are striving to maintain an incredible culture that will support us in continued success. We do believe life is better here and although the total compensation package is very competitive to the market, we know that our employees also value the balance they can have in their lives while at Buildertrend. Buildertrend’s entire value proposition is encouraging all individuals to live a balanced and healthy lifestyle, while working at a really successful organization. Not many organizations as successful as we are can support that. Our product is vast, but that allows our 15,000+ customers to use our product to change the way they build and operate. Our Development shop prides itself on our ability to release new features to our customers and upgrade our tech stack. With new projects like our migration to React, Typescript, GCP and WebAPI, as well as cross functional development opportunities to learn native iOS and Android frameworks, our employees are growing and developing in meaningful ways. We value input from each current employee, regardless of tenure or background, and will continue to value input from the 100+ Developers we are hiring this year alone. We are proud of the community we’ve built here and look forward to doubling again in 2019!
