Pros

This is a pretty tough question. At first it was great, then it became a place of just get your work done and that's about it. Hard to say if I can really find a PRO besides working on the product was fun at times, but it's also built int a way that will crash overtime. So fun product, but it's a ticking time bomb where no one really knows how to fix the database issues.

Cons

Working at BuildFire is a place where you feel as if you're a number and the team size is very small. I've left with some other employees because we felt we were treated unfairly in many situations. If you just look at other reviews of the company you will see what I am talking about. They are essentially selling snake oil to customers every day. Having promises that they cannot deliver, stating features they don't have, and I simply didn't feel comfortable working in a place like that or working with a team that thinks that is OK.

This isn't a legitimate review. We've never had an engineer here.
