Pros

Most of the people they hire are killers. Some of the most talented people I've ever met. This can be a con to some people but the pace is insane. Sometimes it's pure chaos for the sake of causing chaos. My first month here my workload was 4x the busiest I have ever experienced prior. Pete's ambition is very infectious but he talked like some normal random New York construction worker so I respectfully call him the smartest dumb guy I've ever met. You kind of need someone like that to dream big and attract big talent. Most importantly for me, there are free lunches.

Cons

I like working off hours but sometimes there will be a random hella long phone call that upends my weekend plans. There are surprise meetings as well that can derail plans. You have to be prepared to move from one company to another or from one role to another. If you are very competent in one area, you will be asked to do that same thing for another company sometimes. Sometimes strategies aren't allowed to play out because they are "long" plays. Sandwiches for lunch sometimes 3 times a week when once a week is enough. Massive carbs for lunch sometimes.

Pros

Mission-Driven, Not Just Marketing: Most companies have values on a wall, but here, we actually live them. We dedicate real company time to dissecting our mission and discussing how it impacts our daily work. It’s raw, honest, and better than any culture I’ve experienced elsewhere. Meritocracy: There is massive opportunity from tech and ops to investments within real estate. The company genuinely invests in employee development and rewards you based on your production, output and potential, not just what’s on your resume. The Invictus Mentality: We are relentless. The environment is high-performance; we take our lumps, learn from them, and keep moving forward. It’s a culture of winning.

Cons

High Intensity: The "Invictus" mindset isn't for everyone. If you aren't comfortable with a fast-paced environment where you're expected to learn quickly from setbacks, you might find the pace challenging.

Pros

Flexible work from home environment

Cons

- Despite being positioned as a tech company, the organization operates primarily as a real estate company with very limited understanding of how to build and sell a tech product. The product itself is not market ready and BDRs are set up to fail from the start. - Leadership is highly micromanaging and deflects blame downward when results don't materialize, rather than acknowledging fundamental product and market fit issues. - Performance expectations were not clearly defined or communicated in writing during onboarding. Targets appeared to shift retroactively. - There appears to be a pattern of hiring BDRs with promises of growth and commission, then terminating around the 90 day mark when the product fails to generate interest — regardless of individual effort. - Resources provided to do the job were extremely limited. When concerns were raised, the response was essentially to figure it out independently. - No formal review process or structured feedback before termination. Issues were raised for the first time at or near the point of firing. - Compensation structure including guaranteed commission was not handled transparently after separation.
