Pros

Passionate people that believe the CEO's mission of helping end the housing crisis across the globe. Cutting edge technology in the concrete and 3D printing space. Great pay and good benefits.

Cons

Weak leadership - Unable to make rational decisions in a timely manner to advance projects and procedures. Favoritism - Anyone that does not fall in line with any part of leadership gets ostracized while those that brown-nose will get promoted all the way up. Massive lack of communication - Huge gap in communication from senior (Not C-Level) and middle level management to lower level employees that articulates the desired path the company and projects are heading. Refusal to admit current state of the business shows a lack of understanding of the construction industry. This does not come as a shock as most of the construction leadership lacks knowledge and experience in the physical construction space.

Pros

Fulfilling mission and drive to achieve. My team has been easy to work with and understanding. Ramps up at times but for good reasons. Working under experienced folks in my department and learning a lot. Company has good benefits.

Cons

For a startup, the equity compensation is limited and doesn't add much additional motivation. Still working on putting processes in place to start to automate back office work but still challenging.

Great Mission. Is it genuine?

Pros

This is a company with a mission that people can believe in, but that's the best part about it.

Cons

The mission is something people can stand behind, because we all want sustainable housing for family, friends, and ourselves. A real world problem with a solution to stand behind. But if they can't even take care of the people that are putting their blood, sweat, and tears into this company, and what it stands for, then what's the point? The lower you go into the company, the more it feels like everything is under false pretenses. Higher ups are out smoking cigars, while the technicians, leads, and service technicians are doing the jobs of more than one person out in the scolding heat of the summer, with no recognition. If you can't take care of the people that are putting in all this hard work than what is and who is this all really for? I genuinely believed in the mission of this company, so much so that I was telling others to stay hopeful, but looking back now, it feels like a big front for money. It's just sad, and pathetic.
