Bilt Rewards reviews

- Leadership is scatterbrained and non-existent in some regards. Priorities are constantly shifting and that often isn’t discussed or communicated to key stakeholders until a decision has already been made by the executive team. - In office is essentially required 5 days/week. While this isn’t inherently a problem, a lack of dedicated work space, meeting rooms, and a cramped environment makes it difficult to focus and get work done. - Feedback loops don’t really exist unless you explicitly seek them out, making it difficult to know where your performance stands relative to expectations. - Much of the culture is driven by the whims of a CEO that can best be described as a megalomaniac and micromanager. - This is not a standard 9 to 5 gig and requires constant monitoring of slack and email during evenings and weekends to ensure you stay up to speed.

- Being mostly in-office, it is an incredibly disruptive environment. Sonos system always playing or someone talking to you despite having headphones on. Finding a quiet place to work means you'll need to work from home. - There's a very strong "bro" culture that revolves heavily around alcohol. If you are a POC, queer, or gender non-conforming person, I would steer clear. This will be a challenging environment for you. - Initiatives change fast and frequently with little regard to what's already in flight or what needs to be tended to. - From my perspective, there is a cult of personality surrounding CEO, Ankur Jain. Many people in the company are extremely deferential to him, leading to decisions being made on a whim or under the pretense of keeping him appeased. For example, he is constantly sending urgent change requests to teams which are immediately prioritized despite having significant consultation from those building the product who also have subject matter expertise. - Product direction is a moving target, influenced by the above point. Initiative organization and work tracking is hit or miss, leading to inaccurate timelines and a blurry scope of work. - Engineering standardization of quality is rough. Between services, versions and quality standards vary greatly, even within pods. There is unnecessary bloat and little thought put into future evolution. Much of the work planned is focused on what went wrong on the previous Rent Day.
