Drink the Kool Aid

Pros

Great Pay, Benefits, and Incentive programs

Cons

"Cliquey" You have to really play along to get along. If you do not get into the "spirit" of the company no matter how hard you work or how good your numbers are, you will not advance.

Thanks for the candid feedback. Good numbers and performance should be the primary reason for advancement at Build.com, period. However, I've seen some people get looked over not because of cliques, but more because they didn't assert themselves and express an interest in promotion. We're not that good at picking people out, its important that you raise your hand and constantly hound / apply for new opportunities. I hope this advice carries you forward in your future career!

Thanks for the feedback! Its difficult as you get larger and larger to keep that feeling, but first step is awareness. Thanks for the comment and we'll keep that in mind as we continue to succeed!

Pros

Fun place to work and can make good money for the area. Benefits are excellent and the company does a lot for you.

Cons

Hard to move up and hard to get out of sales when you get burnt out. Pay needs to be better.

Thanks for the kind review! Yes, communication is a perpetual problem in a large organization. We have launched our wiki, we sent out frequent emails about goings on, but we still struggle at times. We can do better and will continue to look for ways to communicate better without flooding your inbox with information you do not need to know.
