BFS is downgrading Probuild brand

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Company does offer sick/personal time off.

Cons

Builders First Source has been cutting Probuild employee benefits (reduction in holidays, 401k match, vacation accrual) since it's acquisition which is driving employee talent away. They don't like to invest in new equipment neither.

Pros

There are good people with good intentions. Training program is no longer. The company went through an acquisition.

Cons

The training is below average as most employees do not have a vested interest in your success. They are more worried about hitting their numbers.

Good Place to Work - Lots of Changes

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Good place to work; feels like family. Managers care about you not just as an employee but as a team mate. Good pay, GREAT benefits.

Cons

Since the merger, the waters are a little murky in management. Tell you one thing, do something completely different. Feels a little like moving ten steps back to take two steps forward.
