      Pros

      Great work environment with a strong sense of cooperation and safety first. Fast-paced and challenging work mentally and physically. Great pay due to profit sharing, health and life benefits, 401k, and profit sharing. Friendly staff. Plethora of knowledge to be learned.

      Cons

      Working in yard entitles working through rain, snow, and burning heat with minimum of OSHA guidelines being administered. Long hours starting from 6am-6pm Mon-Fri. Hard labor intensive work constantly. Dangerous work zones pushed to the limit by pressuring management trying to increase productivity.

      Pros

      The compensation and annual bonus were very competitive.

      Cons

      Very immature organization in spite of being Fortune 500 company. Builders FirstSource is the most politically charged environment I've ever worked in. Bias and preferential treatment towards certain employees rivals the most severe cases of nepotism. The senior leaders in the IT organization, as well as other business unit leaders ( including within HR), completely lack ethics. If you seek a professional environment, BFS is definitely not the right choice.
