Pros

The best reason to work at Homebase is the economic mission that Homebase is on. From Day 1 when I started (and I believe when Homebase started) the mission has been to help small Main Street business owners' and their teams' lives easier by providing a software platform (mobile, web, tablet) that helps them manage their teams better. Whether it is through scheduling and time tracking, an HR service option (which every small business should have--like insurance), Financial service offerings like payroll, and/or offering their employees the chance to request a portion of their pay early before pay day (without cost to the employer), Homebase has it all. Here at Homebase, my biggest growth has been through the troubleshooting processes when customers present technology issues that are impacting their ability to manage their day to day routines. At any other company, I'd be doubtful of any fast resolution, but the engineering teams at Homebase are on top of any issue that comes their way. Overall I think the biggest pro is the people you work with and the tools they give you to do your job. Benefits are great here too, but I'm not just here for the benefits, though. I'm here for the mission and the tools we offer to our customers here at Homebase.

Cons

There's no real downside to Homebase for me because the honeymoon has not stopped from Day 1 for me, however if you are seeking consistency in your work environment, the only thing that consistently happens is change, but that's what makes the team culture great here! because we all go through change together.

Rollin' With My Homies!

Pros

I've been a "Homie" for a bit more than a year and I really like it here. I feel we are very mission driven from the bottom to the top (help small businesses) and it's a great group of people to work with. Our leadership team is very transparent with how the business is doing (the good and the not as good) and have created a culture of hard work and having fun. Every single employee can make a difference in how Homebase is doing if they are willing to work hard and find solutions (instead of just pointing out problems). I feel like the people here (all the way through the leadership team) genuinely care about me and my well-being as a human, and not just as an employee. I'm very happy at Homebase and feel excited about the future.

Cons

Most similar companies (small VC backed tech companies) offer flexible PTO policies, so having to once again manage days off is tedious, especially in your first year while you are accumulating days. They have recently taken some steps to try to improve on this policy.

Pros

Ummmm...great work space. Paid pretty well..

Cons

Ohhh toxic work environment. Constantly fearing if I'd have a job the next day. Was hired on with the promise to never have to do sales and then not even 2 months in was forced to do sales. Was constantly doing another job. Expectations were dependent upon how much you interacted with upper management. Rules constantly were bent to favor certain employees and to hender others. Very very weird dynamics.
