Leap reviews

Like many companies in the home improvement and construction space, this year has been especially challenging. Market shifts, interest rates, and broader economic pressures have forced difficult decisions. Change has happened quickly at times, which can feel unsettling - especially for newer employees still getting their footing.

- They just laid off over 20 people ten days before Christmas. They pay $500k a year to Nexa Equity (PE firm owners) for a "Management fee" that is really just cash extraction. Leadership team all get 30% bonuses on salaries at $250k or higher, yet they led the company into such a poor position that a RIF of almost 20% of staff was required. Shows they don't actually lead or take responsibility for their own poor performance. - Company in general just doesn't seem like it has real direction or a plan, and the PE owners hold the purse strings so tight, the funds aren't there to support anything that might work anyway. - For reference, I was hired 7 months ago, and finance positions are usually protected from RIF's since the teams already run lean, yet their forecasting and vision was so shortsighted that they couldn't predict a downturn in the construction and home improvement industry with the tariffs being implemented. Does not give confidence in their ability to lead. - They also advertise on this very page their veteran initiative; they didn't even acknowledge Veteran's Day back in Nov, further shows their fakeness.
