Pros

Great team to who invest their time in helping you succeed Base pay + comms = very high Great CEO and CTO who take the time to meet with you Generous company which invests in your development Not a cut throat culture - you win as a team

Cons

Lack of structured training in onboarding but your team mates will spend a lot of 1:1 time with you to get you up to speed.

you will burn out

Business outlook

Pros

- high bar for hiring, you'll work with some great people - good benefits and salaries - strong business: product is superior to competition

Cons

- hire-to-fire strategy: work is structured in a way that burns out people, and that is a *deliberate* strategy by management, although you'll be gaslighted into thinking it's just growth pains/temporary bad luck - "Unlimited time-off" is not true, there will ALWAYS be new deadlines and not enough people: good luck getting 2 weeks per year at best - Sales work: you will be a sales person, not a data analyst: prepare to bend over backwards to satisfy the client representatives, don't expect to do rewarding analytical work - "Look effective vs Be effective" - you will be explicitly told to focus on shallow perception by the clients ("look effective") instead of facts and truth-seeking (you'll get good at "reframing" your data) - Your time will not be respected: prepare to be on-call 24/7 at any time of day and night (especially night, most clients are in US), and spend ~3 hours per day in mostly useless meeting where you'll be micromanaged. And they will be split into random 30 minute intervals because your non-technical managers won't respect the notion of focus or deep work. - No work-life balance: expect to work 12-hour days and some weekends - Toxic positivity: you'll be gaslighted into thinking that everything is great, and you are the problem. Management does not acknowledge that the points above are serious issues that need to be addressed

We are really sorry you didn't have a positive experience with us, but it does sound like your experience was unique. We're proud of our employee retention rate of 94% and that of the people we've hired for your position (data analysts) over the life of the company, only two are no longer with us. With that said, Constructor is not for everyone, and our culture is one in which we treat our customers as well as we possibly can, and if something is urgent in their eyes, it's likely urgent for us as well. We set a high bar of service for our customers, and it's not for everyone. The look effective vs be effective point is a good example of this, but there may have been some misunderstanding on it. We want to make sure that even when we believe what we're doing for our customers is effective, if the customer themselves do not believe it looks effective, our work is not done. Again, it is not for everyone, but we do believe it is important because, without happy customers, we would not be able to build a business we're proud of. We very much appreciate the time you spent with us, and even though it did not work out in the end, we wish you only success in your future endeavors.
