Working Alongside Talented and Hard-Working Folks - Software Engineer Honest Buildings Employee Review

- great colleagues, fun atmosphere - tons of support for on-boarding and training - free catered lunch on Fridays - great location in FiDi - booming company, so exciting news coming all the time with the company expanding - product that's easy to believe in; I truly believe Honest Buildings will be an industry standard in the future

- growing pains as the company continues to succeed and expand - lots of change; sometimes it can be hard to feel settled knowing things are not going to remain constant for long - occasional tension between engineering and other teams surrounding volume of work; everyone needs to remember we're all on the same team

- Great market traction, the product is solving real pains for customers. Customers are raving about the product. - Huge industry, waiting for disruption - "Get sh*t done" attitude - "If it doesn't work - then let's change it" attitude. Not a single soul at HB is waiting around for things to magically get better by themselves. Everything is a prototype. I love that sense of urgency, and that's why I work at a start up. - Incredibly smart and humble people - Open and transparent vibe, lots of collaboration going on - While I seven days a week choose cool and smart people and real problems to solve over some snacks or a free lunch here and there, can't complain about the perks. Unlimited vacay and sick days. Sick!

- Some growth pains. Hiring is tough, but needed. Finding the right internal processes and structures without slowing things down is tough, but needed. - We do need a next level office soon, with our own style, and even more space to collaborate. I'm really surprised about the negative reviews, almost in shock, but I guess it's maybe like Yelp in a way. It's either 1 or 5, and if you don't like your experience you're more likely to submit a review. Well, here's a positive review to balance it out. Without being asked to submit one. Is it the perfectest job ever? No. If you're looking for that, you will do nothing but look for the rest of your life. Is it damn good job where you learn a lot every day? Hells yes.
