Pros
Buildertrend is very customer-focused and always working to improve. Some recent examples: changing our ways of working with AI, investing in training for employees, and more clear performance management. It's become more fast-paced with a high performance bar, and that's the environment I like to work in.
Cons
Can't think of any right now.

Cons
So many... Leadership is just a bunch of friends watching one another's back. They're all micro-managers who give you no autonomy or trust.
The design org is an absolute mess. No accountability and no growth leadership. Did a reorg only to manage many of the leads out of the company,
Constantly doing quiet layoffs. They've let go of several designers over the last 6 months or so under the guise of poor performance.
Some of the design managers have no idea what they're doing and are so prescriptive and give you no real feedback. You voice your concerns and you are reprimanded for it because they are all friends. It's lose lose.
The design system is an absolute mess and they refuse to invest in fixing it. You'd think a company in the construction industry would understand the value of the foundation.
