Pros

I met some people I truly consider friends. Flexible schedule and the ability to work from home as needed was amazing. Location was great for me, but its pretty far north, almost in Cedar Park.

Cons

Everything else? The CEO is one of the most self-involved people I have ever known. He seems to think he is the only person with an idea, and if he thinks of something, he seems to believe he invented it! He has zero tact, and screams to and about anyone that disagrees with him. Don't even think about requesting an appropriate pay raise when you get switched to a postion that is above your current one. All you will get in return is openly berated with reasons why you should be replaced with people from India who will work harder for a third the pay. In fact, it would not be surprising if most of the positions here eventually make their way to India or Costa Rica. They had already stacked up technology in both locations and artists in India before I left. This place runs its best employees right into the ground with a serious lack of appreciation for hard work, skills, or dedication. Work here only if you can muster the strength to be passed over for promotions, talked to with absolute disrespect, and just completely have the soul sucked out of you for giving your hard work and time for the benefit of a terrible CEO. The pay is not good enough for your troubles. There are far better companies to work for, with far better pay and benefits. Ones that won't constantly threaten to ship your job off shore because you dared to be a human being with an opinion.

Pros

Lot of positive changes with the new CEO and executive team. Pastries on Mondays, Taco Tuesdays, Volleyball, Basketball and pickleball games during lunch hours and Patio Parties on Wednesdays are all new, fun additions.

Cons

Open work space that gets loud

Pros

- New home construction is a stable industry that will continue to grow - Great and deep relationships with industry leaders, ability to influence and impact change - The onsite facility is fantastic, with a full court gym, workout area, taco breakfast, and weekly happy hours. - Recent partnership with Zonda will be positive for the company in the long run

Cons

- Entrenched technology and team members. Many team members have been around for a very long time and some have strong opinions that make running tests or optimizing processes challenges - Acquired by Zonda in 2024. There may be short-term disruption to the business.
