Pros

The benefits and vacation time was nothing short of exceptional The team building exercises were unorthodox but showed a step in the right direction

Cons

The company is ego driven in a niche market, however the fact that it's a niche (only pre construction condos) they're having a difficult time. I have never worked in a place where morale is low, the management has failed in all aspects of creating a successful business. Vacation time is not paid out and they expect employees to work upwards of 11 hours a day without vacation time being payed or overtime being payed. Egos drive management, titles are misleading and the culture is nothing short of pretentious. The turnover rate is unbelievably high, they also have a terrible reputation in the industry, no place to move up

Ouch. There are a lot of inaccuracies in this review, which is very concerning. We encourage all employees to take their vacation time as we feel it leads to a better work-life balance and improves employee morale. In the event that someone leaves part way through the year, we do pay out all vacation time accrued on their final cheque. If you did not receive your compensation, please contact our HR department. I receive daily reports from basically every employee at BuzzBuzzHome, and I am not aware of anyone who works 11 hours per day. Of course, at a startup, there are times when people work late, but we try to keep this to a minimum. Contrary to what you posted, we are extremely successful and on average grow at a rate of 6 to 10% per month, month over month. We currently have 40 staff, are hiring more, and we are profitable. It is working within a niche segment of the market that has allowed us fine tune our services and ensure that new home purchasers (and now renters) are receiving the best experience possible online. As for our reputation within the industry, we are one of the most respected firms operating in pre-construction and real-estate. We provide insight, and information, into the market never made public before. We have incredible relations within the industry, often speak at industry events, and are often the voice of the industry in major publications. Of course, disrupting and industry does create some unhappy people, but we don't mind. Regards, Matthew Slutsky President / Co-founder, BuzzBuzzHome Corp.

Pros

Really incredible place to work. Matt and Cliff are both very supportive individuals who try to provide flexibility and communicate transparently, which is particularly important given the world right now. We've had to build things out quickly to accommodate new needs throughout the pandemic. The work is engaging and the people are kind and smart.

Cons

None really. The reason I'm writing this is that all of the things that generally make BuzzBuzzHome a great place to work has made it a comparatively truly wonderful place to work with everything going on right now.
