Don't believe the positive reviews, they were planted. - Software Engineer e-Builder Employee Review

Pros

The CEO is a nice guy, which makes writing this negative review all the more difficult.

Cons

The CEO is a nice guy...but very shortsighted, and will eventually take down the entire company as a result. The problem is that it is impossible to innovate at the company because the people running development are lazy, firmly entrenched, and resistant to change. There's a reason that competing construction software companies like Procore are growing rapidly while e-builder struggles with even minor updates to its aging and outdated codebase (just for laughs, compare the e-builder and Procore web sites) The aforementioned management hubris, coupled with unwillingness to pay competitive salaries to attract top engineering talent pretty much guarantees that e-builder will inevitably vanish. My review title cautions against believing the positive reviews, and it doesn't take a genius to figure out they were planted - but if you don't believe me, it's simple to track down former e-builder employees via LinkedIn and get some e-mail addresses. Contact them directly and ask them if my opinion is accurate and fair,
