Ventajas
Stack Builders has fostered one of the best work environments I have ever witnessed. Every colleague and peer you have is there to help you. There's nothing resembling competetiveness between employees. Great culture, amazing teammates and great talent as well.
Desventajas
Stack Builders has the potential to become an all round great company but the leadership won't let it. Specifically, the CTO lacks the skills necessary to lead, manage, delegate and inspire coworkers. Stack Builders had its peak in late 2023 & early 2024, it was thriving. At that point, CTO was rarely ever seen in meetings, operations decisions, etc. Then, CTO came back and started imposing their view on every aspect of the company. They got rid of the VP of Engineering (one of the brightest Engineers I have seen), and they also micromanaged everyone at his reach. Senior Talent started fleeing the company and hasn't stopped ever since. It's fair to say from those days around 70% of Senior Talent left the company. No one holds the CTO accountable and that's the resulting company you get. I sincerely hope this changes for the greater good of the company, but I doubt it will happen.
