Builders FirstSource Design Department Employee Reviews

Love working for BFS. But the higher ups in the company I feel have forgot about us. It makes me feel just like a number now from years past.

communication, setting expectations, performance reviews, clear direction...

Review from Design Dept · Posted 11 days ago

Leadership needs to actually listen to the employees when they bring up concerns or suggestions to best practices. There is a huge disconnect between what management says is going to happen and what actually takes place on a daily basis.

Review from Design Dept

Leadership team needs to do a better job of connecting the advertised goals of the company to an individual's efforts. There needs to be more training of team members to allow them to better contribute to achieving the company's goals.

Review from Design Dept

I have a 21 year old and a 23 year old. They're both making almost as much money as I am after being in my job for 30 years. Bigger raises are needed to keep up with the increase in minimum wage. The flexibility and no weekends make up for the pay.

Everyone seems to have their own way of doing things. This can be important when trying to hone your own skills and processes. A different perspective is usually a positive thing.

There needs to be more training to allow for coworkers to be acting in a uniform fashion, and therefore have similar expectations of their abilities.

Sales staff needs to be accountable for their decisions, and hold the customer accountable for their change orders and ever-evolving project parameters.

Review from Design Dept

There doesn't seem to be any commitment to our store. There isn't clear leadership or defined pathway to success. My skills are under-utilized. This place lacks consistency and adequate processes, causing wasted time and effort everyday

Review from Design Dept · Posted 11 days ago

The corporate vision is not being executed on the lower levels, so there is a disconnected feeling when it comes to what the company says versus what we at the lower levels are actually doing...

Review from Design Dept

Better organization for this large of company should be paramount and is not practiced at a level I expected.

Review from Design Dept

There is a serious disconnect between the "corporate image" that is presented to the world, and the actuality of working here to achieve positive results.
