Bilt Employee Perspectives

Employees can experience Bilt as a welcoming and highly connected workplace from the beginning of their tenure. Personal gestures from teammates, a smooth onboarding experience and opportunities to interact with colleagues in the office can help new hires quickly feel part of the company and understand how the team works.

“The day that I accepted the offer to join Bilt’s product team, I received an email from Chris, our head of product, with a picture of the entire team holding a sign that read ‘Welcome, Ax!’ This gesture immediately put a huge smile on my face, and I knew that I was joining a special company.

My first few weeks were very smooth, and everyone was welcoming. Going into the office daily and chatting with people was a huge help in understanding the product, culture and how things are done.”

Bilt can offer engineers a workplace where experimentation, learning and collaboration are part of the day-to-day experience. Employees describe having opportunities to explore new technologies and workflows alongside their teammates, connecting personal development with the company’s progress.

“Our openness to new technologies has cultivated a learning culture where personal growth and company success go hand in hand. And most importantly, I think most engineers will agree that there’s something really exciting about being able to tinker with the latest and greatest technologies and workflows out there, especially when you can do it with your team.”
