Pros
Cool tech if you’re interested in the retail home improvement, particularly the roofing and siding industry. If you’re from the roofing/siding industry this is a great way to join a tech company. If you’re from the tech industry, this will not be a brand/experience builder unless you’re coming from a lesser known/reputable company.
Cons
Hover seems like a great place to work at first. Once you peel back the onion, you realize there is a really tight group of OGs in a boys club who make almost all the decisions with seemingly endless opportunities to fail. The rest of the company is held to a more ruthless standard. Assume you’re not in the club if this isn’t obvious to you right now and you likely won’t break into this club as a new hire. To summarize in the company’s own values: Think: about how to protect yourself and never cross someone in the boys club Do: not ever speak up to hard with ideas that contradict your leader or someone who has more clout that you Serve: your leader and the business relentlessly. Avoid taking family leave for any reason. This company says it values leave but it really doesn’t in practice, especially family leave.
