Culture and benefits at GoBuild (fka Brick)

**We’re Building A Culture Of:** - Seeking and embracing a diversity of thought, perspectives, experiences and skills - Excellent and proactive communication about work, personal needs, and expectations. - Learning, curiosity, self-awareness, and personal growth - Interest in the depth and complexity of human & emotional experience related to home ownership and money **Our Priorities** We use a simple 'X over Y" prioritization structure to help our team and investors understand our strategy and how we execute - Simplicity over Complexity: This should be palpable from every part of our product and culture. Customers suffer in unnecessarily complex financial products. - Experience over Pedigree: Having a strong degree can help, but we prefer experience in building products for customers that solve both difficult emotional and financial challenges. - Empathy over Theory: Homeownership is a challenge that faces Americans from all backgrounds. Having a team that can empathize with those experiences is paramount for us. - Diversity over Homogeneity: Diversity, in all senses of the word, is important to our long-term growth and success. We believe that a company's stance on diversity is established in the first few hires and investors, and we're looking to continue our strong stance. 85% of our team and investors are people of color and/or women. - Business Focus over Technical Opportunities: We focus on building our competitive advantage(s) in business logic and software systems, and aren't afraid to outsource libraries/services that are not about our key differentiators. - Customizability over Over-abstraction: It’s easy to try and make everything abstracted, but that can make it much harder to customize certain experiences.
