Pros
The people I worked directly with were amazing. I have nothing positive to say about the senior leadership or most of my time at Ribbon Home.
Kontras
Those in Executive leadership have no idea what they're doing. They recently fired employees in public, on the street. In the last few months, they've let go of about half a dozen WOMEN in higher leadership roles and replaced them with men. They tout transparency, but they're anything but that. They gave less than 30 days notice for layoffs. They let 200+ people go the week of thanksgiving. They notified employees via email about the layoffs instead of having a meeting. They avoided meeting with anyone for 3-4 weeks leading up to the layoffs. No explanation was given as to how this happened. Founders blamed everyone in the company except themselves for the company's downfalls. They made cowardly choices in how they handled the layoffs. This company also lacks the ability to pivot. They never had a contingency plan for when the real estate market changed from a sellers market - which is inevitable in any economy. Instead of having a plan B in the wings or pivoting in real time to adjust to the new market, they kept going with the same old product that no longer served the market. Then they blamed the sales team and management at all levels for this. The issue was an outdated product that didn't keep up with the market fluctuations. We had some extremely exceptional salespeople. They lied about how much money they had - to the employees, the board and their investors. Stay far, far away. As long as Shaival Shah has anything to do with this company, it will fail. He seems charming but he is cut throat and manipulative.
