Extremely difficult environment

Pros

Local divisions can be better environments than company overall. If you work for Beazer it serves as a paycheck while you find a company that has a quality environment and opportunity for career and longevity.

Cons

Fear based corporate culture. Corporate bullying and public belittling of employees. Senior management routinely threatens employees. Very high turnover at all levels, including VPs and above. Open corporate distrust of division personnel. Lots of screaming, ranting, scrambling and reactionary environment.

Top-down tyranny

Pros

Nothing positive to share.

Cons

The company is run by a numbers-oriented man without thought, care or empathy for real hard-working people. The pressure to perform at unreasonable standards was intense. It's fight (or back stab) or flight (resign or get fired) here. If you're not "in" with the "right" people, then you're out the first chance they get to cut you. Mid-level management is quick to throw employees under the bus to save themselves. On top of all this, they build a terrible home. Cutting corners is the norm. Underpaying or failing to pay trade workers doesn't equate to quality work. I would not buy a Beazer home knowing what I know.

Pros

Decent health insurance covered by the employer. Corporate pays for a decent training experience in Atlanta with a chance to meet the almighty APM (Alan Merrill), narcissus incarnate serving as CEO.

Cons

Top down, Beazer is run as a tyrannical structure that allows little to no room for error or bad impressions. Management locally makes land acquisition decisions that can make or break a sales agent's career. If management does not approve of your suggestions or attitude, they will dismiss you without so much as a courteous two week notice. No coaching, encouragement, or conference is available to improve employee morale/performance...whichever happens to be lacking. To succeed, you must submit wholeheartedly to your division president, the CEO, CMO, and sales VP. Don't like our way? Goodbye!
