Pros

Clayton is a great company to work for. Higher ups definitely do a great job on making you feel heard and appreciated. Great work life balance if you learn to keep work at work. Company definitely prioritizes time off. Good benefit plan. Lots of opportunities to move up or branch out.

Cons

Pay and commission structure isn’t bad but can be improved with some slight tweaks.

Pros

pretty easy, not too tough

Cons

you had to be a mini loan processor, meaning you had to keep up with the requirements of the loan to help customers get those to their lender. you also had to be a project manager, helping coordinate the contractors with prepping the customers home sites.

Pros

They pay you every week - although it’s paid a week behind.

Cons

Toxic environment because execs lie. Search for lawsuits against Clayton Homes and you’ll see an example of what’s going on around here. They are fake to your face and gossip behind your back. I hear what they say and it’s really bad. They try to make people quit just because some “higher up,” gets mad about something small (someone “wasn’t respectful enough,” in an email). If the person doesn’t quit, the execs make up stuff and lay off the person or fire them for no reason. Then they try telling the rest of us that “it was for the person’s benefit,” and “they were happy to leave.” Riiight. They also try to expand and don’t do it right. They shut down an office in TX for title and escrow business, and tried to tell us it just didn’t work out. We all know it’s because they didn’t want to follow the rules. We hear them talking about it in office and it really makes us think they don’t care about us as people. They just want to use us. Better to find work elsewhere and not waste precious time here. They lie about cheap insurance, company plans, etc. They even lie about stuff going on with our parent company and how it’s affecting us here. Bad things are happening!
