Pros

Great people, fantastic diverse work culture ... like none other I have ever experienced! Dedicated to employee moral. Very structured training program (love it) - nothing left out and not overwhelming. Warm, professional environment. Plenty of community volunteer opportunities.

Cons

One horrible employee with the personality that will suck the life out of your day. From my first on the job, other employees pointed him out. But he was useful (no more than other employees), so I cannot for the life of me understand why he couldn't be fired.

Pros

Phenomenal 8% match for 401k, higher base salary than industry standard (lower com. %) David Weekely himself seems great, too bad his values are not being carried out.

Cons

Heavy emphasis on team, when team means being part of the GOB in your area and not speaking out against very inappropriate behavior. Your trainer may very well be someone who is assigned as your mentor that is a competing coworker. Hopefully they won't set you up to fail and leave out key elements of the position. Sales is disposable and you must be willing to be talked down to by builders or project coordinator if they do not like you or are in a bad mood. They are the employees that are valued. If you blow the whistle on unethical behavior of a tenured employee, you will pay the price severely in backlash. Politics are more important than anything, even more than your success with sales and customer satisfaction. You will have to fill out surveys via email that everyone knows are not confidential and say everything is great.
