Pros

Entry into residential home building

Cons

Constant relocation across a city on new subdivisions, which can constantly can add to your commute and gas expense. Making a teacher's salary after 4 years of employment, no vehicle allowance, uneducated middle management, project managers have a chip on there shoulder and are not down to earth! Being a PM at David Weekley is like being a Manager at McDonald's... There is always a few "Manager Trainiees" and it is a 8-10 year process. due to less than 94% DWR. David Weekley makes the most profit out of all home builders yet pay there employees and subcontractors the least in the industry, no subs want to work with the bad reputation of no pay and getting burned on jobs.

Pros

Big Company with lots of buying power, great benefits, well funded. Great accounting and benefit support from Corporate Office, overall culture is good!

Cons

Corporate design and IT are terrible. Systems are outdated and not user friendly. Corporate will not admit when something does not work! Culture at a local level does not match what corporate sells! Low salary, and overall compensation is 20 to 30% below market. Tenured employees do not embrace new employees or change. Senior management at local level is very out of touch with employees.
