Not a good place to work

Pros

The only pro to working there is a paycheck every two weeks

Cons

If you work in the field (construction or warranty department) be prepared to do the work of 2-3 people with little to no support or accountability from management. Incompetent, arm chair management throughout the company especially in the construction and warranty departments. Constant problems with underperforming,bottom feeder contractors and vendors that Management does absolutely nothing about, in fact if you’re a really bad contractor Drees will reward you with more work. Poor,overpriced health insurance. Low salary increases that are never close to current cost of living. Bonus programs are a joke,especially if you’re in the Builder position. Terrible morale and frequent turnover in construction and warranty departments. Don’t be fooled by Drees bought&paid for awards of “best managed company” and “a great place to work”, if you’re looking for a field position in residential home building, do yourself a big favor and apply elsewhere

Pros

The company was great. Long hiring process. You're surrounded by good local people. Production managers in corporate Kentucky and Dallas That You Don't See everyday, push numbers and production that are unfair and set you up for failure so that they can get their bonus money on record years

Cons

Production managers in Kentucky and mid region. All they do is crunch numbers. Even though you have a record year with record profit, and you close $20 million dollars worth of product, they say that's not good enough because they are not local. They are squeezing blood from turnips, and need to be replaced
