Pros

Their contract system is very easy.

Cons

I cannot speak for the other divisions however CHICAGO if filled now with unethical management. They use bully tactics, fear tactics and micro managing tactics on you. There is also a TON of favoritism here. It's clear which communities are selling and which are not. And all the veterans are the ones in the better areas. Or you have kissed a lot of " you know what" .This place is a revolving door. It has been going down hill for a year or two now. Do your research and consider another market ( state, division ) before considering this one. The sales reps are backstabbing liars. As well as management so I would only recommend to my worst enemy. Oh it is also now 100% commission in a volatile market. So GOOD LUCK having food to eat and a roof over your head. You can go months without a sale. Your also competing against your own coworkers. They have the same floorplans in communities very close to each other with price differences of roughly $30k. So not only are you competing with competitor builders, but you are also competing with YOUR OWN COMPANY! Now they also have a ton of dead communities and yet, they are opening new ones still? At first you would think that doesnt make sense. But when you see it from their perspective, they want to find more honey pots to carry the division. All the while not carrying your pocket. Oh and management stays hush hush over your bonuses! There are tactics at play here that are beyond unprofessional. They will pretend they know what they are doing by blasting you with key words. But this division hires the cheapest managers and clearly they are getting what they pay for! If you WANT HORTON to your research and find a division with as little negative reviews as possible. GOOD LUCK!

Pros

You get paid well. The more you care, the better the reputation you will create and the better the clients will be.

Cons

Depending on community you get it can be more of a grind and take some time to get it running the way it needs to be. The drive to a community may be far from your house.

Amazing team environment. Pay and benefits are very strong as well. They take care of their employees.

Be expected to put in more than just the typical 9-5 work schedule.
