Pros

Other than a few colleagues that I got to know outside my department, there are none.

Cons

Zero room for creativity in the marketing department. Everything is cut and paste making it closer to an admin role. Terrible management. Division President cared about her money and nothing else. Very low quality product compared to other builders in New Mexico. No work/life balance for a salaried position.

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.

Pros

High volume sales and great pay

Cons

They work you like a slave, there is no work-life balance, and most people end up divorced and in the hospital due to the insane amount of stress. Average tenure is 3 years for this position, but if you can stick it out for 3 years, it's potentially life-changing money. They have intentionally created an environment where only the strong survive. Have an exit-strategy and a back up plan for when things hit the fan.
