Pros

The leaders of the division put extra time and effort into making the internship experience worthwhile for you. They are willing to let you go at your own pace and to learn hands-on job experience.

Cons

Difficult to dive straight into connections with the trade partners. The Superintendent has every contact and it takes time to integrate that into the work phone. Also, the intern position is temporary and so some connections with management of our trade partners is difficult to get going.

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.
