Great Potential, Needs to Improve on Execution - Anonymous employee Howard Hughes Communities Employee Review

Pros

There are plenty of smart, talented people working for the company with a great pipeline of projects to work on. It is clear that the company is making strides to build a true company culture with the incredible effort put into Brand Marketing and People & Culture in the last two years. Shows that they are constantly looking to improve employee engagement with initiatives such as Hello Day and Discovery Tour.

Cons

In many ways, the company is still being run like a start up. The lack of processes (or illogical ones with 15 hoops to jump through) has crippled execution. When you are new, or even have been there for several years, and ask what certain processes are, you just get shoved around to several different departments with no definitive answer. Senior leadership needs to step up and set these in place. There is also no unified platform for employees to effectively communicate or share files (not even Slack), something they keep saying they're working on. Depending on your boss and dept, there can be a serious lack of work life balance in New York office.

Pros

Working at Howard Hughes is rewarding because the company is deeply committed to making a positive impact in the communities it develops. There’s a strong emphasis on thoughtful, sustainable growth and giving back through philanthropic efforts, which makes the work feel purposeful. It’s inspiring to be part of projects that don’t just build properties but create lasting value for residents and businesses. The company takes stewardship seriously, investing in green space, cultural initiatives, and community programs. If you want to be part of a team that prioritizes impact over just development, this is a great place to be.

Cons

While the work itself is meaningful, there’s room for improvement when it comes to leadership and internal communication. At times, the company’s specific business objectives can feel unclear, and more transparency from leadership would help employees feel more aligned with long-term goals. Strengthening internal communications could also help reinforce the company culture, ensuring that employees across all teams feel connected and engaged in the bigger picture.
