Pros

Company paid lunch every Thursday.

Cons

You are told you can be the “captain of your own ship”. This is not true. You will be micromanaged to no end. The pay is the lowest in the industry for construction. I was always told “everyone loves it here and people don’t leave once they get in here”. Once you leave, you realize that almost every Homebuilder is better than this place. Monthly goal sessions can be beneficial but they want you to open up about your personal life. They say it’s because they “genuinely” care about you as a person. But once you are gone, everyone is instructed to lose contact with you. That’s really genuine. This is the worst run company I have ever seen. I saw another review saying they sell you on hopes and dreams. That is 100% accurate. Promise you the world but don’t come close to delivering. (Unless you are willing to become a robot) This company will take take take, and give very little.

Pros

Absolutely none, terrible position unless you are in a "great" community. They build in crappy places and expect people to pay top dollar.

Cons

Stay far away! For this position you will be under paid and over worked. They guarantee sales people 500 leads minimum a year. What they don't tell you is that 98% are garbage. The other 2.99% are desperate people with some of the worst credit you've ever seen. Then you have the .01% that can actually purchase a home. And they expect a minimum of 18 closings for sales people. They want to run everything like it is in Texas but news flash, all markets are different. Some need a different approach. And no one will listen to someone who's been in the local market for years. Pre crash and post crash of 08. I told them exactly what to do to make us a producing market and it fell on deaf ears. Then I was promised a promotion for doubling my team size, community count and responsibilities. Then when the time came. They said nah. Systems based company? Yea ok. What a joke. Wasted 2 years of my life here and walked away from a blossoming career I already had on the promise of big money that never came. Stay as far away as you can!!!
