Pros

I made it out alive and you can too.

Cons

Hostile work environment. Their motto is "it doesn't matter if we build houses or helicopters we will sell them." They don't put door bells in their houses, they value engineer their slabs and inject the soil, no plaster coat, no top soil under the sod, only one RG6 homerun to the house, cheap product all around. You are a fool if you work for these people and a complete idiot if you buy from them. They will be either sued, bankrupt, or bought out by a company that knows how to run a business within five years. Sell your shares now!

We pride ourselves on quality and integrity, so your feedback is something we take seriously. That motto is certainly not a reflection of our company, nor is it in any way the LGI Way. Our construction manual and procedures ensure a high-quality product and customer experience, and we are proud to build and sell LGI homes. We hope you shared any specific feedback during your exit interview, as we take feedback from current and former employees very seriously. Best of luck.

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!!!
