      Pros

      I worked with some amazing people at Fischer Homes. If you work hard and are a considerate person, you'll receive recognition for your hardwork which is something that cannot be said about most employers. There are many opportunities within the company, but it does take time to achieve them. Tim McMahon (COO) is one of the most approachable people I've ever had the pleasure to work with.

      Cons

      The downside is benefits and pay. Yes, employees are expensive, but you need to be aggressive when it comes to keeping your rockstar talent and bringing talent onboard. Why should it take six months to receive a day of vacation? Treat your employees like the adults that they are and give them more vacation time without having to wait a year to get it.

      Pros

      Fischer Homes has had the ability to grow to its greatest levels over the past several years, a remarkable feat given the state of the housing industry during that time. Nearly all other large builders were leaving markets, but Fisher Homes expanded. Founded on integrity and doing what is right in all areas gives Fischer Homes it's rock-solid foundation. Great place to work.

      Cons

      The homebuilding industry itself is a high-energy, high demand arena. That's not for everyone.

      Cheap company. Low pay. No investment in employee retention. Terrible upper management.

      Pros

      They worked with my schedule when I needed to come in late, leave early ect. Most of the entry level to mid-management level employees are amazing. Seriously great people and many of them I call friends. Unless there was some major project going on I didn't have to work any crazy hours.

      Cons

      Most of the upper management has been with the company for a long time. This does NOT make them good leaders or directors. I'm pretty sure one director in particular can't walk and chew bubble gum at the same time. Almost all of management falls into one of two categories. They either micro manage everything or they don't do any management at all. The benefits aren't very good. The 401(k) "match" is something like 50% on the first 2% but it takes 5-7 years to become 100% vested and 1-2 years to get any match at all. Those numbers are estimates; I don't remember the exact percentages. The pay seems to be ~$10-20K less than industry average and don't hold out for a raise. My raise ended up being less than a $50/month increase. Unless your last name is Fischer, you don't get much. The average employment with the company seems to be less than 3 or 4 years if you aren't a Sales Counselor and less than a year if you are a Sales Counselor.
