Pros

Company has a quality product that is worth standing behind. They build beautiful homes and put a lot of care into what is being presented to the marketplace.

Cons

Advancement is extremely limited. There is a mentality of “I hired you to do a specific job because that’s the job I need you to do” and with this mentality on-going training opportunities and preparation for a next role run the spectrum of extremely limited to nonexistent depending on how hard you try personally to succeed professionally. The tenured employees at the corporate office have been doing the same role for many years and with that comes a lack of natural advancement for younger employees. Compensation and benefits are less than desirable. Only one week of vacation is allotted for the entire first year, which can be borrowed from the second year after you have been with the company for six months. This is not conducive to adulthood.

Pros

Benefits; excellent 401k options, profit sharing, bonuses. Peers are knowledgable and friendly. Management isn't overbearing and wants you to succeed.

Cons

None. I mean there could be more PTO and Holidays but it's the standard rate, so not really a complaint.

Pros

Decent money when the market was good. That’s all over now.

Cons

Fischer recruits new hires at Universities because they see new graduates as moldable and naive. No matter who you are, you can do better than this company. They operate by one principle- corporate greed. They will promise you big things but the numbers they will show that you will earn are not reflective of what you will actually make in today’s downturned market. Management and trainers are cult-like. This job will destroy your mental health, all to simply line the pockets of the old white men who run the company. Just don’t do it.
