Pros

Several high level leaders are very knowledgeable, great trainers and are great at making you think they care about your success.

Cons

Unfortunately, once you're out of Houston these leaders lose visibility and don't seem to care about the work environment as long as the numbers are met. So, it's really all lip service to what we call our "core values." The management team I work with lie, lack integrity and are unethical. They often create a story line to fit a narrative and are able to get away with it due to little oversight from the division president. It's an mistrustful environment with very little teamwork.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Your feedback regarding management’s behavior is certainly not a reflection of our company core values. We take your comments very seriously, so we hope you will reach out to the HR team with any behavior that does not meet the LGI standards of Integrity and ethical behavior. The door is always open. Thanks again.

Thank you for the review. We are glad that you are enjoying the rapid growth we are experiencing at LGI. We are disappointed to hear that you feel a lack of work/life balance. Vacation, holiday, personal time, and sales vacation bonuses are just some incentives LGI provides employees to ensure they stay happy and healthy. We encourage you to take advantage of these opportunities. Thanks again for the feedback, we appreciate your hard work.

Working at LGI is the best decision I've ever made!

Pros

LGI is a haven for top performers. The company is full of top quality people in all roles, across the country. The CEO and COO know everyone by name and personally train all new sales people. Constant training and process improvement lead to ever improving results and opportunities. The growth of the company has been astronomical and very well managed. There is an amazing company culture that leadership is genuinely committed to. Best place I've ever worked hands down. Headhunters call me weekly and it's EASY to say that I'm not interested. It's easy to wake up and go to work every morning because I love my job and the people I work with and for. If you are genuinely ambitious and have an open mind, this is the place for you!

Cons

None. Having an open mind will be your key to success here. If you don't buy in to the culture, you will struggle. The culture is genuine and not superficial as mentioned in some other reviews on this site.
