Pros

Headquarters is across the street from the Woodlands Mall and it's nice to be able to go over there at lunch time... when you GET a lunch break.

Cons

Absolutely no work/life balance. They have no respect for your personal time and just automatically assume you have no life and can work until 9pm (or later) every single night. I also did not like the cult-like atmosphere. There are people who work there who say the cheesy catch phrases like they are ingrained into their soul. They say these phrases without even thinking... like robots. My advice to you is: If you love your family and want to eat dinner with them at night, don't work here; if you enjoy helping your children at night with their homework, don't work here; if you have older parents that need extra attention, don't work here; and if you do not like the taste of Kool-Aid, don't work here.

Thank you for the review. As a former employee, you know that we embrace a rich company culture here at LGI Homes. You are absolutely correct - you will hear many culture points and phrases referred to around our offices each day. This is something we are extremely proud of, as our employees are true ambassadors of the LGI Way, living out our culture on a daily basis. We are disappointed to hear that this was not a mutual fit. We are concerned regarding your comments about work/life balance, as working each day past 9pm is not a true reflection of life at Corporate. We hope you expressed these concerns during your exit interview with HR so they can be addressed with the proper management. We strive to maintain a supportive work environment ensuring employees have all the tools to succeed, as well as stay happy and healthy. Best of luck in the future!

Pros

Great company culture and benefits! Tons of quality leads with zero start-up costs. Management is only there to support your goals, no micro managing

Cons

Due to the amount of mass marketing the company does we tend to have bottom of the barrel buyers/leads.
