Not what it use to be

Pros

Great earning potential in sales if you are a hustler and get a good manager/area. You can meet a lot of great people and benefits are good.

Cons

It use to be a great company but their original niche is no longer sustainable so they are changing their processes every week to adapt to industry standards and are 10 years behind the competition. Company doesn’t provide sales staff with a basic CRM causing hours of extra paper work instead of focusing on sales. They are not open to feedback or critical thinking. I recently heard an upper manager say they hadn’t had an original thought in 10 years! If you enjoy being underpaid, undervalued and overworked then apply today! There is a big disconnect between corporate and the field. There are times where you won’t have inventory to close for months and stacking debt for a corporation is no bueno. Some really great talent has left because of corporate ignorance.

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!!!

Company Falling Apart

Pros

nothing to think of in 2025 going in 2026

Cons

Everything, run away don't buy into the "company sell" where you are shown less that 4-5% of the sales team's earning in the ENTIRE company and get told that everyone here makes it, where EVERYONE has been quitting and the stock is down to $40 a share after getting pressured to buy more and more in every "Goals" meeting with your manager that is a guard between you and any comms about your deals, we don't take outside lending, don't pay realtors and look for ways to say "oh the client reached out before so we won't pay you" and losing relations is LGI number 1 goal now, sleazy managers that lie all the time, you are sup[posed to do sales and loan officer jobs as well; income calls and collecting of docs (which is not ok unless you are the licensed loan officer) it's like the CEO and COO are betting against the company and shorting it or something by keeping the current managers and hiring new ones that either quite right away or they get demoted to sales..
