Strong mission but toxic positivity and underpaid staff

Anonymous employee
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Mission statement and company values are used in everyday vernacular and everyone knows them. There is an emphasis on constantly improving yourself and the company. The amount of opportunities for recognition was nice but totally dependent on if your management liked you or not.

Cons

The positivity is almost at a toxic level. The office managers are the glue that holds the offices together yet they are the most underpaid and least recognized employees.

MUST READ!! Avoid at all costs!

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!!!
