Pros

Great Health Benefits, Incentives for high performing sales employees

Cons

The mass efforts placed onto whoo-ing employees and customers alike - using company sell. Cult-like culture. Offer below standard pay scale within the area for non-sales employees. No work-life balance, discourtesy of personal time/time off. Misleading propagandize messages from upper management/corporate. Poor communication. The use of bullying/scare tactics from corporate executives. Discrete micromanagement. A lot of focus on minuscule/irrelevant office procedures - office politics (i.e. types of highlighters, font style, size, alignment, color, caps used in documents). Unethical behavior and sheer disrespect is a common phenomenon.

Thank you for the review. Your feedback is disappointing, as it is not a reflection of our company culture. We truly believe that Sales Consultants are the most important employees at LGI Homes, and we reward accordingly. A comprehensive benefits package, uncapped bonus structure, opportunities for employee recognition, and a sales vacation bonus are just a few perks that we offer Sales Consultants. We appreciate the time you took to leave the review, and thank you again for the feedback. Best of luck.
