Pros

New Home Star is a great place to grow your career and meet great people along the way! If you speak up about things that you'd like to see changed or concerns, they will take it into consideration and it really feels like your voice is being heard.

Cons

Not so much a con, but the company is growing rapidly and while we are creating more sales opportunities I would love to see similar growth to the corporate office and the career path within the corporate office!

Thank you for your review! We truly appreciate the positive feedback about your employment journey with New Home Star. Your review assures us that we are fulfilling our core value of providing excellent careers for our people. A vital component of that core value is to ensure our employees feel seen and heard, especially as we continue to grow. While we don't have a defined career path for each department within our Corporate office, we are committed to advancing our Corporate employees. Each department is still relatively small. We create new roles based on the needs and gaps identified within each department, creating opportunities for promotions and carving out career paths as we grow. Eventually, we will have defined career paths for each department. You're part of the team paving the way forward for future employees! Thank you for your review!

Pros

There are no pros to working here

Cons

This company preys on inexperienced sales people and pays them less than half of the industry standard. By the time the new hires figure it out, they already have too much money entangled in "future commissions" to walk away. The company will constantly lie and change the rules to keep digging their greedy paws into your earned commissions. They treat their employees like slaves, demanding that you be available 24/7, while paying them 0.75% commission on real estate transactions, sales agents can make at LEAST 2% selling homes anywhere else without having to worry about their employer taking their commissions from them, there is no reason to ever apply or work here. They will also constantly shove their political beliefs down your throat so if you do apply here, I hope you have the same views as them, otherwise good luck.

Thank you for providing honest feedback about your employment experience. New Home Star strives to create a culture that puts employees first, and our number one core value is to provide excellent careers for our people. Our executive leadership team reads these reviews, takes the feedback to heart, and thinks about how we can apply the feedback. In response to your review, we feel it's important to point out that New Home Star has many tenured employees. You described yourself above as being employed with us for 5-7 years. Pyramid schemes, lies, stealing commissions, treating employees like slaves, forcing beliefs on employees... It's hard to believe that anyone would stay employed with us for any extended length of time under the working conditions you've described. We want to learn more and understand how your experience unfolded. We urge you to reach out to humanresources@newhomestar.com so we can get a detailed account of your experience.

Pros

At NHS we are a family and everyone is so supportive. The training is out of this world. We have a portal with thousands of training resources. There is lots of room to grow and move up which is amazing.

Cons

I would love to see more steps in the career path or classes like LDP/MENSA allowing people not quite ready to be a sales manager or director opportunities to grow. Especially, if they don't get into MENSA or LDP.
