Pros

Fun place to work. Local managers are great - compensation can be excellent as well.

Cons

The pay can be great but you have to be placed in a good community in order to do well. Some communities are much easier to sell than others which makes it impossible to achieve sales goals or make as much as your coworkers. There is a wide range of what the community managers make and they don't move people around very often so if you're not in a good community you have to stick it out. It is also difficult to have any kind of work/life balance - especially if you have a family. Very HIGH turnover rate. All of their training has become strictly AI videos that they prepare you to memorize and be able to recite.

Pros

None that I can think of unless your thing is costumes, candy and overall FLUFF

Cons

Where do I begin? New Home Star is the guru of used-car builder reps! From scripted sales pitches to balloon and bubble-gum popping sales meetings. Costumes and candy-throwing “managers” to training that would make anyone with anything above a GED convulse in laughter over the ridiculousness of it David Rice tries to paint himself as the Maserati of sales training, management and service. What, in reality he has done, is just parced together a bunch of sales books he read and then re-packaged. And the result is just…gross. When you develop an ounce of knowledge in this business, you realize he is just a hack who has made his business on empty promises. I say that because my builder got lured in by the promises…and then kicked them out as soon as the contract was over. If your interest is in a professional sales team, do not spend a dime with this company!!!!!!

Pros

Working here has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. The culture is positive, collaborative, and inspiring—every day I feel like I’m part of something bigger than myself. Leadership leads with both vision and heart, and the faith-based values show through in how people are treated with respect and integrity. Training and development opportunities are excellent, and there’s a clear path for advancement if you’re driven to grow. The company’s vision is exciting and forward-thinking, and it makes me proud to contribute to its success. It’s rare to find a workplace where culture, leadership, professional growth, and values are all aligned—but this is that place. Truly amazing

Cons

None. Truly an amazing place to work.
