Pros

Horton is a great company to make a load of money. They put a ton of inventory homes on the ground so you have homes to show prospects and homes to close quickly. There is little micromanagement. Laid back friendly work environment. Great homes, floor plans and features. Fast growing builder that is always buying new land. Not a ton of secret shops or checks and balances, they trust their employess to perform.

Cons

Not a ton of support from management. Unorganized corporate office with no real procedures in place. Limited options when it comes to making changes to homes to please prospective buyers. Long hours. Poor training program for Jr. Sales agents. Stressful due to the amount of responsibilities put on the sales people. You have to be extremely organized and manage your own business and solve your own problems, because you are on your own! You must do all this while keeping your buyers happy because if they complain, management will not have your back. No matter what, its the sales teams fault.

Pros

The homeowners hands down. They were the reason why I was excited to go to work every day. And the trades for wanting to make me happy and proud. And I was chasing to chance to promote a the first 4 years in and found out I had no chance so gave up on that one. But pay was very good

Cons

Everything else! Bullied, not appreciated, treated like I was the one expected to clean up everyone’s mess and train but not ever compensated or promoted. People starting get paid the same as people that have been there 8 years. If you’re the worst builder you are the one that gets promoted. The better you are at your job then that’s what you will be doing. And other supers can steal from other employees and get caught by trades smoke weed and nothing will be done. And watch your pay, they will cheat you anytime they can. They make us pay our own toilet paper, soap, paper towels,water, and any supplies if we eat at the office. If we use our own power tools and if any batteries or replacements parts are needed we supply them. So much corruption there.
