Pros

Unlimited earning potential, not micro managed when I was there, decent product for buyers who aren't interested or can't afford to go with a builder where you can choose your own options, etc. This is strictly a SPEC product, which could be a pro or con. Easier for agents with no upgrades, equals less paperwork, less potential problems. Decent benefits.great marketing gal Samantha. She so helpful and kind.

Cons

Commission only, however if you've been in sales this is normal and shouldn't detour you. Spec only, NO CHANGES PERIOD. so not a product for buyers who must pick out their own colors, fixtures, flooring, etc. Or if they want to make structural changes or upgrades. Again not a fit. Lots of drams within sales team. However if you lay low and do not feed it or join it, it shouldn't affect you. They are new to tulsa, about 4 years I believe. So all their processes and systems seem like their still wanting to or needing to tweak. Make sure you try and get in a neighborhood with at least some walk in traffic, it's not realistic to sell solely on your realtor contacts..ive been in new home sales in California for 7 years.

Pros

Great place to learn the process of home building. Many different career paths to choose from within the company.

Cons

Management is extremely catty. The decision is divided into teams, within the different teams there are little cliques just like in highschool. Almost like the movie Mean Girls. If you don't "fit in" life will be more "difficult" for you or you get overworked, harassed, or they make you want to quit. Was not made clear to me upon entering the company that the bonuses that we might get quarterly added to your salary total get taxed 49% no matter if you get the "full" bonus amount sor not. Also verbal promises that were made on the way in do not get seen all the way through. Raises and transfers are almost non existent. Only if you are one of the chosen ones it seems like.

Pros

Great peple, fun, trips, highest paid role in the business

Cons

Non stop pressure, like a hamster wheel. If you want to make that kind of money, you better gett used to it. When they hired the new sales manager in our division she was in way over her head. They split the division, gave her more authority because her best friedn was the President, and all but 2 of her sales staff left within 6 months (like 15 pepole). That's almost impossible to get that many 30-40 somethings to walk away from 400-600 thousand dollar jobs, but she was that bad.
