Pros

1. Good pay. 2. you are your own boss for the most part. 3. Lots of vacation days to take after 5 years.

Cons

As the company navigates it's way through this down economy after laying off about 80% of the work force "we are asked to do the job of 5 plus employees without receiving any extra compensation. We have lost bonus money and no raises have been giving out for 4 years. Also as field construction employee you are left out of most company functions. The past for years has been very stagnant place to work with no light at the end of the tunnel as far as advancement or salary increases. All in all you get the feeling that the company could care less.

Pros

They are family oriented. You work with fantastic people. They have a work hard, have fun attitude. They're flexible with your schedule if you need time off.

Cons

Some of the HR policies seem a little antiquated. The benefits aren't the best either, but you pretty much take what you can get.

Pros

Compensation can be good if you're in a good community, especially if you exceed your quota. Health benefits are ok. Nice coworkers.

Cons

If you're stuck in a bad community, I hope you have a lot of savings, because you might just sit there forever. Management is slow to make changes while you starve to death. They do not share information with you either, so you are left to wonder if you'll ever get help or get moved. No weekends off and very little work/life balance, but that's new homes for you!
