Pros

I guess if you just want work-life balance this could be good for you.

Cons

If you're a software developer who actually wants to grow, build meaningful products, or use your degree in a serious way—Lennar is not the place. Work is extremely slow and you get dragged into numerous daily meetings that felt performative and rarely produced anything of substance. Most projects I worked on didn't even go into production and can be best described as internal side quests that lacked real purpose. The projects that did make it to production seem rather trivial and pointless. You won't be building something exciting, You won't be building anything complex, You'll probably be building a low-quality chat bot for a weird internal use case. They force you to build in a low-code/no-code environment as well. I especially do not recommend new grads to this opportunity as you will effectively learn nothing useful for your SWE career. The culture is extremely corporate and does not operate like a tech firm at all. You need to wear business casual everyday and wear a badge as well. It feels like the company cares a lot more about how you present yourself rather than the actual work that gets done. In my opinion, HR at the company is a complete facade, constantly pushing pointless self-development sessions and corporate buzzword-filled workshops that do nothing to improve real growth. From a tech perspective, Lennar is a hollow shell of a company—desperate to brand itself as innovative, but completely lacking the culture, tools, and leadership to support real software development. It slaps a 'tech' label on low-code tools, while hindering engineers with useless processes, corporate theatrics, and a total absence of vision. Stay away if you want to advance your career and actually use your computer science degree for what it's meant to be used for.

Pros

you will have a flexible schedule most of the year.

Cons

It is difficult to trust the people you work with, as they are incentivised to get you to sign off on things, whether they are done or not.

Pros

Was able to do many different jobs and learn a bunch of different departments.

Cons

Management is out of touch with reality. Used to be a great company to work for and they truly cared about their people. It is so unprofessional, micro managed, too many middle managers and no one can make a decision to save their life. The stress, political bs is overwhelming. They spend a ton of money on creating programs and then never get to the users. Everyone they have a new CTO it is major disruption and they always bad mouth the last person that was in the seat. Then they go back to what was done 10 years ago.
