Pros

Benefits and co-workers are wonderful.

Cons

Management is mired in government, backstabbing, and incompetence. Often they use equal-opportunity vs. capability to promote. Found them to promote based on politics only.

Pros

Interesting work and exposure to significant changes going on within the housing industry. Company offers good salary and benefits, interesting work, and some great people to work with.

Cons

In recent years, it has been subject to constant change and there's been a revolving door at all levels. Work-life balance has become untenable. Workload is such that there is no way to be able to do a quality job, and staff is then blamed for the result. Many people managers have little in the way of management skill. Careers and promotions are based on office politics rather than skill and competence.
