Pros

I made over 100k a year

Cons

1. Work life balance is awful. 2. The leaders from the top down are scum bags. 3. The houses are the cheapest pieces of crap ever built. 4. I was once chewed out by the President of the company after selling my 5th home for the day for attaching a earnest money check to a folder with a paper clip because" its not the LGI way". In no way am I exaggerating about this. 5. The company has a very toxic culture. 6. I literally watched my boss eat boggers one day. 7. They make you waste your time doing repetitive sales training every week taught by managers who suck at selling. 8. Your customer base is mostly made up of people with trash credit. 9. You work in either the middle of nowhere or in the ghetto. 10. You will listen to repetitive cult like nonsense on a daily basis.

Pros

Absolutely none, terrible position unless you are in a "great" community. They build in crappy places and expect people to pay top dollar.

Cons

Stay far away! For this position you will be under paid and over worked. They guarantee sales people 500 leads minimum a year. What they don't tell you is that 98% are garbage. The other 2.99% are desperate people with some of the worst credit you've ever seen. Then you have the .01% that can actually purchase a home. And they expect a minimum of 18 closings for sales people. They want to run everything like it is in Texas but news flash, all markets are different. Some need a different approach. And no one will listen to someone who's been in the local market for years. Pre crash and post crash of 08. I told them exactly what to do to make us a producing market and it fell on deaf ears. Then I was promised a promotion for doubling my team size, community count and responsibilities. Then when the time came. They said nah. Systems based company? Yea ok. What a joke. Wasted 2 years of my life here and walked away from a blossoming career I already had on the promise of big money that never came. Stay as far away as you can!!!
