Pros

Good benefits, especially the housing assistance benefit that helps you purchase a home with a forgiven loan after 3 years of service. Does a lot of work in the community to make housing affordable to everyone. Company offers paid days off to volunteer int he community.

Cons

Many decisions are made at the executive level and not communicated down respectfuly or within a reasonable amount of time. Also has ahistory of overloading the company with contractors to get through tought imes thus straining the budget and not being bale to fully invest in permanent employees. This leads to frequent downsizing on a yearly basis.

Pros

Great team and luckily for me great leadership in my direct line up to my SVP.

Cons

It’s horrifying how things have changed since Pulte took over. Layoffs, elimination of entire job categories but not the responsibilities of those jobs. It’s not just you work more because a teammate is gone, it’s do a completely different job while still doing you job plus all of your layed off coworkers job.
