Pros

Part of large publicly traded homebuilder, Lennar, with significant brand recognition that may or may not be an advantage in commercial real estate. The company is fairly entrepreneurial for its size even though it is plagued by all the bureaucracy that comes with any large organization.

Cons

Lennar Commercial (LC) is the commercial real estate division of Lennar Homes. LC lacks any strategic direction whereby all the failings to develop leadership, organization, strategy, resources, and capability are placed squarely on the employee to overcome, no matter what the circumstances or how ridiculous the objective is. Without any strategic vision or coherent organization, Lennar Commercial is a directionless, frenetic place reflecting the personalities of the leadership. Without a mission, shared values, or common goals to guide the team, the leadership is dictatorial, mercurial, impatient, and capricious. Despite what could be overwhelming financial, brand, and synergistic resources provided by the parent company, Lennar Commercial lacks any strategy or vision to deploy such resources in any effective way or to position itself in a manner that would differentiate itself from its competitors.

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.
