Pros

The work life balance is great. Career development is good IF you are motivated. The pay is still excellent. Co-workers are friendly, it's not a cut-throat or high stress environment compared to a lot of other jobs. Work can be challenging or boring depending on your group.

Cons

A lot of the benefits of working here that were amazing such as free executive MBA degree education, stock options (now worthless), job security (virtually none in this climate) are now gone. A lot of folk here lack ambition and are pay check collectors with a sense of entitlement and mediocre abilities.

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.
