    KB Home Forward Planner:   (Current Employee)

    Pros

    People care
    Decent compensation
    Professional management - compared to the family-run hacks elsewhere

    Cons

    Tough decisions are put off
    Terrible industry right now
    Management shows very little trust of employees
    When's the market coming back?

    Advice to Senior Management

    Stay the course! You've got a plan to make money again, and the worse thing would be to deviate from it at this point.
