One of the best companies I've ever worked for

Director (Former Employee)
Los Angeles, CA

I worked at Lennar full-time for more than 7 years

ProsSome of the smartest people I ever worked for and some of the most professional. Put those together in a good culture and you've got a great place to work.

ConsThe real estate market didn't hold up long enough.

Advice to Senior ManagementFind ways to incorporate more employee feedback.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Ok, but don't expect any form of job security or incentives.

Construction Manager (Former Employee)
Chantilly, VA

I worked at Lennar full-time for more than 3 years

ProsGreat place to start in residential construction when times are good. Plenty of job perks like vehicle allowance, bonuses for JD Power surveys, and meeting deadlines.

ConsPerks and bonuses have all gone now, and there is more responsibility with less time and resources to do your job well. Stress level throughout the company is very high.

Advice to Senior ManagementDon't pull back on your promises, and don't take away time and resources from your staff and expect greater performance.

Division Controller

Division Controller (Former Employee)

I worked at Lennar full-time for more than 3 years

ProsDirector of Audit should be running this company!

ConsQuirky (at best) culture - having a wall outside your office (stuart miller) listing everyone that's recited the "red chicken" poem - read Dr. Suess to board of directors when acquiring US Home Corp - REALLY???? Everyone's a member of the family until times get tough. Stuart Miller and senior financial people all have egos that are beyond belief.

Advice to Senior ManagementBeyond help.

Good company, but doesn't appreciate employees in down market

Project Manager (Current Employee)
Riverside, CA

I have been working at Lennar full-time for more than 10 years

ProsThe company builds an outstanding product that I am proud of. Their integrity is outstanding and the culture (although recently not a priority) is still important.

ConsLike many companies, upper-level management has taken advantage of their leverage in a poor job market by neglecting employees. Bonuses are now only shared with those with VP titles.

Advice to Senior ManagementShow more appreciation for employees who have toughed things out during difficult times.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
