Pros

The compensation package I recieved was very competitive. The upper management in the greenville office is very talented and they see changes in the market very early, which keeps them out in front of the pack. They also build a quality home, compared to most national and regional builders. They offer custom quality at a track builder price.

Cons

Poor decisions at the corporate level created cash flow problems for the better performing markets. Unfortunately, this created limited resources for the strong markets and subsequent lay-offs were needed to stay competitive in a struggling market. Although the local staff valued some employees that had to be let go, the feeling of being "just a number" remained.

Advice to Senior Management

Keep a good cash position and focus on A+ properties with high lot and home yields in all markets. Limit development in a bad market and concentrate on exceptional lot values from 3rd party developers.
