A typical day includes meetings that serve no purpose and multiple emails doing whatever sales counselors or assistants need from you.

Management is a mess here. Multiple 'managers' and VPs in departments and little amount of employees who do the actual work. Lots of micromanaging to the point that it takes forever for projects to launch.

Workplace culture is okay but lacking in diversity and is very clique heavy. You must have a smile plastered on your face 24-7 to 'fit in' here or others will avoid you.

The most enjoyable part of this job was putting in my resignation.

A typical day at work is managing trades, walking houses, calling or emailing buyers, responding emails, construction scheduling, sales meetings, meeting with buyers and realtors, handling warranties, making decisions that could impact the construction process, managing and maintaining the subdivision, ordering construction material, doing payroll, requesting PO, overseen the whole construction process of a home. I am not sure if there is any sort of culture other than to respect or treat others as you would like to be treated  and making sure our buyers are always happy with their new homes. The hardest part of this job is dealing with the weather and labor shortage. Most enjoyable part of this job is that I have the opportunity to work in an office and field setting.

The sales counselors are highly experienced and great to work with. They do not focus on high pressure sales but rather customer experience.  I have been fortunate in that I have been given a great deal of responsibility which is what I prefer.  There is no room for advancement though if you are a part time employee.  Every community has a different sales counselor who handles the process in their own unique way.  They are flexible with your schedule but part time is permitted 27 hours max per week and you usually have to work at least 1 weekend day.

While I worked at Highland Homes the environment is very cut throat, very immature. There is a huge lack of educated, trained, and fair management there. Preferential treatment runs rampant. If management does not like you or what you wear or who you talk to they will make sure you no longer work there. My overall review of this company is it is not a good company to work for.

It turned into a very toxic work place very fast. Management will target you and either force you to quit or terminate you over something silly. Management is not appropriate and boundaries and ethics are crossed. Forced hugs/forced prayer in meetings. They will limit how much you can sell, but award those that sold the most, knowing that they gave that specific limit out to sales. You are frowned upon to take your own earned PTO. 

The management does a pretty good job training and staying updated with your comfort levels and making you aware of your goal and help you to become successful. The healthcare is good and offer FSA. There are a few bad apples but majority are great people, it all depends on what department youre in.

This job has molded me into the detailed analytical personal I have become today. I love the challenge that comes with every financial statement and reconciliation. I managed an accounting department of 6 and was responsible for 21 companies and job costing for over 700 homes per year.
