Pros

Great benefits. Technology enjoys good training opportunities.

Cons

Too political and culture bottlenecks in some divisions. Ridiculously too many daily meetings in a day. Directors work as project managers and micro manage work. Other levels can't make any decisions. Business decisions are drag, lack accountability, leadership, timeliness to respond, and laden with political, process overheads. New joinees should be careful. Management hires and portrays false image and is not clear what they want. They lack accountability and credibility and work in groups, coterie of old favorites. After couple of years be prepared to get fired. Basically a company that has a use and throw policy and boot licking works heavily. Company survives with lots of contractors. Management is easy to make junior staff a scapegoat for failures. Company lacks career opportunities.

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.
