What do you like about working at KB Home?

"Great back office support. Construction staff and customer service is also great."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Make sure to fight for a good community. If you don't you will be making the minimum draw of $30K."

What don't you like about working at KB Home?

"If you don't get into a good selling community you will not make any money. 100% commission sales on a graduated scale. Management makes you write contracts even if client doesn't qualify for a loan. Then you take a cancel on the contract making it difficult to move up the commission scale."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Help sales counselors make commissions rather than fight them on writing contracts that will never go through."
