Company of the Week

Turning the head of the Croc towards the real estate market this week, we have the Lennar Corporation. The EDGAR 10-k filings reveal a lot, including some corporate anxiety about various "slow growth" initiatives across the US hurting the bottom line, so alert your friends working on those campaigns that they have found a pressure point.

Also, there has been a lot of press coverage in the Bay Area by the SF Bay Guardian regarding extortion, problems with asbestos and retaliation against whistleblowers.

A very interesting company, things keep turning up. If you want to cover the environmental record, labor rights history or other aspects of this company's operations, get in touch with the Project Manager so we can coordinate efforts. The Wikipedia page on Lennar is lacking at the moment, so it is likely that this profile will get some attention.
