Pros

Competitve Pay and Benefits. Good bonus structure in place, even when the company a loss quarter over quarter.

Cons

Good Old Boy System of Promoting from within. Inexperienced management who lack creative and strategic vision. Tend to hire from failing mortgage companies, e.g. Countrywide. Foreclosure is the first option, not the last.

Pros

The culture is more supportive than competitive/toxic; quite decent work-life balance; good benefits - especially 401k; heavy emphasis on utilization of AI to support most job functions but with risk and safety in mind.

Cons

Changes are quite fast-paced and growth can be slow. Experience can be very team, project, and division specific as with any big company.
