Pros

Spacious office, benefits at par with other good companies even though there is hype within the company that they provide the best benefits. Office parties are quite lavish, but are the only highlights for fun in the entire year

Cons

Immature upper management with High school type discipline. Almost everything that is wrong is openly done with upper management approval. Profiling employees making assumptions about people and their ethics. Management frequently indulges in Voyeur like activity shadowing employees targeted for removal by management. Making it increasing difficult for these employees to establish a work life balance and completely stresses them out with increased scrutiny and fake performance allegations. This is a method applied to many people including me who have been forced to look outside the company. They even profile employees so they cannot find a job in other departments. On the other hand, the brown nosers get double promotions from Managers to Vice President levels. Management is empowered and encouraged to be intrusive with employees keep them under constant fear of retaliation. The Best Companies to work for-title isn't earned and is probably paid for by their extensive cash reserves of 50+ Billion dollars. Cutler Dawson is a creep who enjoys putting employees through this hell hole.

Pros

Great work-life balance. Great benefits- 7% 401K match, 3% pension, $1K HSA match. 4 weeks vacation and 2 weeks sick leave. Discounted rate on mortgage or auto loan. Company really values tenure and employee retention. Hybrid schedule with 3 times a week for people leaders, 2 times a week for individual contributors.

Cons

Ver relationship-based. If you can't network, you likely won't have much upward mobility. Can be bureaucratic depending on your leadership.

Pros

Pay can be decent at times Met some great people

Cons

Processors are the garbage can of the entire loan process. We literally are help to such insane standards with no support. Apparently it’s been this way for years and even high ranking supervisors say they feel like they’re talking to a brick wall when they voice our frustrations. Since my time here that have been at least 2 employees that I’ve heard of that have either attempted jumping off our building or actually did jump off. Like how can you not implement change when people are so stressed that they are jumping off our buildings? If anyone is reading this and wondering how the stress gets that bad it’s because the better you do the more money you get but they keep raising the bar so when you’re use to that extra income and now you have to do so much more to get that extra income that you’re used to it can break a person down and higher ups know how bad we’re breaking down. It’s completely normal for a half hour workforce to go on mental health leave during the summer which is our busy season and still nothing is done. I haven’t even been here a full year. What is it going to take to actually implement a change?
