Pros

- Great people - innovative, motivated, loyal - Good chances to advance if you're willing to do the work - Leader in its field - this needs to be balanced against the fact that over 250 competitors have gone out of business - Surprisingly advanced in technology for the mortgage industry - more like a Commercial Bank in terms of its investment in IT

Cons

- The mortgage industry has imploded - Leadership revolving door has made it difficult to maintain focus - The company is in survival mode but this also has led to the ability to do things rapidly to "save the company"

Pros

The numerous changes that have happened in the last 2 years make it difficult to provide feedback on current environment. If you are willing to take a risk, it can be a positive experience. Do your homework, ask questions, and be prepared for daily changes. Those who can disengage from their work role will most likely be fine. During my tenure the perks and the people made the long hours equitable. The current leadership has changed so often I can not speak to how that impacts those working at GMAC today. Most of my contacts have been laid off or left for new roles in other organizations.

Cons

Any job has a down side. The collaborative mindset of the past has been replaced by fear and distrust. The people focused culture made the above target performance expectations tolerable. Over the last 24 moths, benefits continued to be reduced as did the “balance life focus” of the past. I was grateful for the opportunities but was not willing to be just a number
