      Still some tread left on the tires...

      Pros

      Formerly a fantastic company to work for. Benefits were second to none with perks that few other employer could offer. Relocation program was stellar. Employees were well taken care of, respected and growth opportunities abound. Then Cerberus happened...a typical greedy investor with no comprehension of how to treat your most valuable asset (EMPLOYEES!!!!).

      Cons

      Long hours. Executive leadership was (obviously) greedy and overcompensated. Middle to upper management; however, really understood how to treat employees well. Cerberus completely slashed benefits, dwindled compensation and misguided employees with bogus promises and deceptive management. They deserve to see their investment in shambles. Karma.

      Pros

      They supported a balanced work/personal life. One was not looked down on or held back for future opportunities just because one needed a vacation every year or didn't want to work 12 hour days. In fact, 12 hour days were seen as a sign of a problem, and that problem was dealt with.

      Cons

      I was with a satellite office that had an excellent rate of turning foreclosures into homes sold. The corporate office was rather stodgy. Their larger (than San Diego) servicing site in Horsham PA had a time-tested, never-changing way of doing things. Even though we handled the poorer credit loans (thus, more foreclosures) and had a higher turnaround rate, Horsham still looked down on San Diego as renegades.

      Pros

      used to be a fun place to work where they really took care of the employees. they used to give great bonuses each year when the company was doing well and always had an awesome annual employee and family event that was totally free. They also had a "partner program" where those selected got 6 weeks paid time off. was easy to move between groups if desired too for career variety or enhancement.

      Cons

      too closely tied to the downturn in mortgage industry. they have gone through several layoffs in the past couple of years, the last big one being 5000 people worldwide
