Axos Bank reviews

Underpaid, so it make people apathetic

I was hired as an entry level appraisal analyst with a low hourly wage. As an entry level position I was expecting some training but to my surprise they don’t have a training program. I was there for six months and received less than 30 minutes of training my entire time there from management. I asked the senior employee some questions regarding appraisal procedures and he didn’t know simple entry level procedures! Appraisal management lacks business knowledge and only knows administrative tasks. You will only learn administrative tasks and not how to be a business savvy appraiser. I was wondering how the senior employee who has been there over five years lacks appraisal knowledge and still working at the bank. I quickly discovered to survive in the unit you must spend most of your day with remedial administrative tasks and not growing as an appraiser. You also must go beyond becoming, “Management’s pet to stay employed.” Management favors their senior employee but he creates a toxic environment which is allowed because he is management’s pet. This is what I was told by many colleagues and witnessed. You will have no career opportunities, horrible compensation and benefits, the appraisal department culture and values are toxic, and you will not have any work/life balance.
