Pros

Diverse product lineup which enables you to act as a consumer advocate instead of drinking one banks "kool-aid". Pay structure is reasonable, not a ton of micro-managing.

Cons

This company has outgrown the owner/founders intellectual and mangerial capacity and an outside CEO should be brought in. Constant Paranoia about loan buy-backs permeate through the company. No room for career growth. Salaried employees are not the cream of the crop and are underpaid and overworked. If you don't work at H.Q. good luck getting your deals processed on-time. Inconsistent underwriters.

Pros

Work from home. Good hands-on experience for someone with little to no administrative or mortgage industry experience.

Cons

Training and communication on my team was confusing and sub-par. Layoffs are frequent and without warning.
