Pros

Underwriting is very quick however, its only because the loan officer does ALL the work upfront. Heaven forbid you have an income discrepancy your file will sit there and not be worked until its cleared. This is a very family friendly environment. If you have a family and are able to balance your work time and min. pay, this is a good place for you.

Cons

The money, you have pay back $1500 every month, they say for leads. The leads are hit and miss at best. The initial training is a joke. If your not self motivated and catch on quick, your going to get a slow start. The normal ramp up time in this industry is 60 days, mentally and financially prepare for 90 at New Penn. If your planning on making the money you are use to at other places , DON'T. Its not going to happen. Its not a purchase driven company in a purchase driven environment. The average person is doing 2-3 loans for about $800k ( this is generous) =$5200 - $1500.00 (payback/leads= $3700 before taxes.

Pros

I get to work remotely. They have a good retirement plan/401K. I work autonomously with very little oversight, meaning there's no micromanaging. They are great with holidays and time off. Very inclusive and socially aware. Those are two reasons I've remained employed by them.

Cons

The salary is lower than preferred. I've worked two years with zero pay increase because "no pay increases for remoter employees". The health insurance is lacking and not fantastic, but I'm not sure that's really a con since nearly every health insurance plan in America is lacking.

Pros

- Great work/life balance - Awesome coworkers - Lots of opportunities to try new things and be innovative

Cons

- Senior leadership does not value remote workers and doesn't get to know them/engage with them - Frequently lays off remote employees, regardless of performance, achievements, or job role, sometimes without offering options to move or relocate. They also on occasion use underhanded tactics to pressure remote employees to leave so they don't have to pay out severance. Lastly, unless required by your state's law, they never pay out your remaining time off - If you start underpaid, you will remain underpaid even after promotions - Job performance does not impact yearly bonuses/increases. Pay doesn't keep up with inflation
