Pros

Their are 18 Vice Presidents at NPF, none African American, Hispanic or Asian. So it's a pro if you are white.

Cons

I've worked at New Penn Financial for 3 years and never received a raise. This wasn't do to performance, no one in the company received a raise. This was supposedly due to the harsh months of refinancing and home purchases that the company endured. However, this did not effect the VP's who drove to work in their newly purchased Mercedes Benz, BMW and Jaguars. I've even heard how while there are 0 Black managers at New Penn, they will bring in people from outside the company to manage black employees who have been there for years while they themselves have no experience. I've even heard of an employee who dangled a noose in a black coworkers cubicle, and he was not suspended or fired. All in all, if you are an ambitious white go-getter, New Penn Financial is the place for you. If you are a minority, Do Not work at this place!

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
